Hi everyone,

I've created over 2000 tracks of music and sound effects that you are welcome to freely use in visual novels, games or anything else you like. It's all original...all my own work. All I ask is to be attributed as detailed on my homepage:

http://soundimage.org/

I sincerely hope my tracks are helpful. Any and all feedback is welcome and always appreciated!

All the best,

Eric

Happy March,  Fellow Creatives,

This week's new free-to-use-with-attribution music tracks are:

"UNEASY ANTICIPATION_v001"_LoFi

Both tracks live on my Sci-Fi 11 page. Here's  a link:

https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-11/

Please don't forget about my Ogg music packs and tracks...they're a cool way to help support my efforts.  Donations help a lot, too. 

Enjoy!  🙂

Happy Friday Everyone,

Just wanted to share some new texture images...free to use, as always, with attribution. They are on these pages on my site:

GROUND - Artistic (Tile-able)

METAL - Artistic (Tile-able)

https://soundimage.org/

Have a good weekend and please stay healthy.  🙂

Happy 2022!

A big THANK YOU to those of you who supported my efforts in 2021...this wouldn't be possible without you. 

You rock!

That said, here's some brand new free music to start off the new year:

On my Fantasy 12 page, we have:

"ANCIENT GAME MENU"

https://soundimage.org/fantasy-12/

And on my Puzzle Music 7 page:

"MIND BENDER 2"

https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-7/

Enjoy, stay safe and keep creating!  🙂

Hey Everyone,

I have a couple of cool new tracks for you:

On my Chiptunes 5 page:

CYBERPUNK ARCADE 2
https://soundimage.org/chiptunes-5/

And on my Sci-Fi 10 page:

CYBERPUNK BARS
https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-10/

No, I’m not obsessed with cyberpunk music….well…yeah I am…sort of…lol.

Anyhow, enjoy (and please consider donating to support my efforts if you can.)

🙂

Thanks, I appreciate it!

Happy Friday!

You’ll find brand new free seamless texture images on these pages on my website:

Access them here:

OTHER NEWS

In keeping with my mission to make good-sounding music available to anyone, I’ve priced my genre music packs very low…they are about the same as an average donation. It’s like donating to support my efforts and getting something really cool in return…check them out!   

Hey guys,

Here are this week’s brand new free music tracks. I hope they are helpful. 

On my Chiptunes 3 page:

CAFFEINE CRAZED COIN-OP KIDS – (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/chiptunes-3/

On my City/Urban 2 page:

COOL MENU LOOP – (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/city-urban-2/

And on my Positive/Upbeat page:

SUMMERTIME FUN – (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/positive-upbeat/

Please stay safe and healthy…and don’t stop being creative!

Thanks for for supporting my work...it means a lot. :-)  And you're very welcome...I'm an indie artist, too, so I know how challenging it is working with very limited budgets...especially when I make my films. I sincerely hope some of my work is helpful to the community!
It’s been a very busy week, but I did get a few new tracks done for everyone. You’ll find them all on my Sci-Fi 9 page:

ROBO BOSS BATTLE – (Looping)
GRUNGE STREET – (Looping)
MOONLIT CYBER ALLEYS – (Looping)

https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-9/

Enjoy…and please stay safe (and healthy.)

Another Special Request to Everyone:

If you possibly can, please consider making a small donation on my website to support my work. The synthesizers I use to create free music for everyone are very expensive (2 Korgs and a Yamaha.) I actually have to make monthly payments on them and donations from the creative community really help me a LOT to pay for them. Thanks in advance.  :-)

That said, I managed to get a couple of new tracks done for everyone. Free to use, as always, with attribution:

On My Epic / Battle page:
“COMRADES ALWAYS” (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/epic-battle/

On my Fantasy 10 page:
“OF KNIGHTS AND KINGS” (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/fantasy-10/

Please stay safe and healthy.

Here’s our page where you can access all of the episodes. I think it looks pretty good for a community project! Please help us share it with the world. :-)

I finally reached 2000 tracks last week…woo hoo! Not too bad considering I started the site with 100 tracks.

Anyhow, I’m a bit under the weather this week…(back probs…ugh)…but I did manage to create a few new music tracks for everyone…free to use with attribution:

On my Fantasy 10 page:


 
FARAWAY WORLDS CALLING – (Looping) – Ready to go?

 
On my Chiptunes 3 page:

 
ARCADE GOBLINS – (Looping) – Running around Pixeltown, causing chaos. I’d love to hear this in a 2D arcade-style game. Fun stuff!

 
And on my Nature / Science 3 page:
EXPEDITION NORTH – (Looping) – Embarking for the frozen wilderness. This track might sound nice under the title screens of an adventure game.


 
In case you’re wondering, attribution information is here:
If you happen to use some of my assets in your projects, please feel free to share (if you wish.) I love to see how creative people are using my work!

Hey everyone,

For those of you who have been using my original music in your projects, I’ve had a good number of requests for uncompressed versions of my tracks, so I’ve begun making them available on Gumroad for a small fee to help support the site. The MP3 files that I make freely available sound very good, but the original uncompressed WAV files really sound incredible…give them a try!

If anyone is curious as to why I didn’t upload WAV files onto my site to begin with, the reason is that my web hosting service places limitations on file sizes and WAV files tend to be very large.

Anyhow, it’s going to take some time to upload everything, so if anyone has any requests for WAV versions of tracks you happen to like, just drop me an email and I’ll upload them to Gumroad for you. Feel free to convert to Ogg (or any format you like.)

That said, this week’s new free textures are on the following pages:

TXR – BRICK - Seamless
These might be really nice for castles.
https://soundimage.org/txr-brick-seamless/

TXR – WOOD – Seamless
Perhaps for old doors, structures, barrels or other things.
https://soundimage.org/txr-wood-seamless/

More music and ambient sounds coming this week.

Enjoy and keep being creative!

Greetings fellow creatives,

If anyone is interested, I was recently asked to do an interview for a website called Exilian. Hopefully my answers were entertaining and (somewhat) intelligent…lol. Here’s a link if anyone wants to check it out:

https://exilian.co.uk/articles.php

That said, this week’s cool new textures are on the following pages:

TXR – BRICK - Seamless
Some really interesting brick textures.
https://soundimage.org/txr-brick-seamless/

TXR – ROCK/STONE – Seamless
Some new stone textures that could be used for old roads, paths, castles, etc. Some have grass between the stones, too.
https://soundimage.org/txr-rockstone-seamless/

More music is on its way as well as some cool new city ambient sounds.

Keep being creative!

Happy July!

This week we have more new fantasy textures to add to my 4000+ images:

A bunch of new fantasy ground images here:

TXR- Ground
https://soundimage.org/txr-ground/

Here's a new charred-looking fantasy brick texture:

TXR- Brick -Seamless
https://soundimage.org/txr-brick-seamless/

And a new fantasy stone/brick texture:

All are free to use with attribution. Attribution information is here:

Have a good week!

Hi everyone,
I've been building a library of images that you are welcome to freely use in your projects. They are all original...all my own work. I think a lot of them could be made into cool textures for games.  All I ask is to be attributed as indicated on my homepage:
http://soundimage.org/
The images are on my "TXR" pages.  
I'm adding new ones all the time, so be sure to check back often. I sincerely hope that some of them are useful. Any and all constructive feedback is welcome and always appreciated.  :-)
All the best,
Eric

Hey guys,

More experiments with various game art styles. I’ve got some pixel art-style map templates here:

ART- MAP TEMPLATES
https://soundimage.org/art-map-templates/

You’ll need to scroll down to the bottom of the page.

It was suggested to me that they might also be useful as backgrounds. Feel free to edit and modify as needed.

Btw, if anyone happens to have kids (or know someone who does) I’ve created a learning series that teaches them environmental stewardship in a fun way through stories and characters. It was my first try at making films with a DSLR…(they can be very challenging to work with in the field)…but I think the films came out pretty well. The organization I made them for was very happy with them and uses the films all the time…hopefully others can benefit from them as well. Please feel free to share with teachers, family, friends or anyone you know who might find them useful.

Enjoy!

Hi everyone,

I’ve begun creating 2D game art that you are welcome to freely use in your projects. Some is pixel art, some is derived from 3D objects that I created, and others are backgrounds that might be useful in visual novels and interactive fiction. You’ll find them on my new “ART” pages on my website:  

http://soundimage.org/

The art pages are located at the bottom of the menu list on the right side of the screen.

At this point I’m experimenting with different styles and methods so hopefully I will be able to offer a good variety of things. Please feel free to modify / edit as needed. If you happen to find any of these images helpful and decide to use them, please attribute me in the “game art” section of your credits area.

Enjoy!

Greetings everyone,

Continuing my mad experiments with various game art styles, I’ve got some pixel art planets and space rocks here:

ART- SPACE
https://soundimage.org/art-space/

They live toward the bottom of the page, so make sure to scroll down.

As always, feel free to edit and modify as needed.

Enjoy!

Happy Saturday!
I’ve created some new island backgrounds that might be nice in visual novels, games, or other things.
They are here:
https://soundimage.org/art-backgrounds-nature/
Please feel free to edit as needed.
Have a good weekend!

You're very welcome...I hope some of my work is helpful!  :-)
