Just Uploaded Tons of MUSIC

Hey everyone, the open game development community has helped me chase dreams over these last 10-15 years, so as a way of showing my thanks I'd like to give back to the community by sharing a ton of music I've developed which you may use for your own games.

Sometimes the focus was on game/film soundtracks, sometimes it was whatever inspiration I felt at the time, and sometimes it was just pure, raw musical experimentation. The songs cover a wide range of sound, instruments and moods. You might find them very strange, cool, or not useful at all. I don't mind either way.

The music is released under Creative Commons.

The uploads are as follows:

  • barren scrapyard 2
  • cnc machine
  • sylph
  • uto
  • ova
  • away
  • bent time machine
  • barren scrapyard
  • fantasy
  • mountain
  • other worlds than these
  • osmosis
  • shelf life
  • vanish
  • mysterious garden
  • plot
  • plot device
  • placid
  • piano 5
  • melede
  • melede deux
  • arbor
  • lids 2
  • riff 5
  • antehymn
  • undone
  • salem, 1692
  • wind song
  • forest
  • field of stairs 4
  • rupture

These songs haven't been mastered, but the mixdowns should sound decent enough. Some of them might not be "final" versions or as long as you'd want them to be, and I may choose to elaborate on one or more of these later down the road, so I can only offer them as they are now.

You can (temporarily) find the songs in the recent uploads section on this site, or by clicking my forum name and browsing my uploads. I also have more songs available at my website - http://glassocean.net.

If you decide to use one of these songs, please leave a comment here explaining what the project is and/or how you intend to use it. I do enjoy knowing when my work is being used and I might even promote your game on my website :) Also please remember to attribute the musical works to the artist (me) in your credits, see the How to Give Credit section here.

Also feel free to ask questions, drop some feedback, etc.

I am working on a project in RPG Maker VX Ace and I'd love to have use of one of the songs on your list.

Fantasy.

It'd make for a great title page song, better than the annoying default, and I'd be willing to credit you for it as well. 

Just working on a game right now for RPG Maker VX Ace

That's very kind, I hope it inspires you to finish your game. Link me to your project's website when you have one :D

I'm using Antehymn, Away, and CNC Machine in a top-down shooter I'm working on. They work with the game's pacing and general theme and give the game a professional sound (I usually neglect audio when making games. I'll probably be using Barren Scrapyard 2 for the main menu, when I get to that. Thanks for sharing the great music you do.

Current test-build (unity webplayer): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/71638665/unity/TOPDOWN/index.html

Feel free to message me with your projects, collaborations, requests, etc. I am not likely to respond.

@capbros I hope you find a use for one :)

@Teh_Bucket That's a fun test-build! Ran smooth in IE11. I take it there will be some missions eventually? The combat and flocking AI feels dialed in. Thanks a lot for sharing, and I definitely appreciate the attribution. I'll check back with you later for a progress update, if you don't mind :D

Hi! Thanks for the awesome music! I'm using some of it in my game Otherworld. The game is currently in alpha state, but you can find it here.

Also, I'm probably going to have a newwer version up by tomorow, if you want to see the game.

Yottabyte1024, that looks interesting! This is a free game? I like that graphics style, just wish there were a few more screenshots I could check out first. But thanks for sharing, I'll give it a download. :D

Hi there! Thanks for the music! I'm looking to use Ova in a commcercia release game that was made during ludum dare. I've decided to fix it a bit and ship it to stores. I listened to Ova and was looking for a Bramblebrush soundalike and something more spy like and this seemed okay for now. Thanks for the music!
