OGG MUSIC PACKS AND TRACKS

For those of you who are new to my site, many of my tracks are also available in Ogg format.

Why use Ogg tracks?

1. They sound fantastic…almost as good as the original WAV recordings (but are much smaller in size.)
2. They tend to loop better (if need be.)
3. They’re a cool way to support my efforts.

The MP3 versions, as always, are 100% free to use.

So enjoy, stay healthy and keep creating!

Hey Everyone,

Content creators keep asking me if they can use my assets in projects intended to make money...

The answer is YES...please do! :-)

As long as you use my assets within projects and properly attribute me, it's perfectly fine. Here's a link to my attribution page:

https://soundimage.org/attribution-info/

What you CANNOT do is resell my assets outright or, say, make an original soundtrack from my music and sell that. That would be illegal. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

That said, this week's brand new sounds are:

On my Sci-Fi Ambience page:
"ELECTRO DRONE"
https://soundimage.org/amb-sci-fi-ambience/

"THE CLASSIC PRIVATE EYE"

https://soundimage.org/city-urban-3/

Enjoy, stay safe and keep being creative. :-)

Eric_Matyas 07-20-2022 05:23 AM

Greetings Fellow Creatives!

I've had some questions about how to properly attribute me when using my music. It's super easy.

Let's say, for example, that you're using two of my tracks, "MIND BENDER" and "NETHERPLACE" in your project.

If you're using only my music (and not music by other artists) then you would attribute me like this:

Music by Eric Matyas
www.soundimage.org

(The reference to my website doesn't have to be an actual link.)

Now, let's say you're using those two tracks of mine AND music by another artist or artists. In this case, you need to identify my tracks so people know which ones are mine. So you need to attribute me like this:

"MIND BENDER"
"NETHERPLACE"
by Eric Matyas
www.soundimage.org

(Again, the reference to my website doesn't have to be an actual link.)

All of this information can be found on the attribution information page on my site:

https://soundimage.org/attribution-info/

There's also information about how to attribute me in other kinds of projects, like podcasts, theater productions, etc.

If anyone has any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. My email address is on the homepage of my site.

Enjoy and keep creating! :-)

Eric_Matyas 07-26-2022 10:39 AM

Well, I don't "toot my whistle" very often, but I have to say that I'm very proud of this so I thought I'd share:

https://soundimage.org/praise-for-soundimage/

Btw, if anyone needs some custom music created, just let me know...I'd love to help out! :-)

Eric_Matyas 08-04-2022 12:04 PM
