Incometech is the creation of Kevin MacLeod, a very talented and generous music composer. Here are the bullets for why I think you should bookmark this site now:
- When Kevin says his music is free to use, that's what he means. He only asks for attribution, rightly so. Check out his FAQs for yourself.
- He is talented- very talented; and he creates all the music on his site himself. Check out this sample I downloaded from his site: Clenched Teeth, Action category
- His library of music is vast, but well organized.
- You can search by "Genre" and by "Feel" (Click on the screenshot in the pic to see his simple search engine interface.
- While he is very generous with his talent, he does accept donations on his site. All he asks for is $5 and you will get what others might charge hundreds of dollars for. And the donations are voluntary.
- Yes, he takes requests! In the unlikely event that you can't find the perfect score for your project, Kevin does have a service where he will write the piece you are looking for. Of course, this is a premium service, but it's nice to have this option.
Oh, and one other thing... for the record, I don't know Kevin, nor am I an affiliate of his. I'm just a fan who is blown away by his talent and generosity, a fan who wants to share this resource with you.

Good deed! I used Kevin MacLeod's service for my video promoting "Writers Gone Wild," and he has a lot of great music to choose from, in a wide variety of moods. I used one piece to open the video, so a few seconds' listening will show you how it can be used in the wild.
Thanks for your comment, Bill! I loved Kevin's piece that you used in your video. It's amazing how music sets the tone for the whole video.
Do check out http://www.jewelbeat.com/ for a good selection if music to use for your projects. Thanks.
