WE NEED NEW MUSIC SOUND TRACKS

Hey everyone!  If you’re reading this blog, you’ve probably watched our show GIFT BAG ROBIN HOOD. You’ve may or may not have noticed that we have been using the same soundtrack.  Picking music tracks, or music “beds” as they are called in the business, is pretty important to the overall success of a show.  We’re very happy with the tracks we have, but at some point things start getting a little repetitive, so we want to spice things up a bit and get some new tracks for our upcoming episodes.

One of the problems in the past with getting music for a show is the cost and the ongoing royalties.  We’re just a little company, we can’t hire a composer or pay a record label a lot of money, and then on top of that pay them more every time the song gets played.

AUDIOMICRO

That’s were AudioMicro comes in.  AudioMicro is a new website that has excellent low cost stock music, royalty free music, sound effects, even free sound effects. They have over 100,000 tracks and growing. It’s a lot of great music and sounds for content creators like Stylit.TV.  We’re currently looking through their library for a few good tracks, and we thought “Hey, let’s get our users involved!”

HOW TO WIN 50 CREDITS

Here’s what you need to do

(1) Go to AudioMicro and find us a track that you think we might like. You might want to try the Electronic and Television sections first.

(2) Post the URL link, the name of the track,  in the comment section for this blog post.  Be sure to include your Stylit.TV user name so we can identify you, and maybe also why you like the track.

Here’s an example:

Hi, my Username is Ken.  I really like the track Big Beat by Soundroll.

PICKING THE WINNER AND STUFF

If we like the track enough that we use it and you’re the first person to post it we’ll give you 50 credits.    There’s no limit. Post 4 tracks that we like, we’ll give you 200 credits.  Just remember, it has to be a track we will use and you have to be the first to post.

Thanks in advance for helping us out and good luck!
