Electric Blues Band Background Instrumental Free Royalty Free Music Bed
The first chord progression I learned on guitar was the 12 bar blues. I have probably spent a measurable percentage of my life jamming out the blues live, at open mics and for fun with friends.
I remember when I was a kid wishing I had some great background tracks to practice improving blues licks over instead of just a simple acoustic track I recorded myself. So I figured that allot of people might also like that!
This new original blues/rock track is called “The Boom Born Blues”. It is an instrumental 12 bar blues in the key of A with a full band of electric guitar, bass and drums.

You could also use this as a commercial music bed, backing track, in slideshows, corporate presentations, website background, on hold music, podcast intro, YouTube video or student film score and any other production you want to. Or you could add vocals and a solo to make it a song.
If you are new to video production then the easiest way to add this audio clip to your video is by editing it in Windows Movie Maker which is a free program. You can also edit your home movies with simple cut and paste, the program is really easy to use.
I was reading this and working on a corresponding image when I was inspired for the title of this tune:
“Discover that the decomposing tree trunk and rotting leaves not only give birth to new life, but are full of life themselves. Microorganisms are at work. Molecules are rearranging themselves. So death isn’t to be found anywhere. There is only the metamorphosis of life forms. What can you learn from this? Death is not the opposite of life. Life has no opposite. The opposite of death is birth. Life is eternal.” – Eckhart Tolle

Epic Rock Instrumental: Stock Background Music Bed, Free Royalty Free MP3.
Here is a new 6 minute epic style indie rock instrumental called “Black Box in the Ground” with electric guitar, acoustic guitar, bass, drums and some synthesizer.
You can use it free and royalty free as a background track, music bed, or any other type of stock music you need for production.
Here is the full track MP3 you can download:
I tried to make this very structured so you can use it as an artist in a song on a CD.
Its in the key of D minor, here is the form: intro, verse, chorus, verse, chorus, bridge, verse, chorus, chorus, outro
I had also gotten a few soundtrack requests from people who want a long, powerful anthem to be added to my library.
Maybe you could also use this in a video, powerpoint presentation, commercial or on a website if you need a hard rock, explosive, driving sound.
Peace, Dan-O

Irish Celtic Traditional Folk Royalty Free Production Music
Hello, I had a request from a visitor to create some traditional Celtic Irish folk music and I thought that was a great idea (since I am Irish and all).
This upbeat song includes a full band with lots of instruments including fiddle, flute, bagpipes, accordion and mandolin. It reminds of something Gaelic pirates would dance a jig to in Ireland.
As usual this MP3 is a free royalty free online download you can use in podcasts and YouTube videos as per the creative commons license mentioned on the site.

Hip Hop Royalty Free | Free Instrumental Rap Beats
I saw the movie Splice this week which to me vividly illustrated the wild instinct we all have for freedom.
This made me think of the title for “Uncaged Czarina”, a bit of royalty free hip hop. You could also use this as an instrumental rap beat backing track:

Relaxation Royalty Free Music | Meditation Stock Music
I have had a few requests for relaxation royalty free music and meditation stock tracks that people can use for free as music for YouTube in their videos using the creative commons license.
I have mainly been a vocal songwriting artist but now I am starting to enjoy creating songs that are more like peaceful soundscapes – its feels good and helps calm my mind!
There seems to be allot of people in the world that enjoy listening to soothing music for reducing stress.
“Autumn Boy” is a hypnotic ambient piece that has a mix of distant wailing guitar, various middle eastern and Hindi/Indian instruments and some haunting violin. It turned out to have what I would describe as a deep ancient sound. It also has some native American chanting samples.

“Ambershire” is a peaceful oriental instrumental MP3 with Japanese and Chinese flute that is very calming and great to chillout to while you listen. You could use this for meditating or in Youtube videos about buddhism, tibet, eastern philosophy and nature.

I thought of this title after listening to Dan Brown‘s latest “The Lost Symbol” (loved it, can’t wait for the film). I would sum up the last chapter by embellishing this old proverb.

This might be great for a romantic Wedding slideshow or gallery. My daughters introduced me to “Love Song” which I think is one of the greatest tunes by Sara Bareilles. It turns out that unfortunately people can’t use it as music in their utube videos because of copyrights. So I decided to write my own with a similar modern romantic story which I always wanted to do anyway.
Now “Love Letters” has become one of my top 10 downloads.
Love Song Collection
Here is a collection of my original love songs. Just right click and select “Save Link As” or “Save Target As” to get the free love mp3 download:
Everything Begins.mp3 – An uplifting acoustic song about the start of a relationship. It’s a ballad with a folk rock sound.
EverythingBeginsInstrumental.mp3 – a remake of Everything Begins with finger-picking acoustic guitar and no vocals.
Its You.mp3 – Kind of sad song about missing someone and is slow compared to the others. It’s based on real email notes and poems just like “Love Letters”.
Our Song.mp3 – Modern pop rock song with a full band. It’s upbeat, a bit quirky and sort of funny.
“Nulcear MakeUp” and “I Am You, You Are Me” are on my Guitar Lyrics and Cut-ups album that you can also find on iTunes if you want to go direct to your iPod. These songs have a more indie alternative band sound.
Nuclear MakeUp.mp3 – About fighting, breaking up, making up and doing it over and over and over again!
I Am You, You Are Me.mp3 – Obsessive stalker vibe that people say sounds like Alice in Chains.
Here is my complete lyric collection and many are songs with love in the lyrics:

Love Letters Lyrics
All my life I was looking for somebody
Then I met my American girl next store, wild, shy and sunny
I stopped my search when I found you
And all I wanted was to say I love you too
I wrote a poem from your notes and love letters
Through every season I put them together
Then I added the lyrics that I wrote in New York
To write this love song for the one I adore
A beautiful story about you and me
How just one kiss from your pink lips sets me free
Woman I’m your best friend and lover
Thats the meaning of love you helped me discover
Chorus
You don’t have to test me cause we’re real
And my music is saying how I feel
I read you poetry and bought you flowers
Minutes went by that were really hours and they were ours
What is this spell that makes me love you?
You’re my everything and a dream come true
When I picture your blue eyes and long hair
It hurts cause I want to be with you there
I wrote a poem from your notes and love letters
Through every season I put them together
Then I added the lyrics that I wrote in New York
To write this love song for the one I adore
To write this love song for the one I adore
Thanks for listening.
Peace!
