Greetings fellow creatives, If anyone is interested, I was recently asked to do an interview for a website called Exilian. Hopefully my answers were entertaining and (somewhat) intelligent…lol. Here’s a link if anyone wants to check it out: https://exilian.co.uk/articles.php That said, this week’s cool new textures are on the following pages: TXR – BRICK - Seamless Some really interesting brick textures. https://soundimage.org/txr-brick-seamless/ TXR – ROCK/STONE – Seamless Some new stone textures that could be used for old roads, paths, castles, etc. Some have grass between the stones, too. https://soundimage.org/txr-rockstone-seamless/ More music is on its way as well as some cool new city ambient sounds. Keep being creative!

Hey guys, I’m a bit under the weather, but I did manage to get a couple of new tracks done: On my Dark/Ominous 2 page: MIDNIGHT FOG – (Looping) – What creeps though the fog? This track might go well with my other one, “Midnight Mist.” https://soundimage.org/dark-ominous-2/ On my Nature/Science 3 page: DEEP SKY OBJECTS – They shimmer silently in the night sky like ancient jewels. Most can only be seen with a telescope. The light passing through my lens and into my eye left these objects long before humans walked the Earth. Perspective is humbling. https://soundimage.org/nature-science-3/ Like all of my music, they are completely free to use with attribution. Enjoy!

Happy July! This week we have more new fantasy textures to add to my 4000+ images: A bunch of new fantasy ground images here: TXR- Ground https://soundimage.org/txr-ground/ Here's a new charred-looking fantasy brick texture: TXR- Brick -Seamless https://soundimage.org/txr-brick-seamless/ And a new fantasy stone/brick texture: TXR – Rock/Stone - Seamless https://soundimage.org/txr-rockstone-seamless/ All are free to use with attribution.

Thanks in advance…and please feel free to share your projects…I love to see how creative people are using my work!

Another super-busy week last week, but I did manage to create a bunch of new grimy metal textures. They live here: TXR – Metal - Seamless https://soundimage.org/txr-metal-seamless/ 100% free to use with attribution. More cool new music tracks are on their way later in the week. See you then!

One request that I received on social media is for various coin sounds, so here’s a brand new page devoted to that: SFX - Coins https://soundimage.org/sfx-coins/ As always, feel free to edit as needed. Enjoy!

Any requests?

Hi everyone, Here’s a brand new track on my puzzle music 4 page: “ELECTRIC RAINDROPS” – (Looping) – Perhaps for a quiet, methodical puzzle with a hint of mystery (and quirkiness.) https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-4/ Continuing to build up the ambience section of my site…(which is in dire need)… here are some more new ambiences on my AMB - Sci-Fi Ambience page: “MIDNIGHT CYBER STREETS” – For a creepy, deserted nighttime situation perhaps. https://soundimage.org/amb-sci-fi-ambience/ “FAILING GRID” – Perhaps in a dystopic cyber world. https://soundimage.org/amb-sci-fi-ambience/ As always, if you happen to use my work in your project, send me a link…I’d love to see it!

Hey there, I’ve posted some more wild cartoon-style texture images derived from glass objects: TXR – GLASS – Cartoon https://soundimage.org/txr-glass-cartoon/ As always, please remember that they are meant to be building blocks rather than polished textures, so feel free to edit / alter / mash / etc., as needed. Don’t forget to check out my learning series that teaches environmental responsibility in a fun way through stories and characters. The premise is this: How can we expect children to be the future stewards of the Earth if they don’t feel connected to it?? Please share with family, friends, teachers or anyone who might find it useful. https://soundimage.org/dunes-island/ Have a good week!

Greetings Earth People, This week’s new music tracks are: On my Sci-Fi 7 page: "INVASION!" – They’re heading this way! Run for your life! Aliens? Zombies? Slimy monsters? Something else entirely? https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-7/ On my Funny 6 page: “PARTY GHOULS” - Rockin’ it in their haunted party mansion. This track might be fun in a goofy Halloween-themed game or something like that. https://soundimage.org/funny-6/ And two tracks on my Positive / Upbeat page: "OF SUMMERS GONE BY" – Here’s a high energy 80’s-style piece with a sweet, slightly magical feel that might sound nice in a game, video or perhaps something else. CAREFREE DAYS AT PELICAN SHORES – Carefree and creative…bouncing around town without a worry in the world. Wouldn’t that be great? https://soundimage.org/positive-upbeat/ All are free to use, as always, with attribution. If anyone has kids or younger siblings, I've created a fun environmental learning series that (I hope) will engage them through stories and characters. The organization I made it for uses the films all the time, and I'm sharing them with the rest of the world. Please feel free to check them out and share with friends, parents, teachers or anyone else who might find them helpful. https://soundimage.org/dunes-island/ Keep being creative and have a good weekend!

Greetings fellow creatives, I’ve posted new cartoon-style texture images here: TXR – GLASS – Cartoon Some wild textures here… https://soundimage.org/txr-glass-cartoon/ TXR – METAL – Cartoon Some dirty metal textures… https://soundimage.org/txr-metal-cartoon/ TXR – ROCK/STONE – Cartoon https://soundimage.org/txr-rockstone-cartoon/ Please keep in mind that they are meant to be building blocks rather than polished textures, so feel free to edit / alter / mash / etc., as needed. Btw, if you happen to have kids (or know someone who does) I’ve created a learning series that teaches them environmental stewardship in a fun way through stories and characters. It was my first try at making films with a DSLR…(they can be very challenging to work with in the field)…but I think they came out pretty well. The organization I made them for was very happy with them and uses the films all the time…hopefully others can benefit from them as well. Please feel free to share with family, friends, teachers or anyone you know who might find them useful. https://soundimage.org/dunes-island/ Enjoy!

Another super busy week…ugh…but I did manage to get a couple of new tracks done. Free as always to use with attribution: On my Horror/Surreal page, we have: CREEPY ACTION – (Looping) – This track might sound cool in a quick moving horror game…or perhaps something else that combines action with creepiness. It came out pretty well…if you need something like this, give it a try. https://soundimage.org/horrorsurreal/ On my Puzzle Music 4 page: CRYSTAL PUZZLES – (Looping) – This track might sound nice in, well, a puzzle game involving crystals….or perhaps other shimmering objects, light rays, etc. It has a techno feel to it as well. Should sound pretty cool under sound fx. https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-4/ Btw, if anyone happens to have kids (or know someone who does) I’ve created a learning series that teaches them environmental stewardship in a fun way through stories and characters.
