  2. 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!  :-)

  9. 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/

  11. Hi Everyone,

    I had another super-busy week (I seem to be having a lot of those lately) but I did manage to create a fun new music track to share with you:

    "SHUFFLIN' THROUGH CENTRAL PARK"

    It's on my City/Urban 3 page...here's the link:

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

    As always, it's 100% free to use with attribution. Attribution information is here:

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

    Enjoy and please stay safe.  :-)


  12. Happy Friday!

    If you happen to find my free assets helpful, please consider making a small donation on my website to help support my efforts. My site is 100% ad-free...I pay for everything myself and contributions from the creative community really help a lot.

    That said, you'll find this week's new free textures on these pages:

    FUR/CARPET - Artistic - Tile-able

    GROUND TEXTURES - Artistic - Tile-able

    https://soundimage.org/images-home-page/

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


  13. Hi Everyone,

    I've had some people ask me why I don't provide maps (like normal maps, roughness, ambient occlusion, etc.) with my texture images. The answer is:  I think it's better to let people generate their own maps from my images so they can make them (and, hence, their final materials) look exactly the way they want them to. 

    I've recently discovered a free tool called "Materialize" that does exactly that, and it works really well. Here's a link:

    https://boundingboxsoftware.com/materialize/

    That said, this week's brand new images are on these pages on my site:

    BARK - Artistic - Tile-able

    BRICK - Artistic - Tile-able

    CONCRETE - Artistic - Tile-able

    You can access them from here:

    https://soundimage.org/images-home-page/

    Enjoy!  :-)


  14. Hi Everyone,

    On my Classical Sounding page:

    "STRINGS OF SADNESS "
    https://soundimage.org/classical-sounding/

    On my Country page:

    "COUNTRY DOO WOP"
    https://soundimage.org/country/

    As always, they're 100% free to use with attribution, just like my 2400+ other tracks.

    If you can, please consider making a small donation on my site to help support my efforts.  :-)

    Have a good week and please stay safe.
