21 Musical bits for people who make things

I’ve put together a zip file that has 21 MP3 Ditties. They’re short pieces of music that I’ve made when I needed music. I’m proud of them! - ZIP File Link

Please download and use my music! These bits are good for:
- putting under sped up video of making things
- time lapse
- travel times when you show going from one place to another
- anything else that you can think of.

I’m releasing them under the creative commons attribution license. You can use them for whatever you like, you just have to give me credit by having music - bre pettis brepettis.com in the end credits of the video. Of course it would also be nice if you’d tell me you’re using it and link to brepettis.com and mentioned me in your blogpost, but that’s really just icing on the cake. My goal here is for people to have access to the music I have made to use in my DIY videos.

I want to spread my wings and find new ways to create music for my videos. I feel like I’ve maxed out garageband now and I may get something like ableton live to play with to give me more options for making new music. Please send me an email or leave a comment telling me your strategies for making music. I’d love to hear how you make music!

Good stuff, I use Ableton live myself. I love it. I have never used much of anything else except Cubase a little. Once I was going to switch to Protools but I cant find any reason to spend more money since I’m comfortable with Ableton. I think you will like it.
