Lets talk about Music In this edition of Podcasting For Iâm talking to Cheyenne Hohman, the Managing Director of the Free Music Archive When I started planning this Podcasting For podcast, I searched around the Internet to find music I could use. I knew expensive licences were needed for using commercial music. Read about using commercial music here in the article about PRS. So I searched ârights free musicâ. Many of the sites I found offered music that was rights free, but you still needed to buy a licence â sometimes an expensive one. Then I searched âopen source musicâ and found a treasure trove called the Free Music Archive. Thatâs where I found the music I use in the Podasting For podcast â Cloudline from the Blue Dot sessions. There was a massive resource of all types and genres of music. I was a happy as a pig in well, you know. But I wanted to find out more, I wanted to know if I could recommend the Free Music Archive at freemusicarchive.org to other podcasters â but also to friends who love to explore music â and right away I can say, yes I do recommend it. Cheyenne told me about the site, where it emerged from, how music lover, podcasters, video makers and musicians use it. If you are not a podcaster, but love to explore music, freemusicarchive.org is a place to expand your music experience.
