Watched an episode and it's really well made. Where is the filming location? I'm guessing Florida?

Thanks for checking it out...I really appreciate it! And yes, it's the east coast of Florida. :-)

A Request to Everyone:

If you can, please consider making a small donation on my website to support my work. The synthesizers I use to create free music for everyone are very expensive (2 Korgs and a Yamaha.) I actually have to make monthly payments on them and donations from the creative community really help me a lot to pay for them. Thanks in advance.  :-)

That said, I managed to get some new tracks done for everyone. Free to use, of course, with attribution:

On my Fantasy 10 page:
DESERT MYSTERY â€" (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/fantasy-10/

On my Sci-Fi 9 page:
BLAST OFF â€" (Looping)
https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-9/

And on my Events/Travel 2 page:
COUNTRY CELEBRATION
https://soundimage.org/events-travel-2/

Be well and stay healthy.

If you've been following my music sharing thread over the years, you know that I'm not one to toot my own whistle, but I've been getting some very positive feedback about "Dune's Island" from parents and teachers so I included a "Praise for Dune's Island" page on the site.

Given the current environmental situation, I believe that this is a very important project. Getting the word out about it is a massive challenge, though...especially since it has no advertising budget. If you think "Dune's Island" might be helpful to someone you know, please share it with them. Thanks in advance!

Thanks, guys, I sincerely hope it's helpful! Getting the word out is a massive challenge...please help us share it with the world!  :-)

Here’s our page where you can access all of the episodes. I think it looks pretty good for a community project!

I had always intended "Dune's Island" to be an immersive learning world. The idea was to produce films that teachers and home educators could actually pull lessons from to share with their students. After completing the episodes, a team of science teachers went through the films and created curriculum for grades K-5 that ties into the episodes.

Here's a link to it: https://www.dunesisland.org/curriculum

Please feel free to share it!

They sound great and are a cool way to support my work. :-)

If anyone happens to wonder what I get up to when I’m not creating music for everyone, I write and direct films that hopefully help kids (and grownups) learn important things.

Here’s a link to the page on my new site where you can freely access all of the “Dune’s Island” episodes. I’ve enabled the download function on Vimeo so you don’t even have to be online to share it with your kiddos.

https://www.dunesisland.org/episodes

Enjoy…and please feel free to share with anyone who might find it useful.

Stay safe and healthy.

If you want an Ogg version of a track that isn’t available yet, just email me and I’ll be happy to create it for you and put it on Gumroad.

Be well.

Hi everyone,

If you happen to have kids (or know someone who does) here's a brand new free resource that I hope is helpful. It's a website for my video learning series, “Dune’s Island,” which aims to teach kids environmental stewardship in a really fun way through stories and characters. Within the site you can freely access all the episodes, support documentaries and even tie-in curriculum (like vocabulary, math problems, writing prompts and more.)

In the coming weeks, I’ll be expanding the site with all kinds of activities and more cool documentaries. Eventually, I'd like to incorporate VN style stories as well. If you feel that the site could be helpful to others, please feel free to share it on social media. In the meantime, as with all my work, any and all feedback is welcome and very much appreciated. Enjoy and stay safe.

I'll be expanding it with all kinds of cool activities and more fun documentaries, but I think it's a good start.

Hi everyone, I’ve been super busy, but I did manage to get a few new tracks done…all free to use with attribution:

On my City/Urban 2 page:

BREAK IN_v001 - (Looping)

SODIUM VAPOR_v001

SODIUM VAPOR_v001 (Looping)

https://soundimage.org/city-urban-2/

I just opened the Sci-Fi 9 page with this brand new track:

SLIMY ALIENS FROM OUTER SPACE! â€" (Looping)

https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-9/

My Sci-Fi 8 page got a bit too big, so I moved these two tracks to the new Sci-Fi 9 page as well:

DESOLATE STREETS IN A MACHINE WORLD â€" (Looping)

ELECTRIC DRIZZLE â€" (Looping)

Enjoy…and have a good week!

Big news, guys! All of my tracks on my Dark/Ominous page are now available as very high quality Ogg files. They sound amazing…almost as good as the original WAV files that they were created from…and are much much smaller in size…perfect for videogames. Give them a try.

https://soundimage.org/dark-ominous/

On that note, some people have asked me why I’m offering Ogg files when they can simply convert my free MP3 tracks to Ogg themselves. You are certainly welcome to do this, but it won’t increase the quality of the tracks at all because you’re starting with MP3. The reason my Ogg files sound so great is that I’m creating them from my original WAV recordings.

That said, this week’s new free tracks are:

On my Fantasy 10 page:

SKY DRIFTERS â€" (Looping)

SKY DRIFTERS 2 â€" (Looping)

https://soundimage.org/fantasy-10/

On my Positive / Upbeat page:

THE BALLOON HEADS DAY OUT â€" (Looping)

https://soundimage.org/positive-upbeat/

On my Puzzle Music 5 page:

FUNKY PUZZLER â€" (Looping)

https://soundimage.org/puzzle-music-5/

And on my Sci-Fi 8 page:

DESOLATE STREETS IN A MACHINE WORLD â€" (Looping)

ELECTRIC DRIZZLE â€" (Looping)

https://soundimage.org/sci-fi-8/

Enjoy…and keep being creative!
