    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!

    https://soundimage.org/txr-ground/

    https://soundimage.org/txr-rock-stone-fantasy/

    Hi guys,

    I’m in the middle of a big project, but I managed to get some new free textures done for everyone. They are on the following pages:

    TXR – BRICK - Seamless

    Some new fantasy cobblestone images. Maybe useful for paths and roads in fantasy-based games?

    https://soundimage.org/txr-brick-seamless/

    TXR - ABSTRACT

    Some new abstract textures. Maybe for sci-fi projects?

    https://soundimage.org/txr-abstract/

    Enjoy!

    Greetings fellow creatives,

    If anyone is interested, I was 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 ambience sounds.

    Keep being creative!

    Hey everyone,

    For those of you who have been using my original music in your projects, I’ve had a good number of requests for uncompressed versions of my tracks, so I’ve begun making them available on Gumroad for a small fee to help support the site. The MP3 files that I make freely available sound very good, but the original uncompressed WAV files really sound incredible…give them a try!

    If anyone is curious as to why I didn’t upload WAV files onto my site to begin with, the reason is that my web hosting service places limitations on file sizes and WAV files tend to be very large.

    Anyhow, it’s going to take some time to upload everything, so if anyone has any requests for WAV versions of tracks you happen to like, just drop me an email and I’ll upload them to Gumroad for you. Feel free to convert to Ogg (or any format you like.)

    That said, this week’s new free textures are on the following pages:

    TXR – BRICK - Seamless
    These might be really nice for castles.
    https://soundimage.org/txr-brick-seamless/

    TXR – WOOD – Seamless
    Perhaps for old doors, structures, barrels or other things.
    https://soundimage.org/txr-wood-seamless/

    More music and ambient sounds coming this week.

    Enjoy and keep being creative!

    Hi guys,

    New free images are waiting for your projects on these pages:

    ART – Cobblestones
    More mad experimenting. I made some pixel art style images from a couple of my cobblestone images. Maybe for castles and things? They look pretty cool scaled down. Feel free to edit / take samples from them / scale them as needed, etc.
    https://soundimage.org/art-cobblestones/

    ART – Brick
    Some new pixel art-style brick images. Trying to come up with some fresh new looks. Feel free to edit / take samples from them / scale them as needed, etc.
    https://soundimage.org/art-brick/

    MUSIC UPDATE:

    WAV files proved too large to upload onto Gumroad in any reasonable amount of time…(we’re talking about 1900+ tracks) so I’m uploading Ogg files instead. I’ve started with my Fantasy page. They sound really great…give them a try!

    Meanwhile, if anyone has requests for WAV versions of tracks you happen to like, feel free to contact me.

    Have a good week and keep being creative!

    More mad experimenting this week.

    I’ve been trying to create some new looks for pixel art-style images, specifically tiles that can be used in 2D games and things.

    On my ART – Brick page, you’ll find:

    A bunch of cool new brick tiles, 64 by 64 pixels each. Some have a 3D look to them.

    https://soundimage.org/art-brick/

    On my ART – Ground page, you’ll find:

    A variety of new ground tiles that could work for rocky surfaces, grass, sand, etc.

    https://soundimage.org/art-ground/

    MUSIC UPDATE:

    Super high-quality Ogg files are now available for every track on my Fantasy 1 page as well as my Sci-Fi/Space page. And for about half of the tracks on my Looping Music page.

    Eventually, they will be available for every track on my site.

    Meanwhile, if anyone has requests for Ogg versions of tracks you happen to like, just let me know and I’ll be happy to upload them for you.

    Enjoy and keep being creative!

    Hi guys,

    I’ve been super busy this week creating custom music for a bunch of indie projects, but I did manage some more mad experiments with pixel art-style wood tiles...128X128. You can download them freely here:

    https://soundimage.org/art-wood/



    OGG MUSIC UPDATE:

    All of the music tracks on my Horror/Surreal page can now be downloaded as very high-quality Ogg files. Halloween’s not too far off, so I’ll try to create more creepy music tracks this month.

    Meanwhile, if anyone has requests for Ogg versions of tracks that haven’t been made available yet, just let me know and I’ll be happy to upload them for you.

    Enjoy!

    Hey everyone,

    I just opened a new page of stone pixel art-style tiles. You’ll find them here:

    ART – Stone
    https://soundimage.org/art-stone/

    Feel free to edit as needed.

    I’ve also created a bunch of new ground tiles. They live here:

    ART – Ground
    https://soundimage.org/art-ground/

    As always, if you have any requests, feel free to pm or email me.

    I hope some of my work is helpful!

    I was busy shooting a film over the weekend, but I managed to do some mad experiments creating pixel art-style tiles. These were derived from glass surfaces, but might be used for other things as well. Free to use with attribution. Enjoy!
