We just added a new album to the GovAccessMusic library: ElectronicaLoopy. There are several tracks that are more electronic in nature than our previous work.
These tracks will be useful when you are looking for something a bit off the beaten track. Go by and check it out!
Coming soon - a podcast and video demo of the new tracks added - keep watch here, or go ahead and subscribe to the podcast!

Where do you get your background music?
I ran into an interesting issue in the LinkedIn group. Someone posted an opinion stating that since their government access channel was hosted by XYZ cable company - who does pay royalties - they are covered under the XYZ cable company payment schedule.
This is FAR from true! The cable company is only paying royalties for the music they use in THEIR productions - not yours! You as a content creator (or the entity paying for the production) are responsible for royalties/tracking/etc. That's why it is such an advantage to use GovAccesMusic tracks for your productions - by license they are royalty-free, which means you have a license to use them in your productions for a loooooong period of time.
So why not just go by your local blank-mart and pick up some CDs cheap? There are a LOT of reasons:
So pick up some tracks from GovAccessMusic.com - our music is licensed for broadcast use, and all the tracks on the site are full length. That's so you don't waste time listening to 15-second commercial length cuts.
We also offer a discount for purchasing a full album's worth of music. Swing by the site and check us out!

- The music on those CDs is NOT licensed for broadcast use. It would be illegal to use that music for that purpose
- Often the tracks are of a lesser quality - which gives a really bad impression to your audience.
- Using music obtained illegally also sends the wrong message to your audience (hey, it's OK to rip off artists and musicians) and to the artists (who have little reason to create).
