Question 5

Is your music created by a human? Did you use any sort of AI tools in composing music?

Accepted Answer

All the music tracks in this website is created by me. Last time i checked, i am 100% human. 
No Artificial Intelligent tools was used and i'm not planning to use any AI tools in the future.

In composing music, i am using a midi controller connected to a personal computer with music softwares and virtual instruments.  I also used live instruments such as acoustic guitar and percussions.  My music software includes Cubase, Kontakt and Sampletank just to name a few.

Question 6

Can i upload a video with just your music, on youtube or any other platform?

Accepted Answer

No, you can't upload a video with just  my music, like showing it with just a single picture all throughout.  You must use my music with a sensible video content.

Question 7

Can you tell me some background about yourself?

Accepted Answer

Off course. I am a musician based in the Philippines and have been making royalty free background music since 2012, with over a thousand licenses sold.

Before that, I am a solo acoustic, folk music performer releasing my own songs and travelling and performing locally and abroad.  At some point, I was a music teacher, a lifestyle writer for a national paper, a music workshop facilitator and a cultural musician working with government agencies.

Creating royalty free music is almost a daily routine for me, my music keeps mounting up so I better share it with the world!

Question 8

I want to use your music but i can't make an attribution.

Accepted Answer

I understand there are situations where attribution is not possible like radio and tv ad, corporate presentation and other forms of advertisements.  In such cases you have to buy a Standard License, so that you use a specific track.

Our Standard License fee is 20$ per track, single use. You will receive a license file and an Mp3 and a Wav file upon payment. Payments are made thru Paypal.

Question 9

What if i need the Wav File aside from the Mp3?

Accepted Answer

As of now, this website has limited storage so i resorted to MP3 files.

But if you need a Wav File, you can email me ( through the Contact Page) the name of the track, and i can upload it to the "Requested" page within the hour.  Then  you can choose if you will purchase the mp3 or the wav version.  A Requested Wav File will stay online for a maximum of 3 working days.

You can request for a Wav File to be uploaded in the Requested page even if you are not sure to purchase the music.
