Incompetechincompetech.com“run by Kevin MacLeod of early YouTube fame! although, he supports giving his music to ai to train after and uses suno for some of his youtube tracks, so if you have qualms against ai, you might not want to support him.” - @slushiesand
Audionautixaudionautix.comrun by Jason Shaw, but doesn’t seem to be updated frequently anymore. “personally, i find Shaw’s music less interesting than MacLeod, but there are a few good ones.” - @slushiesand
Musopenmusopen.org“has recordings for many famous western classical music pieces. if that’s the vibe you want, it’s a great website! however, it’s only 3 downloads a month for free users. wikipedia also has creative commons recordings for famous pieces, but it’s not consistent.” - @slushiesand
Free Music Archivefreemusicarchive.orga creative commons UGC resource. Check each individual piece for their specific CC license before use!
OpenTracksopentracks.com/enLike FMA but mostly Japanese. Again, check individual pieces for their CC licenses. You may need to use a translator

thank you so much to @slushiesand for many of the music libraries btw!! our heart goes out to u. (- Kat from the Storyboard team)
