Royalty-free music for YouTube, podcasts, and other independent video and audio projects

My name is Rob Reed. You can find out more about me here at my regular blog.

The short version of me is that I am a disciple of Jesus Christ, a husband, a father, a son, a lawyer, a worship leader, and a songwriter.

I write instrumental music cues for a music library that helps to distribute my music to a number of outlets, including television. My music has appeared on such diverse shows as Ritmo L.A. (a public access program catering to the El Salvadorean community in Los Angeles), Access Hollywood (NBC-affiliated entertainment program), and True Life (MTV). I am a member of ASCAP.

In an effort to built my musical brand, I am making some of my music available for non-commercial, royalty-free use in your video and audio projects, in exchange of a credit.

Love Lullaby

Story: I was in a mellow, loving mood and came up with the basic piano riff. It reminds me a lot of Henry Mancini, particularly the love theme that he wrote for the Gene Wilder/Richard Pryor/Jill Clayburgh movie “Silver Streak” (one of my faves) called “Hilly’s Theme” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lur5KIcTlWU).

Panacea Effect

Keywords: Aggressive, Anger, Angry, Authority, Bass, Beat, Bold, Clouds, Dance, Dark, Driving, Eighties, Energetic, Energy, Lift, March, Move, Pump, Slither, Sneak, Suspense, Sweat, Upbeat, Victory, Work Out

Song Story: Continuing on with the “songs that start with P” theme (not on purpose), this song started with a bass guitar loop groove that sounded to me very much like one of my favorite bands “The Cure.” So, I added Cure-like synth effects, did a very basic drum, and went to town. This one is probably one of my favorite instrumentals that I have written in the last few years that has not yet had lyrics added to it.

Song Story: Was playing around with some synth sounds and came up with a basic engine of a song that reminded me a bit of Michael Jackson’s “PYT” (or Pretty Young Things) from the Thriller Album some thirty years ago. Thus, the title.
