What music can I use as a theme for a podcast?

Paying for the music gives you personal rights to its use. Generally, that doesn't give you any rights to redistribute it to others. \n\nAs to the 8-seconds, it sounds like you're talking about application of the Fair Use provisions of Copyright law. These are tricky, and it's always a fuzzy area what constitutes Fair Use. Most courts still haven't come down with a bright-line rule on this issue.\n\nAnecdote: I did something similar a while back, for the equivalent of a blog (before blogs were called that). I contacted the legal/licensing department of whatever TV network or studio produced the show. Then I explained briefly that I wanted to use small clips of the music for a non-profit commentary on the show and asked what the licensing requirements are.\n\nThere is also another angle you can try. If you are broadcasting your podcast, you might be able to qualify for the mandatory broadcast licensing provisions of the copyright code. Again, this is a complex area of law and you should do a lot of research (and/or find an attorney) before trying to claim this as a defense.

Try Michael Buble, Sarah McLachlan, Marc Cohn, Dave Matthews Band... I like soundtracks too, they always have good music, even if it is orchestral. You can never go wrong with classics like Van Morrison, and the Ventures are cool too. Good luck!

Start your own website, and try finding a website where you can a make a podcast.  Also, you can upload music and other mp3's at soundclick.com.  I hope everything works out for you dude! ; )

You can get a midi of a song you like online (mp3 won't work because the file is too big, or something) and email it to your phone in a PIX message and then you can use it as your new ringtone. Good luck!

I just discovered this really fantastic site called Pandora.com, an offshoot of the Music Genome project.  (I'm not sure, you might need iTunes for it to run.)  All you do is tell it your favourite artist or song, and it pulls stuff out of the project and plays it. No commercials, either!\n\nBefore that, I used Yahoo! Music, but I disliked the commercials and the fact it would not transition between styles well - otherwise it worked pretty well.

Basically, you need instrumental music, but not classical. \n\nYou have many options and I suggest you spend some time on Amazon.com listening to samples. \n\nJazz can be an excellent choice: however it's so diverse that it's a bit of a hit and miss affair to find what suits you. Try looking for 'solo piano' or 'acoustic guitar'. \n\nNew Age music, as corny as it sounds, provides excellent background music. Two music labels you might want to check out are Narada and Windham Hill.\nhttp://www.narada.com/\nhttp://www.windham.com/index.jsp\n\nFilm music is also an excellent alternative: look for romantic movies, I think it's the best genre in this case. Don't waste time looking at *soundtracks* which are compilations of songs -- look for 'original score'.\n\nIf you're going for a really 'edgy' production, you might want to check some techno/ambient stuff like Aphex Twins, the Orb, and such. But that's only if you're targeting a very narrow and edgy audience.\n\nFinally, many ad companies use what are called 'loops' -- prerecorded all-purpose instrumental music samples that can seamlessly loop. You'll find a list of providers here, in the 'Sounds' section:\nhttp://www.bluevertigo.com.ar/bluevertigo.htm\n\nGood luck!

I think if it had a theme song, it should be an instrumental, as it would be hard to come up with lyrics that would be compatable with the intensity of the story. In addition, if you use an older classical piece that's in the public domain, it would eliminate some of the copyright issues.

Well, that depends...\nAre you a metal head or do you prefer something more mellowish? Or are you thinking of something in the realm of rock, cause pop, hip hop or rap just won't cut it. You need something that will fit your personal character, but not something cheesy either. email me at nozastribe@yahoo.com, I'd love to share some ideas with ya'
