Free Music Friday: The Free Music Archive is an interactive library of high-quality, legal audio downloads.

They’ve got 5,000 free MP3s that you can download already, and more in the works.

And yes – you can go straight to the electronic music.

Every mp3 you discover on The Free Music Archive is pre-cleared for certain types of uses that would otherwise be prohibited by outdated copyright law. Are you a podcaster looking for pod-safe audio? A radio or video producer searching for instrumental bed music that won’t put your audience to sleep? A remix artist looking for pre-cleared samples? Or are you simply looking for some new sounds to add to your next playlist? The Free Music Archive is a resource for all that and more, and unlike other websites, all of the audio has been hand-picked by established audio curators.
