Non Copyright Music Research

We decided to look at further music for the soundtrack for our trailer. Below is the list of websites we have obtained this music from:
incompetech.com/m/c/royalty-free/index.html?genre=horror
free non copyright horror music
findsounds.com
As a lot of this 'horror' music sounds very similar, we have decided to look at a range of styles.


Constancy Part 2
With this music track we simply did not think it was 'scary' enough because of the use of some sort of horn throughout the whole of the track.

Medusa
With this track we thought that all the sounds were too random. As we wanted something tense and simple for our teaser trailer, we have decided not to use this. This track with the random noises would be affective for a long trailer, for example by having a shot of a woman alone in a corridor, maybe in slow motion and then when the music gets more tense someone appearing would work well, as it would raise the tension, but because our teaser is short this means it would not work as well.


The House Of Leaves
This music (above) does seem tense because of the rising high pitch tone, but we saw how if we were going to include a tone like this it would have to be a lot faster and shorter. Also it would have to end in a better way, as this just suddenly gets quiet and we do not believe it would be affective for our trailer.


Kevin MacLeod - The Hive
This piece of music includes a lot of violin, which is something we saw as being quite cheesy, as it's something which would be used on a old styled horror film. We want our film trailer to be modern as well as tense, so we will not be using this. Also, this piece of music isn't very tense as there is no main beat giving a tense feeling throughout.
