Up this week: another new library and over 4,000 new tracks added to Alpha Music Libraries!
New Library Alert: Sonic Librarian
Sonic Librarian is a hot library of over 90 albums. Founded in 2003, SL has plenty of contemporary sounds as well as a handy collection of theatrical-grade sound design elements. SL music has been heard by millions of listeners and boasts a staff of 20 versatile composers specializing in a vast array of styles including funk, blues, rock, metal, techno, hip-hop, symphonic and orchestral. There’s some fun stuff here: take a look at Montage Worthy Piano Thingies and I Got Yer Sports Package… Right Here. Click here to check it out.

Vol 70 Top Down And Drivin. Summer cruisin’, roadhouse country.
Kitsch – Euro Cool (ALIBI225). The guys from Alibi score with these retro summer-splashed cool themes.

Featured Album/Playlist of the Week
Commercial Cuts: Generic Advertiser Jingles.
Here’s something you didn’t expect: buried in the massive 5 Alarm Music catalog is a library called Mediatracks. Lots of great retail beds here, but also a great collection of generic advertiser jingles. Many tracks have a sung slogan as well as a plain music bed. Give them a shot for client demos and presentations – you never know. You can see the whole Commercial Cuts collection in the Generic Advertiser Jingle playlist here. And check out the Christmas cuts as well!
Don’t Forget: Check out the Events tab for Holiday Playlists.
Just a reminder that we stay on top of upcoming holidays and highlight stuff for your convenience. Right now we have a bunch of patriotic stuff for the 4th of July and a collection of organ baseball beds. Let us know if there’s anything you’re looking for.
