Free production music for commercials

I wonder if you kind people could suggest some sources of free music for commercials for me?

I’m looking to build a library for our students to use in their commercial production projects and our stash is either a) missing or b) rubbish.

Discs are OK, download would be better. Obviously, we don’t have the budget to pay fees but nothing they make gets on air.

In my day, production discs like Carlin’s library were free – you’d pay PRS usage, of course. They might send you some if you ask nicely and plead educator’s poverty.

Otherwise there are plenty of public domain websites for production music. I don’t even know whether Carlin and the likes still send out CDs. Do they?

Try MusicRevolution.com , an innovative online marketplace for royalty-free production music with over 16,000 affordable, high-quality tracks. To mark the anniversary of our 2010 launch, MusicRevolution.com has created this page of royalty-free music tracks that are absolutely free to use for commercial production projects. I am the co-founder.

James, the production library MCPS music is now mostly on line. Like playkpm.com and then the BMG which I think covers Carlin?

killertracks.com

Lots here… unippmglobal.com

NOT free. But available under MCPS licensing.
