Pixabay is one of the resources that I frequently include in my recommendations for sources of images and video clips to use in slideshow and video projects. This morning I got a notice from Pixabay informing me of Pixabay’s audio collection. I’m not sure how long it has been there, but I didn’t notice it until I got the notification.
Pixabay’s audio collection features instrumental recordings across a wide range of genres. You can listen to the tracks in their entirety before downloading them. Like all other media on Pixabay, you can download and reuse the sound tracks for free. And as they state in the terms of use, you don’t have to cite them but it is appreciated.
I plan to add Pixabay’s audio collection to my Practical Ed Tech Guide to Finding Media for Classroom Projects.

If you’re looking for some background music for an end-of-year slideshow or video, take a look at Pixabay’s collection of free and royalty-free music.
