Hi everyone! I’ve just published two distinct free music packs on itch.io and I wanted to introduce them here—right at home in our community space where we can share tools, ideas, and feedback.

Contemplative Fantasy Music Pack

Inspired by games like Zelda, Ori, and Studio Ghibli films, this pack is built for moments of quiet wonder and narrative depth. You’ll find:

  • A menu theme (“Ravi de te revoir”) and pause loop (“On a tous besoin de temps”)
  • A 10-minute in-game piece (“Déjà Vus”) in both one-shot and loopable form, plus ten 1-minute segments for modular layering
  • A short, loopable credits theme (“À une prochaine fois”) All tracks run at 120 BPM and are provided as WAV, MP3, and OGG, complete with metadata and a custom free-to-use license.

Indie Meditations (Minimalist & Cozy Vibes)

For moments when your game needs space to breathe, this pack offers ten 1:28 loops in F (major, minor, or modal) at a steady 120 BPM. Perfect for tutorial screens, village strolls, ocean rafts, or volcanic ascents, each track carries a subtle emotional weight without overwhelming your scene. Provided under CC BY 4.0, these loops are ideal for menus, level ambience, or background storytelling.

Why I’m Sharing Here

I’ve used the itch.io community posts to highlight these packs because I believe in building tools that genuinely support your creative process. Whether you’re prototyping, jamming, or polishing a final build, I hope these soundtracks help set the right mood without adding friction.

If you try either pack, please let me know how it fits into your game—or if there’s something you’d tweak. Your feedback helps me shape future releases (and yes, there are more packs in the pipeline).

Thanks for reading, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts!

The first link works, but it seems like the second one was taken down?

I really like your sense of jazzy composition on the one that's still live, with my only critique being that the drums and apparent lack of drum experience drags the experience down by a few points. Your piano work is amazing, but I definitely think you'd do well with a collaborator who can handle drum composition, use better kits and not just smash the crash, rides and splashes all the time for 'dramatic effect' repetitively. Also, someone with mixing experience could make the whole experience less sterile and potentially more 'organic' sounding rather than seeming like a bunch of scattered hits across the piano roll.

Very excellent composition skills though, and I think you could really take some of this even further into scoring games (even bigger indie ones) if you have a drive and loads of passion to do something like that. Thanks for sharing these, as well!

Hey Glitch Labs,

Thank you for your comment, it's much appreciated :) 

I think I might have changed the URL at some point for the second link (?) Sorry about that! You can still access the packs on my profile. 


Regarding your criticism about drums and mix, I do agree that they can be underwhelming in comparison to the other instruments/details. To be honest, I had less than two days to do this track and three more for a Godot Jam and this is the result, unnaltered. I'd do something better with actual time to care about the little things and not streamline it as I did. 


All that said, I'm still pretty happy with the result given the time I had and do listen to what you say every time I listen to the tracks myself :) 

I promise I'm better at drumming than that :D

Cheers,
Yanni
