  2. Despite the size of this royalty free music library , musicalise.me is one to watch. Tracks are varied in style, from dance to classical, pop guitars and ambient. Not only do the tracks sound great and original, but the price is great too! $1 per license -and the license is not limited to a set number of projects or reproductions. Considering the prices for most Royalty free music library, this is a true bargain.
