by Evan Luzi | April 3, 2014

Thank you to Premiumbeat.com for sponsoring The Black and Blue this week! They’ve featured us many times on their blog and I even used one of their tracks for The Black and Blue’s welcome video.

Premiumbeat.com is a curated royalty free music website that provides high-quality music tracks and sound effects for use in new and traditional media projects. Being selective about which tracks are included in the library means a better selection and less time searching! Premiumbeat works with professional composers from around the world to ensure the library remains high quality and is constantly expanding.

With thousands of tracks in more than 30 styles, Premiumbeat music is ideal for websites, online videos, mobile apps, television, radio, feature films and other professional applications. While you’re on the site be sure to check out the Premiumbeat Blog for the latest news and tutorials on production and post-production.

As part of their sponsorship, Premiumbeat is giving away a $250 credit to their site! To enter to win, simply leave a comment on this post sharing what your favorite movie soundtrack is.

A week from now I’ll randomly select a winner and have Premiumbeat hook them up with the prize.
