Royalty Free 70s Music: When Authenticity Wore Rather Excellent Trousers
For those moments when your content requires the sort of sonic authenticity that can only be achieved through generous applications of analogue warmth and the occasional burst of unapologetically enthusiastic brass. Rather like discovering a perfectly preserved recording studio from 1974, complete with wood panelling and questionable interior design choices.
Each piece captures that ineffable lo-fi essence – where carefully detuned piano notes meander through vinyl crackle like lost thoughts finding their way home. The drums shuffle and swing with just enough mechanical idiosyncrasy to feel charmingly human, while filtered samples float past like memories of jazz recordings half-remembered.
Perfect for creators crafting:
- Study sessions that require the sonic equivalent of a warm blanket and excellent coffee
- Late-night coding streams where focus should feel effortless rather than enforced
- Art process videos that deserve more than mere silence but less than full attention
- Lifestyle content seeking that particularly sophisticated breed of digital nostalgia
- Reading vlogs where the soundtrack should enhance rather than interrupt
A Note on the Sound:
You’ll find carefully crafted frequency curves that embrace their imperfections like well-worn leather chairs, and mixing techniques that make even budget headphones sound somehow expensive.
The collection meanders through tape-warmed melodies, gently quantized drum patterns, and bass lines that feel like they’ve been dipped in honey.
The seventies gave us disco balls and punk rock – a decade that couldn’t quite decide between hedonism and rebellion, so chose both. These grooves flow naturally into the 80s collection for extended retro projects, whilst sharing the authentic analogue warmth found in some jazz recordings. For the complete throwback experience, explore the entire vintage catalogue.

Revolution Radio: 60s Music
Apparently, if you can remember the 60s, you weren’t there. Luckily they managed to record music like it was going out of fashion. This collection captures that groovy, revolutionary, tape-hissy time to give your songs some flair (or was that 70s?) There may be some encroaching sounds from the surrounding decades, but don’t mind that, just listen and enjoy maaaaan.
