Free music downloads

You can download bundles of long excerpts (two to five minutes) from all tracks on many of our CDs, which gives you the chance to get into the music properly, and even enjoy it in short form on your iPod (we don't tease, just try to seduce you into checking out the full story). You'll also find the bundle links on the relevant album page (and individual excerpts on the song pages), but here's the collection.

If you are not sure about downloading and compression (zipping), go to our Downloads help desk page.

The Stereo Society also offers additional selected complete tracks for free download
to audition before downloading, click on the mp3 links
you can also download large chunks of most of our tunes in mp3 or AAC (m4a)
go to the individual tune's page through any album collection
