OT: Searching for Music Bed

This may or may not be off topic but if it is then hopefully not by to far.

I am in the process of putting together a short :20 to :30 second video of a high school dance team. I saw a trailer for an upcoming movie called Take the Lead, (which can be viewed at …theleadmovie.com). At the end of the trailer the music bed is that of heavy drums and percussion and the video follows with fast cuts and lots of movement. This is the concept I had been thinking of for the high school dance team video. My question is: Does anyone have any suggestions as to what libraries might have a similar music bed or score? (for purchase of course) Thanks in advance for your help!

Tim, try taking a listen to the tracks at Freeplay Music. It's keyword searchable if there are specific instruments or tempos you're after.
I have no idea what their rates are but it doesn't cost anything to ask if you find something you like.
BTW, some time ago you were looking into Acid Pro 5 or Acid Music Studio. With either of these and some loops, you should be able to get very close to what you're after.

Sounds like the perfect ACID loops application to me. good luck - sounds like fun.

Thanks Mike!

Your right. I ended up buying Acid Music Studio to make a couple of dance mix’s for the same dance team and it worked great. They loved them.
I must admit I have already put together a bed with Music Studio that could work but it’s just not there yet. I don’t have a lot of time to spend on it at this point so I thought I would see what the forum had to suggest.
I’ll take a look at Freeplay Music.
Thanks for you’re your help Mike!
