Podcast Storytelling

This American Life, Radiolab and the hundreds of other episodic podcasts have captured the imagination (and the ears) of the streaming world. Why? We’re human and ever since our lips began flapping, we’ve loved when someone can spin a good yarn. Music in these podcast stories is minimal but it is also absolutely essential: a plucked string, a warmly picked acoustic, mischievous pizzicato, wandering mallets, the odd woodwind, a neutral piano pattern or maybe a solitary bass line that bends at just the right quizzical moment. The music on this playlist has just enough personality to help you accent every moment in your storytelling. So whether you’re the VP of Production at Wondery or just a dude making up stories on his iPhone, this playlist of over 400 royalty free pieces of music will be everything you need to underscore your podcast.
