Music has been a lifelong interest of mine. I am not a naturally gifted musican, a highly skilled performer or a fantastic composer, but I do love music and am happy to just get involved with music-making.
woow… really good… thnx…
Dude, I have been using your music for documentaries and stuff, thanks for the wonderful compositions and I hope you make more. Greetings from the Philippines!
Oh btw, don’t worry I give you credit for the wonderful music still.
Hello Lonzijun,
I would like to give kudos to your music composition “transect-no solo” of which I non-commercially (with credits) used for Leo Villareal’s “Buckyball” which is currently on exhibit at the Madison Square Park, NYC. http://www.madisonsquarepark.org/things-to-do/calendar/mad-sq-art-leo-villareals-buckyball
I went past by the square on January 16, 2013 and can’t help but noticed and be amazed at the 30 ft. structure. Being inspired by Villareal’s work and as a fellow artist, I videotaped just a portion of the structure to expressed my interpretation on this beautiful artwork. Since I’ve seen the ‘forest’ (the 30 ft.spherical colored lights structure) from afar, I concentrated on the ‘trees’ (the close-up intricate color light synchronization) as my self-resonation of the “Buckyball”. With this magnificent artwork, I have to pair it with an equally sublime music on a specific synchronized beat. Lo and behold, I came across your beautiful music. I came up with a tribute via this videotape and uploaded this to youtube – Madison Lights 2013_NYC:Lifeline of Existence. This is my interpretation — http://youtu.be/3wb3tWAaC8Y
Hope you enjoy my video of this two beautiful art pieces (sculpture and music). Thanks for the work that you do. Please feel free to direct anyone to this youtube link, if you so desire, and email me if there is anything I could be of assistance. Thank you.

i found your website from youtube. I would like to ask your permission if i can use one of your composition dream 12 for my school presentation ..
Sure, the song is free to use for non-commercial projects (like school presentations)
do you license any music to be used commercially?
Hi, you can check the terms of use (If you are doing this for your art work, it would fall under category C): http://longzijun.wordpress.com/music/free-background-music-series-terms-of-use/
hey guy i have using your music for my dancing game project
that is my home work i’ll give you a credit ;)
and thank u guys for the great music
that’s so awesome hope you make it more
Great intro music. Thank you for making it, and sharing it. You totally rock!
Great music, thanks for sharing it. I used it in my video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IyHB-LHuacw . Please, say if credit is ok. This is my first video without words, I hope next videos will be in better quality (in maybe with your music again…)… :-)
Hi, the use of music is fine. Are you teacher? I am one as well. Have you ever thought of doing English versions of the videos? That would be quite easy with the wordless ones as you would only need to change the opening slide and create an English title and video description.
Yes, I am math teacher.
What do you teach?
And yes, I have thought to make an English version. I wasn’t sure if I should do it in the way you suggested or simply add English title in the beggining slide (that is, to have both titles, Croatian and English, on the same slide) and put both titles (Cacroatian and English) in the Youtube-title…
The second version would be easier for me (one video edit and one upload), but your version would be more clear for users… I will think more about it, but first I must to make video better (better lights, no shakes etc.).
Also, my English isn’t perfect, so it is a little problem for me to make fine descriptions…
An English teacher. The reason I suggest a separate English version is that for many people, if they see a language besides their mother tongue (or English) in the title, they will not even think of viewing a video. A half-Croatian title scare away most potential viewers.
Yes, you are right. Thanks.
I have one more question.
I made new version of video about parallel lines, with better quality.
Here I used your music again. It was too short, so I made two copies. However, the pause between these two musics doesn’t sound good (to me), so I cut the end of the first copy and the beginning of the second copy, and tried to connect it more likeable.
Is it allowed?
Here is the link http://youtu.be/emnMKiKnSKw
and connection is around 2:10 minutes.
Do you allow it?
sure, that’s fine. I only put some restrictions on altering the music because some people were doing drastic things like doubling the tempo.
You need to be a part of a contest for one of the most useful blogs on the internet.
I’m going to recommend this web site!
Hi Lonzijun !
Loved your music. And used it for my self-funded short film teaser.
