Hey everyone, any recommendations for ways to get music for your game? I would prefer not to use AI. I want to either pay a musician or get free music made by a real person. I tried making my own music for a bit and I felt totally out of my depth.

Open Game Art has a music category

ThoughtPunks (open TTRPG group) list a handful of places for creative commons music.

If you're making a game for sale, I highly recommend you find an artist you like (possibly through Creative Commons contributions) and reach out to that specific artist you make something meaningful for your game
