Adding Background Music to your Website
Many of our customers come to our site looking for background music for their website - be it corporate or personal website. There are 2 ways you may want to implement this:
1) Music played automatically upon page loading
2) Music played when button is click on
You want your background music to load fast. Some think that Midi files are the best way to go due to size. Honestly I think it would be best to leave out having music altogether if you go with Midi. It not only dates your site back to the '90s but also sounds awfully mechanical.
The way to go is with music loops. Loops are use for the purpose of smooth, continuous playback or "looping". They ensure that your website has continuous play even if your visitors stops a your page for a longer period of time then the length of your music track. Music loops are great for websites as they small in size (not as small as Midi) but with many users on broadband, it is bearable. Our suggestion is to give your users the option if they want music on or want it turn off. You can also code your site to have music load up last so that your visitors see your content first.
Opuzz music loops available in both MP3 and WAV are meticulously edited and tested to ensure they loop seamlessly. Each music loop track is between 8 to 20+ seconds long, depending on the musical context. You have the option to purchase music loops individually, in song sets or as bundles with special discount. For more details, see Opuzz music loops.
