Locate additional music files that can be used with tuxmath or tuxtype

TuxMath and TuxType could benefit from additional background music.  This task is to locate freely available music (with suitable licensing) on the Internet.  Original music would also be welcome.

The files must be available under a license compatible with the Debian Free Software Guidelines (http://www.debian.org/social_contract.html#guidelines).  This primarily means that the content is freely modifiable and redistributable, whether for commercial or non-commercial use.

It is strongly preferred that music files be in the Ogg Vorbis format, so that they can be played by software with less potential encumbrance by patents.  If needed, mp3 files can be transcoded into the ogg vorbis format.

 

The music itself should be fun and suitable for elementary-school aged children.  It is realized that this last criterion is highly subjective.
