Royalty-Free Ambient Music

Looking for royalty-free (dark, somber) ambient music to use in a short film I plan on sending out to festivals and showing at science conferences. I really doubt I'll end up selling the short film or making any money off of it but I want to play it safe.

I know of the Free Sound Project (freesound.org) but that's about it. Anyone know of a good source(s) that's free?

Thanks! :)

http://dig.ccmixter.org/free_music is one I have used.
 
There's a difference between "free" and royalty-free. There are a quite a few royalty-free tracks on the http://rocksuresoundz.com website that you could call "sombre"...but that's a pretty broad description, and it could mean a lot of different possible styles of music. Here I have included a small number of tracks of mine that could be described as sombre...but they are all in different genres and styles. There are plenty of other ones on the site too.

Anyway, here's just a few possibilities:
