General
I need some free cliche old timey black-n-white cartoon music, something youtube won't flag, any suggestions? that classic staticy piano "dadadadada da da da, dun, da, dadadadadada da da da dun dun, dun dun" modern toons use when referencing black-n-white classic tunes would be perfect.

That's from Kevin Macleod, he does most of that royalty free music you hear in most Youtube videos! :D
There's another that's a little more upbeat

But if you want instrumental music:
Django Reinhardt is the MAN ("Sweet Georgia Brown", "Honeysuckle Rose").

Jelly Roll Morton ("Sidewalk Blues", "The Finger Breaker") does a lot of swing music and stomps/ragtime.

Then if you want a simple standard there is Scott Joplin's "The Entertainer", always a classic. Also "Maple Leaf Rag".

When you think of an inkblot cartoon, most likely you are thinking of a ragtime song, so if none of these appeal to you, just look up "ragtime" and scroll around til you find something that fits the pace. I hope that helps :3
It's by eddie morton :D
Carl Stalling orchestrated whatever he could find that fit the mood and let Warner Bros lawyers worry about copyright, (naughty fellow.) One of his favourites was "Powerhouse" by Raymond Scott. (But Warner Bros haven't been able to use it since Disney used it in "Honey I Shrunk The Kids.") The tune on every booby-trapped Warner piano is "Believe Me if All Those Endearing Young Charms," (or part thereof.)
