Potential Soundtrack?

UPDATE: It has been brought to my attention that I may not be able to use these songs due to the fact that they are copyrighted. I will have to look more into it, but I really hope I can...

I spent quite some time looking through music that I thought would be good to go with my documentary. I'm looking for a sort of indie-alternative/upbeat/inspiring/folk/contemporary mixture. I know it's a little early to start doing this, but I got excited when I found Our Song by Dynamic Inkline, which captures a lot of the essence of Ithaca, NY. There is a video with an interview with Ithaca Mayor Svante Myric and scenes all around Ithaca. It's inspiring because it's pretty similar to my vision of the lens I want to view Ithaca through.

I put my working soundtrack into a playlist online and it's about an hour and 15 minutes long in total. This is about what I want, because the music will fade in and out with dialogue, but will be present or most of the film. I may choose not to include some or add some later. Like I said, I know it's a bit out of order to look through music to early, but I was inspired to just sit down for a few hours, to go through music, and to find some interesting things that I hope should work. I want my own taste to be a part of the soundtrack but not to overwhelm it, because I'm aware that I also have a theme and an audience to work with.
