This must have been asked before though I couldn't find any related question titles via search.
I'm looking for recommendation for a resource (library / website) where I could find composed music to be used as a background track within a corporate/advertisement video. I'm designing the sound effects and don't have enough time and budget to also compose a background track from scratch... therefore am looking for a way to pull it off as fast as I can.
Please advise!
Music stocks, i guess. Audiojungle.com, Productiontrax.com etc.
Try this site http://rocksuresoundz.com
I am one of the main contributors to music on the site. It's not as large as some of the other libraries out there, but there still plenty of different styles and songs available.
you can check my older tunes, if something fits your video, hit me up on soundcloud or here, will give it away for free ;)

I am going to recommend audioblocks.
Audioblocks is a subscription based site, with some impressive benefits
Audioblocks also has a very powerful search, where you can search by Moods, Genres, Instruments, Tempo, Duration, etc. This will help you find what you are looking for a lot faster than scrolling through several free music sites.
Consider using my referral link to get a discount on the membership.
P.S. I am NOT in any way affiliated with audioblocks.
The original question was from many years ago and was seeking "to pull it off as fast as I can". So we are no longer responding to the original question at this late date.
In addition to the suggestions already posted, here is another list of low-cost or free music sources. Note that any and all such lists will go out of date sooner or later as sources disappear and others appear.
A good source I have been looking at recently is https://incompetech.com/music/
