Where to start

Frequently asked questions

Is this music free for commercial use?

Yes. Tracks are free to download and can be used in commercial projects under the site license. Do not redistribute the files as a music library.

Do I need to sign up or give credit?

No sign-up is required and credit is optional.

Can I play these in a shop or cafe?

The site license covers commercial use of the tracks. Check whether your country requires a separate public-performance license for playing music in a venue, because that is outside the site's terms.

Can Content ID ever flag my video?

An automated claim is possible on any platform, and no claim-free result is guaranteed. The tracks are AI-generated. If a platform flags an upload, follow its review or dispute process.

Before you publish: every track here is AI-generated and free to download without signing up. Read the plain-English license summary for what you can and cannot do, and preview the music in your real edit or mix first.
