top five royalty free music sites that you can use in your YouTube videos
whether you're a filmmaker or an advertiser you need music for your
videos and I'm gonna go over the top 5 best royalty-free sites that you can get
music for your videos keep in mind this video is about paid music sites if
you're interested in totally free sites to get music for YouTube videos you can
check out this link here and there are some disadvantages of going with that
which I'll get into it a little bit let's get into this video though which
are paid subscription sites the top 5 royalty-free music for your videos
consider punching the subscribe button I do weekly videos and I do have some
music of my own. I am a singer-songwriter myself I can leave a couple links in the
description. Ok let's jump into number 1 which would be epidemic sound and
epidemic is a light mode design UX a feature I really like when it comes to
epidemics sound is this fine similar button they have on search where if you
do like a song but it just doesn't fit although the right things for you you
can just press this find similar button and it will locate a bunch of other
songs that likely sound the same to that song you're interested in and I'd use
this a lot when I used epidemics sound epidemic is a platform that does have
stems where you can get the bass vocals percussion and guitar stems for each
track and then you have the freedom to just use the stems take stems in and out
as you please so that's a really cool feature that epidemic does sound does
have you do have a free trial they have the 13 euro a month plan or or built on
an annual basis which is about a hundred twenty year for your personal account
and they always have commercial plans and custom plans if you're maybe an
advertiser and you have quite a big budget and with these types of personal
packages you get unlimited downloads you're also definitely cleared when it
comes to the copyright for YouTube Facebook Instagram Twitter twitch and
podcasts and then you can have unlimited views and followers monetize for YouTube
the only downside after 50 60 videos it became stale and I had to use some of
the same songs and split stems a little bit to make them distinct number two
would be sound stripe I found sound strip to be good
not great you can see here that they've been used by Amazon Microsoft Tesla
Whole Foods I never really know in what actually capacity those companies did
use the music one thing I really liked was you can search by key and this is a
distinct feature which I didn't notice in any of the other sites as a musician
I like that feature because depending on the mood of my video I can search for a
minor key a major key it's probably better for musicians especially I mean
maybe you just want also a backing track for musicians it comes to pricing sound
striped likes to put their pricing based on the yearly allowance and not
bimonthly so here we have $99 which is your standard package yearly and then
you can premium package going up to $135 similar standard features that you get
along with your basic package and that is about on average what the other
platforms are offering as well in a third paid site for royalty-free music
would be audio blocks a little bit more tailored to business to business and set
of business to consumer you can kind of get that from the vibe here it's just a
little bit corporate and you can notice here from the top here we have business
solutions so they are tailored a little bit more b2b than they are b2c if you
need to talk video footage or music into your product you can hook into the audio
box API and use that as a service which is great and something that none of the
other platforms offer right now so definitely a distinct feature for audio
blocks and great if you are a corporate company the fourth royalty free music
site that I would recommend is film stro and I want to put films draw on the list
first Tuesday distinct reasons not only is it the cheapest coming in at 8:33 a
month but it is actually I think probably the best if you are a editor is
it has plug-ins for your editors like Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere Pro so
if you're editing videos and you want a music plugging directly inside those
apps well film stro will directly plug into
those applications as none of the other sites I mentioned do that so a really
cool distinct feature v royalty-free music
site that I would recommend art list alright list makes it quite simple when
it comes to pricing there's only one price one price unlimited opportunities
is what they say you can get unlimited downloads unlimited license including
commercial use lifetime use for the song you download and pre check for YouTube
monetization their blog has great resources especially if you're a creator
or looking for tips and resources of how to make videos what music you should use
in your videos and they also get professional videographers in to give
you tips on how to shoot footage so it's great if you're a creator a distinct
feature on art list that I really like is their theme search so in that catalog
of music you can typically search for a jean or and that type of thing but also
with art list you have theme search so let's say you're doing a wedding video
let's say you're doing a music video documentary and education video that
based on the theme of your video they will recommend songs that are great for
those types of videos one thing that I did wish artless had would be the stems
of the songs most other platforms do have this feature where you can just
take the stems of a song other than the whole actual mix of a song if you're a
videographer or a musician or something you'll likely want the stems sometimes
so you can be creative with the track and perhaps only use the drums at a
certain part of the song or the guitars it's nice to have the option to just get
the stems those are the top 5 royalty free music
sites that a paid subscription with great music catalogs let me know what
you think in a comment if you're using one of these site and let's debate about
which one is the best please punch the subscribe button if you're new here and
I hope to see you in the next video
