Better than stock music

Stock music or royalty-free music refers to pre-existing music tracks that are licensed for use in various media productions, such as films, television shows, commercials, video games, and online videos. Stock music is often used by media producers who need affordable, high-quality music for their projects but do not have the budget to commission original music or the time to create it themselves. Epidemic Sound offers a wide variety of music themes, genres, and moods, making it easy for you to find the right music to fit your project.

Stock music is also commonly used by content creators on platforms like YouTube and social media, who need to license music that is cleared for use without fear of copyright infringement.

You can use stock music as background music for videos on platforms like YouTube, Vimeo, Instagram, TikTok, and more. Other common media projects where you can use our royalty-free stock music are on websites in various projects, as background music in all sorts of games, mobile apps, presentations, and more.

Not all stock music is copyright-free. Stock music may be subject to copyright protection, which means that the composer or owner of the music has exclusive rights to use, reproduce, and distribute it. However, some stock music is available under royalty-free licenses, which allow users to pay a one-time fee for the right to use the music in their projects without additional fees or restrictions. It is important to carefully review the licensing terms and conditions before using any stock music to ensure that you have the necessary permissions to do so. When buying a subscription from Epidemic Sound you have the complete right to use the music as you wish on any platform.

If using another royalty-free music provider make sure to read the licensing agreement carefully before using the music for any projects. This agreement will specify the terms and conditions under which the music can be used.

Our music is forbidden to be used with explicit or illegal content. Other than that our music has no limitations as long as you have a valid subscription.

It depends on the terms and conditions specified by the license provider. Some royalty-free stock music providers may require you to give credit to the artist, while others may not. Epidemic Sound does not require subscribers to give credit to any artists, although it’s highly appreciated.
