When using background music with a Creative Commons license, make sure that you check the fine print \u2014 some composers include restrictions on commercial use or list specific ways in which they need to be credited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/freemusicarchive.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Free Music Archive<\/a> is a great tool for finding background music for video with a Creative Commons license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Pros:<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Cons:<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Newer tracks and diverse genres fall under Creative Commons licenses<\/td><td>Can come with usage restrictions<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Free to use<\/td><td>Finding the good stuff can require digging<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why royalty-free music is ideal for video creators&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A royalty-free music subscription is a third option for finding great background music for your online videos or social media reels. While <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/blog\/royalty-free-vs-non-copyrighted-music-heres-the-difference\/\">royalty-free tracks<\/a> aren\u2019t free, subscribing to a service like Artlist means you don\u2019t have to pay music licensing fees directly to the creator of the track that you\u2019re using as background music for video.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A subscription to a <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/royalty-free-music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">royalty-free music<\/a> service like Artlist is ideal for busy video creatives for a few reasons:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Simplifies the process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Eliminate the need to negotiate with individual composers, artists, or labels.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cost effective<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Pricing for royalty-free background music for video is included in your <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/blog\/artlist-pricing-and-plans-explained\/\">Artlist subscription<\/a>. No hidden fees or need to pay royalties to the composer down the line.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Built-in legal protections<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Downloading tracks and using them in your projects from Artlist\u2019s catalog of royalty-free music protects you legally. Having an active Artlist subscription will also prevent your YouTube videos and videos on other platforms from being flagged for <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/blog\/copyright-infringement\/\">copyright infringement<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choosing the right background music for your videos<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Background music should reinforce the message of your video and move the story forward. Here are some things to consider when picking video background music for your project.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Project\u2019s purpose and end goal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Establishing the purpose of your video, will help you decide exactly what should be used for background music. The music you choose should be the same as the emotional tone of your footage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Different instruments inspire different feelings, so keep this in mind too. <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/royalty-free-music\/song\/garden-of-eden\/64393\">Strings and keys<\/a> can evoke a dreamy vibe, while bass and percussion bring an energetic, inspirational momentum to the music. Ultimately, the purpose of your video project should match the mood of the background music.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Target audience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Your target audience will guide what tracks you use as video background music. An educational video for teaching kids would work well with something <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/collection\/fun\/11667\">playful and lighthearted.<\/a> If you\u2019re working on a short horror or sci-fi film, selecting a track that\u2019s a little <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/collection\/inspired-by-black-mirror\/115440\">dark and unsettling<\/a> might be the move.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pacing and tempo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Background music is a great tool for setting the pace of your video project. Fast-paced music works well with high-energy content, while gentler, <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/royalty-free-music\/categories\/acoustic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">acoustic music<\/a> is a better fit for videos with slower, cinematic editing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Musical genre<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like different instruments give rise to unique sets of emotions, the genre of music you choose for background music for video can have a big influence on the overall message. But there are no hard rules about the best type of music that should be used as background music for your videos.&nbsp; Specific styles and genres of music can work well with many different types of videos. <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/royalty-free-music\/categories\/ambient\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ambient music<\/a> can be a great choice for building tension and adding suspense, but the exact same genre can also be used to create a calming vibe. Artlist\u2019s curated playlists of royalty-free music allow video creators to experience the moods that each genre evokes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best types of background music for different video styles&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not sure where to start? Here are some examples from the Artlist catalog that would work well as background music options for different styles of videos.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Vlogs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Popular vloggers know that keeping engagement high is all about sharing authentic moments from their lives with their viewers. Background music on a vlog plays an important role in keeping the pacing interesting. The best background music for a vlog is really dependent on the vlogger\u2019s personality, but we recommend keeping it upbeat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brooklyn Dream<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBrooklyn Dream\u201d by <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/royalty-free-music\/artist\/ziso\/2451\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ZISO<\/a> combines a calming hip-hop beat with a dreamy vocal sample. We think it&#8217;s the perfect piece of background music for a vlog spotlighting the lifestyle of a creative living in an urban area.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n    <div class=\"playlist\"

brand<\/a> on any video content, your background music is going to play an important role in the story. The style of music that works best as background music for the video will largely depend on the brand\u2019s guidelines. Some brands will need to skew towards more corporate music, while brands with a younger audience might be more open towards playful, experimental music.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the client hasn\u2019t considered exactly what genre of music they want as background music, asking questions about the mood and message of the final video product can help you find something that\u2019s a good fit. Browse through Artlist\u2019s curated collections to get started in the search. The \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/collection\/songs-that-sell\/10823\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Songs that Sell<\/a>\u201d collection features royalty-free tracks that have already been used by major brands.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Duda<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This funky track from Ian Post has a slightly sexy vibe that combines <a href=\"https:\/\/artlist.io\/royalty-free-music\/categories\/jazz\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">jazz<\/a> and electronic to create a fresh sound. This could be great background music for a branded video for a brand that is willing to be a little provocative to get people talking. <a
