Adding music to videos can drastically improve the video quality, but it can be risky if done incorrectly. Using “free no copyright” music from YouTube or SoundCloud can be dangerous. In this video, I talk about three ways to get music with no risk of copyright strikes, demonetization, or blackout zones.
Epidemic Sound: http://www.epidemicsound.com
YT Audio Library: http://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/music
YT Audio Lib. SFX: http://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/soundeffects
Additional notes:
Free, no-copyright music on http://youtube.com/audiolibrary/music
Also has lots of free sound effects (again, some of these suck but others are decent)
Epidemic Sound (based on the size of your channel)
Artlist.io
Musicbed.com
Make your own
Audiojungle.net
If you use a song with copyrights, you could lose monetization on that video, have it not shown in other countries, you could get a copyright strike with YT (DO NOT GET STRIKES!)
You want “Royalty Free” or “No Copyright”
I recommend avoiding the “no copyright” YouTube channels. Even though they might be free now, if the artist ever decides that they want to get a copyright for that song, they can make you take your videos down or otherwise pay them – not a good situation
You could also get permission from the artists – again, watch out for sound scan
