Where do you get your copyright-free music?

[GoBeansTV]

I tried Evoke and Purple Planet but I still get flagged from time to time. Any other sources?

Moved to the recording / editing / production / software / hardware forum.

When you come into this forum (recording/editing/production/software/hardware) you should see "sticky threads" there's a thread there with so many useful websites

I gave up on the free sites. Too many kept getting hits. Most would clear if I appealed them, but too much work, and too much risk. I now just use YouTube music. They have a pretty good search feature, and I just download the ones I want.

yes sir, I been doing this the whole time, actually using no attribution required tracks, easiest ever & don't even need to put song name in description, also use it for work projects

Q re the YT music library.
How does that work - does it have to be applied once uploaded or do you download the clips and cut thme in while video editing (as you normally would do with music tracks) ?

You can use non-copyright-free music as long as you edit it in some way. I usually add some echo, lower the pitch slightly, make the music sound like it's playing from a longer distance or from an old radio, I add little bit of wah or distortion, compress the sound a bit, boost some frequencies and there you go. I never got a copyright claim on my videos when applying those methods while the music still sounds good.

Be careful. That may fool the detection algorithm but that doesn't necessarily mean it's legal.
