Why use a music provider?

The answer is simple, music has the power to elevate the quality and the engagement of your videos and give you all the creative freedom.

There have been many discussions about the best royalty free music

In order to make the most of music in your videos, you should find a partner that can provide you with a wide variety of music, have consistently high production quality and, maybe most importantly, provide tools that make it easy to work with.

Remember that, on Youtube, three strikes in the same 90 day period will result in your channel being permanently removed.

MUSIC SEARCH FEATURES
Their search system is just plain amazing, very easy to use. They’ve classified their songs on Genres, Moods, Movement, and Places, as you can see here:

Each Genre is further divided into Sub-genres.

In terms of discovering new music and the search tools that they have, there are few companies that are that strong. Once I understood Epidemic Sound player, they had two features that really set them apart:

Their ‘find similar’ function makes discovery really easy once you have narrowed down what you are looking for.
The ability to download the tracks in STEMS, that basically allows you to be more creative with the sound design, by removing vocals, bass or other instruments, you can tailor the music in your needs. It is by far one of the best tools I’ve seen to find the right song, since you can now take only the elements you like.
Finally, when it comes to music licensing, it’s always important to find a company that produces in close cooperation with the musicians. When buying finished tracks, there is always a chance that someone that has been involved in the production is part of a P.R.O (collecting societies of royalties).

As far as I know, Epidemic has a dedicated producer with every musician that helps them through the production process, so they have the best rights coverage of all providers out there.

Also, you will not receive copyright strikes from YouTube if you use Epidemic Sound for a while and then decide to discontinue the service. As long as you’re a monthly subscriber when you upload your video, you’ll have the rights to be using that music forever – even if you’re not subscribed anymore, later on.
