Creator workflow:Previewing music against your own footage before you buy

The only real test for music is your footage. Every track in our library has a preview you can play right on the page, with no account needed, so you can audition before you decide.

The quick way

Open your video in one window and the library in another. Start your video muted, then press play on a preview. It is rough, but within a few seconds you will know if the mood is right.

The better way

• Export a short, representative section of your edit, thirty seconds to a minute.
• Play it on loop while you try previews.
• Watch for moments where the music and the picture seem to agree: a cut landing on a beat, a lift arriving with a big shot.

What previews are for

Previews are short, lower-quality excerpts with an audible watermark. They are meant for auditioning, not for publishing. The full-quality files arrive after you buy.

• Wanderlust Whistle on the Travel & Vlog shelf
• Morning in the Kitchen on the Kitchen & Lifestyle shelf
• Pixel Dash on the Gaming & Chiptune shelf

Try these three against the same clip. You will hear how differently they frame the same footage.

Shortlist, then decide

Pick three candidates and try each against two or three different sections of your video. The one that works across all of them is usually the right choice.

Browse by niche and mood

The library lets you filter by niche and search by mood, and the player moves through the visible tracks in order. Searching music by mood explains how the mood words work.
