Prompts you can use right now
Light, upbeat instrumental for a day-in-my-life vlog: coffee, bike ride to work, farmers market. Acoustic guitar, soft claps, steady medium tempo, no vocals.
Bright indie pop instrumental for a travel vlog montage of a train ride through mountain towns, quick cuts every couple of seconds. Driving drums, jangly guitar, no vocals.
Warm jazzy lo-fi instrumental for a cooking vlog: chopping, sizzling pans, a relaxed kitchen. Upright bass, brushed drums, soft Rhodes, no vocals, easy to talk over.
Catchy, upbeat pop song for the opening montage of a weekly van-life vlog, a short sung hook about hitting the road, handclaps and whistling.
How to get background music that fits your video
- →If you talk over the footage, ask for an instrumental with a steady, uncluttered beat. Busy melodies fight your voice, even with the music turned down.
- →Match the tempo to your cutting speed: quick montages want a driving beat; sit-down talking segments want something sparse.
- →Describe the place and the activity. "Kitchen, Sunday morning" and "night market after dark" lead to different arrangements even at the same mood.
- →Build a small set for one channel — an intro, a bed for talking segments, a montage track — using the same instruments, so your videos sound like they belong together.
How it works
- 1
Describe the footage
What's on screen, how fast it's cut, and whether you'll be talking over it.
- 2
Keep it instrumental
Leave vocals off for background; turn them on only for an intro or a montage with no voiceover.
- 3
Test both takes against the edit
Try each version under your timeline and keep the one that fits the cuts.
Frequently asked questions
Can I use the background music in YouTube videos and vlogs?
Songs made on the free plan are fine for personal videos. For monetized or sponsored videos, make them on a paid plan — commercial use is included there. The pricing page and our terms have the details.
Should vlog music have vocals?
Usually not under talking — lyrics compete with your voice. Vocals work for intros, outros and montages with no voiceover.
Can I keep the same sound across all my vlogs?
Reuse the same style words every time — for example "acoustic guitar, soft claps, medium tempo, instrumental" — and change only the scene. Each generation is different, but the sound tends to stay close.
The music is too busy under my voice. What should I change?
Ask for fewer instruments, such as "just guitar and light percussion, sparse, no vocals", and generate again. Lowering the music in your editor helps too.
Will my background music be public?
Songs made on the free plan are published publicly on the Explore page. Paid plans keep songs private.
