Background music supports content without pulling attention away from it. It sits under voiceovers in tutorials, behind presentations and webinars, beneath podcast segments, in livestreams and in apps and games. The goal is steady mood and energy rather than a memorable hook.
Typical styles are soft piano, lo-fi beats, ambient pads, light acoustic guitar, gentle electronic and understated corporate tracks. Good background tracks avoid sudden dynamics and busy melodies in the vocal frequency range, so speech stays clear.
Playing music in a shop, restaurant, gym or other public space is a different use from putting it in a video, and may involve separate public performance rules depending on where you are. Check the license and local rules, and ask the seller if your use isn't clearly covered.
Choosing background music
- Pick tracks with steady energy and no sudden drops or crescendos if they'll run under speech.
- Look for loopable versions or long-form edits for streams, apps and presentations.
- Choose music without vocals when there's a voiceover or narration.
- Check whether the license covers public spaces, livestreams or only recorded videos.
- Look for versions with reduced melody or drums so the music sits further back in the mix.
Questions about background music
Can I play background music in my store or cafe?
That's public performance, which can follow different rules from video use depending on your country. Check the license and local rules, and ask the seller.
Can I use background music on a livestream?
If the license covers streaming, yes. Look for loopable or long tracks so the music doesn't repeat abruptly.
Which format should I use for presentations?
MP3 is fine for most presentation and streaming software. Use WAV for video editing where quality matters.
