Hello,

I wanted to create a YouTube channel featuring angelic-style music for meditation. Besides honing my video effects skills, I aim to create soothing music that people can use for work, relaxation, and concentration. However, I'm unsure how to find this kind of music without running into copyright issues. Does anyone know where I can find such music to ensure I don't jeopardize my channel in the future? It can be either paid or free.

Thank you.

I tried using some songs with the CCO license, but I wasn't successful. In fact, some of them were even blocked by YouTube's platform. As far as I understood, the CCO license should have been ideal for what I needed, but I still couldn't use them.

I tested this new tool, but I believe that since it's in the early stages, it still produces a sound with a lot of noise and low quality. I'm not sure if I didn't use the correct command prompt

The Pixaby website has a great range or royalty free downloadable music. You don't have to, but it's always nice to give credit if you create anything of quality.

You can always check out my music, maybe it's usefull. Most of it is licensed under creative commons attribution so only a link to it in the description of your video is needed to use it.

I made a tune and I sent you a link. It should be perfect for mediation as its slow. Its got Gregorian chant style vocals and a nice slow hip hop style beat.
If you like it then use it my friend.
If anyone else wants to use the tune to add to a collection of tunes for streaming or just personal use here is the link.

Master-Virus I would love to use your tune...check ur DM's if still around

Download a free copy of VCV Rack, for Mac, Windows, or Linux. It's a modular synthesis app to emulate Eurorack hardware. See https://vcvrack.com
With that you can create your own patches for generative ambient tracks, so no copyright issues to worry about, and they can be as long as you want until you run out of drive storage space.
Omri Cohen has a lot of tutorials for it on youtube, to give you some ideas of what's possible.

This was one of my early efforts: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J55hx23vKkY It was more about generating the random melody than the instrument sound.

Note (if you have macOS): with Rack, you can set up your sequencers and then send midi data to GarageBand, which has a fair number of nice-sounding instruments and pads. Then use Blackhole to send the GarageBand audio back to Rack to further manipulate the sound, and record it.
