Frequently asked
- Is Melodly really free?
- Yes. Every track is free to download and free to use, including in projects you make money from. There is no paid tier and no account required.
- Do I have to credit Millennials Melody?
- Yes — credit is required whenever you use a track. Please use: "Music by Millennials Melody — melodly.com".
- Can I monetize a YouTube video that uses your music?
- Yes. The catalogue is not registered with Content ID and is not managed by any collection society, so monetized uploads are fine.
- What if I get a copyright claim anyway?
- It should not happen, but if a third party falsely claims a Melodly track, get in touch with the track URL and we will send written confirmation of your right to use it so you can dispute the claim.
- Can I edit, loop or remix the tracks?
- Yes. Cut them, loop them, layer them, pitch them. Just do not release the modified audio as a stock-music product.
- Which formats do I get?
- A 320kbps MP3 from every track page. WAV masters are available on request for broadcast and film work.
- How often do new tracks land?
- Several every week. Relaxing Piano and Lo-Fi are the current genres; ambient and acoustic guitar collections are in production.
