Referencing Music in Your YouTube Description

When you click on the tune, it will show you exactly what you need to copy and paste into the video description:
Free, Royalty-Free Music from Other Sources
Now, of course there are hundreds of services, both paid and free, off the YouTube platform that provide royalty free music. Although you're never 100 percent sure of where that music's coming from.
If you downloaded it from another YouTube video or a random website then it might not be royalty free and you could find yourself in very hot water later down the line. So, we always recommend getting your free music from the audio library on YouTube because you are guaranteed to be able to use it on the platform without any issues and be able to monetize your content. Oh and now would also seem like the perfect opportunity to let you know that you can also download loads of sound effects for free which you can filter by category and sound too!
