Hey, what about premium beats?
Bro, the "Find Similar" is my GoTo button too!!! I broke out laughing when you said it because I said the exact same thing a second before you did… HAHAHA!!! That was awesome! 😂
Great information 🖤
Absolutely love this video, thank you for taking the time to research this for us. Just purchased Badass FX4 also, Can't wait to merge great music with Badass FX. Thank you again Arthur 🏆
I used your link for epidemic music, looking forward for much higher quality creation
Great video. I use Musicbed and joined Artlist only recently. I agree completely with everything you said for both. Musicbed used to be much easier but they changed their process recently to the more complicated one they have now which has mores steps every time you want to download. I have written to Musicbed to express my frustration with the new process. Not sure whether it is a deal breaker yet. WIll see how irritating it becomes going forward.
Who else thought it was the actual ad for artlist
I was going to go straight for epidemicsound as user experience is a biggie for me, I mean giving users the ability to also separate instruments!! That's a winner! But what a flawed business model to restrict use only to period of subscription 🙁
Hey, and Soundly? Of course you couldn't mention all services, just saying 🙂 Great video, thanks for the effort! And, and, and, I'm looking forward to the BadAss Eff. 4!!
I have found epidemicsound to be great for my needs.
Loving the channel! 🙌🏾 I reckon you’ll like my friends channel also. She’s a filmmaker, vlogger and very creative person. Show her some love! ——> #AtiaCamzYT 📹
Hi Arthur, i'm happy user of previous badass effects pack and I have one request, for special offer for old buddy customers. Let's spread happiness around the net. How this sound for you? Kind regards 😀
Great comparison.
Epidemicsound caught my eye.
Thanks for the recommendation
Subscribed to Epidemic Sound right away after seeing your video.
Arthur, you have inspired me to actually start my own YouTube channel. Thank you
Great video as always! Thanks!
100% AGREED! I’ve been with Epidemic Sound for 2 years and very happy BUT you can only use their music while you have a subscription (fair enough) and second I did have a subscription with Artlist for 1 year and even though I no longer have a current subscription I am still allowed to use the music I downloaded from their site during my subscription. (WOW, the YouTube algorithm is going to have a fun time with the amount of times I use the word subscription in this comment LOL 😂) I have all of your BADASS 1, 2 & 3 packs and very much looking forward to number 4. Please email me first and I would love to be among the first to buy it. I’ve been focusing on my live streaming for this past year and wanting to get back into producing videos again I love your style Arthur. Cheers from iSpike Western Australia ✌🏻
Hi from Brazil Arthur.
yes man! epidemic is the best. the stems feature is without a doubt unbelievable. so many times I reconstruct the sounds as I like.
Hi Arthur, thanks for this review.
I think it would have been more correct to state that the links of the sites in the description are also affiliate links.
Thanks!
for me artlist is no.1 because they dont restrict platforms(i can use their song in a youtube video and a real movie, love that) for more music subscription sites check out this site https://contentcreationtools.com/
Happy New Year Thx!
👍👍👍👍
Arthur, to be very honest you make amazing videos. and you should be making more videos. I would like to see your content probably every week. Also, consider making an video editing course on skillshare. I am learning the video editing and I want to learn all the effects and transitions that you do. Please consider this.
Thank you. You confirmed my choice . Happy new year. Use your BA effects and transitions all the time!
Great fuckin video, my man!
cheers for this, very informative (as always)!
What about the legal side of the websites? I remeber comparing artlist.io and epidemic before, and the legal side wasn't good for epidemic.
Thanks a mill ARTHUR. great episode. I love epidemic sound also. I use it for all my vlogs.
I like Artlist, i do not like epidemic sounds at all.
Amen! Thanks Arthur for doing this review. With all the music licensing services popping it up these days it's really hard to know which ones have the highest quality tracks with the best music artists. I am at least grateful for subscription services compared to licensing single tracks a la carte like in the past. I have been using musicbed but you've made a strong argument for artlist.io and my mind was totally blown 🤯with the 'find similar' feature of Epidemic sound 🤔
There is a new one called lickd. Which lets you use commercial music. They are getting better every month. They are new but I think they will be great soon. Moby is on it which is my favourite. Unfortunately I couldn't use it in Australia. I hope they change that soon.
I like Artlist, they gives lifetime license for music.
Any thoughts on SmartSound (SonicFire Pro) or Filmstro Pro? Both are geared towards altering the length, structure, instrument mix of each piece?
Epidemic is Epic. It's easy to go down the epidemic rabbit hole and spend hours on the site.
Thanks a lot for that great overview. That gives answers to one of the most popular questions regarding filmmaking! There is only one questionmark regarding epidemic sound. I had problems with a few subscription points: subscription seems to be only legalized on one channel. if my movies will be shown on other channels (f.e. festival websides) it causes reclamations. If I am going to end subscription, all movies including epidemic sound files will be added with their advertising. Therefore I cancelled this subscription. Maybe that has changed meanwhile or I misunstood someting.
I have Musicbed and epidemic and they are both £9.99 a month – £120 a year each. I agree Epidemic is the better. Also Musicbed tracks are just a 1 click download same as epidemic. Maybe they have different platforms and prices for different countries
Hi Arthur, thx for the advice. Do you want to share how you actually search and find good music? Can you take me in your thought process of the search. I think that will be an authentic video, because many videos are about the websites. Have a great night and thanks for your help!
Where do you live right now
thanks Arthur. A very useful video.
