AI Music for YouTube and TikTok Videos: Length, Loops and Claims

Music for video has different rules than music for listening: it supports the picture and often sits under a voice.

Background music under voiceover

• Use instrumental mode.
• Describe it as background: minimal, steady, no lead melody, soft. Busy melodies fight the voice.
• In the mix, lower the "other" and "piano" stems if they compete with speech frequencies.

Short hooks for TikTok and Reels

Short-form video rewards a recognizable 10–20 second moment. Generate a short song with a strong chorus, then cut the chorus as your clip.

Cutting to length

Generate at 1:00 or more and edit in the studio. Cut at the start of a bar and add a short fade to avoid clicks.

Claims and terms

Content identification systems on video platforms can sometimes flag music, including AI-generated tracks. Keep your project files and check the terms of the services you used before monetizing. Never upload someone else's song as a reference.

Loudness for video

Video platforms normalize audio too. Master the music a bit lower than a release if it will sit under voiceover, so the voice stays clear.
