Questions

What is a relax song?

Are these songs free?

Yes. Stream them here or download them as MP3, free. They are licensed CC BY 4.0, so you can use them in videos and streams with credit too.

Can I use a relax song in my YouTube video or stream?

Yes, with credit, on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitch, Facebook, X and other social media, livestreams included.

Do the songs have lyrics?

No. Everything here is instrumental, so nothing pulls your attention towards words.

Is this music made with AI?

No.
