PremiumBeat - Flexible, Unlimited Music For Creators

Back in November of 2024, PremiumBeat made a bold move that was hailed as their best offer to date; subscription plans went from a limited set of 5 tracks per month to unlimited royalty free downloads from the music library. PremiumBeat called this all you can eat music, and editors everywhere were thrilled. One of the biggest web music libraries, boasting a curated catalog of 42,527 studio-quality tracks, is now more accessible than ever.

Standing Out Among Stock Music Providers In addition to PremiumBeat's unlimited music, the site's structure will also help you save time in several ways.

PremiumBeat's search function, for example, is a preferred filtering system for video editors, with 5 different ways to cross-section the library of assets: genre, mood, instrument, BPM duration, or keyword.

To begin, the easiest search method is to choose either a Genre or Mood , then press the Show Filters button on the top left to get a fly-out panel that will narrow your results further.

If you're in Moods, for example, you can click a sub-genre or two within that category. You can even cross categories to choose a specific genre within that mood for more determined results.

For our project, we looked within Mood for Underscores that would make good background music for our video, but only wanted the New Age genre of Underscores, and more specifically the Ambient sub-genre. We clicked, and the page instantly loaded with pertinent results.

Next, we typed cheerful into the keyword search bar at the top of the screen, adding this dimension to our search parameters of Underscores and New Age: Ambient , all of which get listed at the top of the screen so you don't get lost. The site is very responsive, and we were instantly presented with distinct results, having narrowed 42,000 possibilities down to just two.

The ability to download a preview track from PremiumBeat is another site perk that makes the process of selecting stock music very hassle free. Instead of finding out too late that your music piece isn't a good fit against your footage, users can get a preview track with an audio watermark to test against the footage ahead of time. Loops and Stems will not be available until after a purchase, however.

For creators looking for a stock music plan that will consistently yield good matches to their projects, PremiumBeat's library has a legendary reputation. The large, reputable collection contains some 297 genres, 28 moods, 211 curated playlists, 16,187 sound effects, plus endless keyword tagging to focus the search! There are sounds here for every project, and also some surprising tracks that can inspire creators in new directions.

With a big project on your hands and yet so many stock music possibilities at your disposal, you'll want a plan for quickly determining which track is right for your composition.

Getting Started The first thing that you need to do is to create a playlist or two into which you can direct prospective tracks as you come across them. Click on the profile symbol in the top right corner of the screen to get a menu, and select the box with a music note that says No Playlists Yet . If there is already a numbered amount of playlists in that box, of course, click it and add a new playlist for this project.

With a playlist created, it's time to browse for that perfect music clip. Navigate to either a genre or a mood on the top menu and employ your search skills to locate the best music for your project.

Most tracks on PremiumBeat are several minutes long, so if you only listen to 10 music pieces, half an hour can easily fly by. Depending on how much time you have on your hands to listen to music, you may need to skip around to different points in each track to just get a feel for it and move on if you determine the track is not for you.

So before you go much further, take note of the keyboard shortcuts that, as you browse, will help you quickly navigate through the tracks and direct potential music picks right into the playlist with fewer clicks and keystrokes.

Even if you narrow down your search results with the 5 different methods of search, you'll still have a long list of search results to go through. After selecting the first track, you can instantly skip to the next track on the page by simply pressing the down arrow button on your keyboard. Within any given track, you may want to skip past slow intros by jumping ahead 15 seconds at a time with the right arrow button (and backwards 15 seconds with the left arrow button). Pause and unpause with the spacebar.

If you are currently listening to a track that you'd like to put in your playlist, you only need to push the P button to pull up your playlists, then select the correct one to file your music into. Or, even faster, you can simply press the L button to add it to the latest playlist.

The option to add to a playlist is also available under the three-dot menu to the right hand side of every music track.

Once you think you have plenty of potential tracks in the list, navigate to that playlist to give everything one more listen, then select the winning track.

Now it's time to pay. You'll see that a single track can be quite pricey, $999 for a single Business Licensed track! This is where you will want to pick up a subscription instead so that you can save an incredible amount of money.

Understanding PremiumBeat's Subscription Plans

Perhaps you aren't sure if you will need more than a few music tracks right now, and you would like to simply pay one month at a time, until the need arises for a bigger plan. If you only pay month to month to begin, you can feel the site out and make a commitment later.
