Epidemic Sound gives agencies faster soundtracking and greater creative control

"Based in Stockholm, Sweden, the music-technology company Epidemic Sound is used the world over, with its catalogue being listened to over three billion times a day (yes, billion with a b). Its royalty-free roster is built for both discovery and deployment, helping teams move from idea to final output quickly and well. After all, for agencies balancing tight timelines, multiple projects and ever-expanding deliverables, endlessly searching for good soundtracks can quickly become quite a hindrance."

"Epidemic Sound also owns all the rights to its music, making licensing incredibly straightforward - a factor that's key to its ethos. The company prioritises ease, accessibility and quality, seen in the high standards of its inventory, its straightforward and fair artists compensation, and the super smooth experience of putting motion to music. While the company is proud to offer total music licensing safety and peace of mind, as well as top-quality music and sound from some of the world's leading artists, one of its most popular features is "game-changing, AI-powered soundtracking speed and creative control"."

"Studio and Assistant - AI-assisted features on the platform - were introduced in 2025 and updated in 2026, and across both features, studios and agencies are able to move faster while retaining full creative oversight, making the entire end-to-end soundtracking workflow more efficient. "It's key to understand there's no one-size-fits-all approach to soundtracking," Matt says, explaining how Epidemic Sound looks to make the music search more intuitive."

"Under the pressure of tight deadlines and last-minute changes, finding the right soundtrack can be incredibly tricky and time-consuming - as well as differing hugely from project to project and between individual creatives. "It's one of the reasons we're so excited about the Epidemic Sound Studio," he says. "It levels up the soundtracking process for all"
