When considering music for your podcast, we recommend thinking about tracks for three distinct sections:
- Intro music – you’ll want to find a piece of music immediately identifiable, captivating and relevant to your podcast topics.
- Segment change music is music that leads into or out of an ad break. It cues the listener that there’s about to be a shift in the storytelling timeline.
- Outro music – this piece should gel with your intro music and feel like a natural exit ramp to your podcast content.
Our library of production music includes a vast selection of podcast music. Most importantly, stems are available for most of our music. Stems allow you to edit tracks to mute certain elements and create similar yet distinct and separate music. You may license a track for your intro and then use the stems to create a separate track that subtracts specific instruments, vocals, or tones to create an outro reminiscent of the intro but its unique track.
