Find the perfect soundtrack with Epidemic Sound’s advanced search tools

Epidemic Sound’s player is packed with more than 50,000 premium tracks. Given that they’re recorded by our artists and available on our platform, we’ve categorized them into neat, easily searchable categories.

We’ve also created a whole host of smart search tools to help you find that GOATed track every time. Let’s go through them now.

1. Classic search

Our player’s trusty search bar is ready to hunt for track names, genres, moods, and more. Type in what you’re looking for and get inspired.

2. Filter by characteristics

Once you’ve clicked on something or searched, you can filter the results based on several criteria. They are:

• Moods
• Genres
• Duration
• Vocals
• Key 
• Instruments

3. Search by reference track

Have a song in mind for your project, and want to find more music with the same vibe? No problem. ​​Just type in any track or artist name, or paste a Spotify link into our player’s search bar.

4. Search by video

Filmed, edited, and reviewed your visual content, but no idea where to start musically? We’ve got you covered. Click “Search by video” to the right of our search bar, then upload your video project.

Pause at a frame that captures the vibe you’re after, then hit “Get recommendations.” You’ll see a bunch of tracks, which you can then browse or filter by specific characteristics.

5. Find similar sections

If you’re in love with a section of an Epidemic Sound track, you can search for more music just like it. Open up an individual track, then click the “Find similar” button below the waveform. 

You can then define the length and position of the snippet you want to explore. Shorten, extend, and drag the slider across the waveform to dive into similar-sounding tracks from our catalog — find your track, your way.

Once you’ve done that, you can tailor the music to your project: break it down with stems, create loops, and customize your soundtrack to complement any content.

And the best part? Our catalog is high-quality, affordable, and safe. An Epidemic Sound subscription goes beyond royalty-free music, removing the headache of licensing and freeing you up to do what you do best. 

You can enjoy the safety of our license hand-in-hand with our massive catalog, covering just about every genre you can think of.

It’s better than royalty-free. It’s worry-free. Get started with Epidemic Sound below.

Use ChatGPT to find music with Epidemic Sound

ChatGPT is the most popular AI search tool — it makes sense that people might search for music there. 

Here’s how to start a ChatGPT music search for Epidemic Sound:

1. Open ChatGPT. If you already have an account, feel free to log in — this isn’t necessary, though, as logged-out searches can be performed for free. A logged-in experience may provide deeper context based on your previous searches and ChatGPT music prompts.
2. Type your query, adjusting based on how broad you’re aiming. For example, “find heavy metal music with Epidemic Sound” could display our metal genre page, plus a series of subgenres. Once you’ve written your query, click the arrow to the right of the text field.
3. If you’re looking for something more specific, narrow down your search. In this case, you could try “find me industrial metal songs in Epidemic Sound.” The result should display individual tracks, paired with short descriptions and cover art.
4. Find the page that suits you, and click the corresponding link. Double-check that the link leads to Epidemic Sound, and you should be good to go.
5. If you can’t find the exact track with ChatGPT, try using our search tool we mentioned above. 

Use Google Gemini to find music with Epidemic Sound

While not as widespread as ChatGPT, Google Gemini has gained steam recently. In particular, businesses have integrated Gemini into their workflows, as it slots neatly into the existing Google Workspace. 

Here’s how to kick off a Google Gemini music search for Epidemic Sound:

1. Open Google Gemini. If you already have a Google account, log in. If you don’t, you’ll need to create one to use the tool.
2. Write your query. If you’re going for a broader question, type it straight into the text field. Think along the lines of “find me hyperpop songs with Epidemic Sound.” Once you’re happy with your query, click the arrow to the right-hand side.
3. If your search is more granular, use the “Deep Research” option below the text field. Once you search, Gemini will provide even more options, and ask to compile a report.
4. Find the page you want, and click through. Simple Gemini prompts might not link to individual tracks like ChatGPT, but they should list some tracks. If you see any playlist or genre links heading back to Epidemic Sound, go ahead and click them.
5. If you don’t find the perfect track with Google Gemini, try Epidemic Sound’s search tool.

Use Perplexity to find music with Epidemic Sound

Perplexity doesn’t dominate the conversation quite like ChatGPT and Gemini, but that’s not to say it should be ignored. After all, it has more than 15 million active monthly users.

Here’s how to nail a Perplexity music search for Epidemic Sound: 

1. Open Perplexity. You don’t need an account to start a search.
2. Submit your question. If you want a wider scope of responses, type something like “find old-school hip-hop music with Epidemic Sound.” Press the arrow to the left of the text field when you’re ready to search. At the very least, the answer should prompt you to click our old-school hip-hop genre page.
3. If you need more detail, try the “Perplexity Research” button below the text field. You’ll need to log in, or use your Google/Apple credentials to access this. Perplexity Research is free for a limited number of searches.
4. Scroll through the results and find the page you need. If you’ve used the Perplexity Research option, you might find a more detailed selection of individual tracks.
5. If you can’t find the track you need with Perplexity, check out the Epidemic Sound search function we mentioned earlier.

So, let’s wrap things up. While ChatGPT, Google Gemini, and Perplexity all have their merits when searching for music, they’re not designed just for that. If you want complete control over your search, try Epidemic Sound.

Our search function helps you find the right music for your project every time, then empowers you to retool, remix, and revise the soundtrack.

Don’t settle for second-best. Use Epidemic Sound.
