What is GentleSoundz?
GentleSoundz is part of the Karolinger.Games community, bringing music together with gaming and creative projects. Whether you need background music for YouTube, a soundtrack for Twitch or music for a podcast, you can explore different moods rather than a single style.
New songs and albums regularly join the catalogue. Electronic sounds, relaxed beats and epic gaming anthems offer different starting points for your project. Our recommendations below are a selection; the platforms above carry the wider catalogue.

Using GentleSoundz in your own videos and streams
You can use GentleSoundz music free of charge in videos, live streams and podcasts that you create. Our existing usage guidance also permits monetised YouTube and Twitch content. The music remains protected by copyright: permission to use it free of charge does not allow resale or republishing it as your own music.
Can I monetise my videos and streams?
Yes. Under our usage guidance, you may use the music in your own YouTube videos and Twitch streams even when they are monetised. Follow any guidance for the specific track and the platform’s rules.
Do I need to credit GentleSoundz?
Our current YouTube channel description does not require attribution. We still appreciate a voluntary credit to GentleSoundz and a link to the original, helping other creators find the music.
What is outside this permission?
Do not reupload the music as your own music offering on Spotify or other platforms. Do not turn your streaming channel into a dedicated GentleSoundz music radio station. Contact us for separate licensing if you want to use the music in games, films, series or television programmes.
What should I do about a muted stream or copyright claim?
Automatic detection can misidentify tracks. A mute is different from a copyright strike. Send us the track title, a link to your content and the notification through Discord or email so that we can investigate the case. We cannot rule out automatic detection on every platform.
Can I use GentleSoundz in a podcast?
Yes, as music in a podcast you create yourself. The same principle applies: the music supports your own content and is not republished as a standalone music offering.
Is listening free on every music platform?
You can listen free on our YouTube channel. Spotify, Amazon Music and Apple Music have their own subscription plans, account requirements and features. Free usage permission for creators does not replace a music-service subscription.
