About this track

An AI-generated instrumental: “deep sleep ambience, slow evolving pads, no percussion”. Quality-checked before listing, free for commercial and personal projects — videos, podcasts, games, streams and client work. No royalties — just credit BudgetPixel AI.

Editor's note (9.0/10): This soft, evolving pad track adheres perfectly to the brief, with no percussion and gentle consistent dynamics that sit unobtrusively under speech for short-form video use.

Music licensing — common questions

Is "Slow Night Ambient Drift" free to use commercially?
Yes. "Slow Night Ambient Drift" is free for commercial and personal use under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0) — monetised YouTube videos, podcasts, games, apps, ads, streams, films and client work are all covered, with no fees, royalties or subscription. The one condition is the credit: “Slow Night Ambient Drift” by BudgetPixel AI (https://budgetpixel.com/background-music/slow-night-ambient-drift-90eeaf83) — CC BY 4.0
Do I have to credit BudgetPixel to use "Slow Night Ambient Drift"?
Yes — crediting BudgetPixel AI is the one condition of the licence, and downloading still needs no account. Put the credit line from this page wherever your project lists sources: a video description, end credits, show notes, or a game's credits screen.
What format and length is "Slow Night Ambient Drift"?
"Slow Night Ambient Drift" runs 1 minute and downloads as WAV at 44.1 kHz, with MP3 on the same download button. Both formats carry the identical licence, so pick whichever your editor prefers — WAV for mastering headroom, MP3 for a smaller upload.
Can I use "Slow Night Ambient Drift" in a monetised YouTube video?
Yes. Monetised video is explicitly permitted. BudgetPixel never registers library audio with Content ID, and because this track is licensed to everyone non-exclusively under CC BY 4.0, no one can hold the exclusive rights Content ID requires. If a claim ever appears, dispute it and cite this page and its licence.
Can I loop or trim "Slow Night Ambient Drift"?
Yes. You can trim, loop, pitch, stretch, layer and process the track however your project needs. Keep the credit and note that you edited it — CC BY 4.0 asks you to indicate changes.
