Background music for video that matches your finished cut

Social clips and short videos are timed to the frame. ExactMusic builds instrumental BGM for the length of your finished recipe, travel, Reel, or Short—so you are not looping a stock bed under a 42-second story.

Why short-video length is the starting point

Caption timing, jumps, and location sound already set the runtime. Enter that number, then describe a lighter arrangement if dialogue or ambient audio already fills the mix. Download the MP3 and check it on speakers your audience might use.

How to generate video BGM

1. 1. Export or measure the finished clip

   Use the timeline length after your main cuts. Include a title card or end card if music should cover it.

2. 2. Match mood to the footage

   Light acoustic guitar and hand percussion suit travel; a simple electronic pulse suits product clips. Keep the prompt instrumental.

3. 3. Check the mix on real devices

   Preview with picture and any dialogue. Lower music where location sound matters, and add a fade if the ending needs one.

Hear a short-video sample

The 42-second custom-cut bed below mirrors an arbitrary finished edit. Also try 15s ads, 30s voiceover, and 60s explainer demos.

Example prompts for short video

• Light acoustic guitar, hand percussion, relaxed sunny mood, a simple instrumental rhythm for a short travel video
• Soft lo-fi beat, warm keys, easygoing instrumental bed for a recipe Reel
• Bright ukulele and light claps, cheerful social-clip energy, instrumental only

Video BGM FAQ

My Reel is 42 seconds. Can I use that length?

Yes. Enter any whole number from 5 to 120. Separate generations can produce different music, so treat each length as its own cue.

Is there a free preview?

Guest free preview covers up through 60 seconds—including 15, 30, and 60 second presets—limited by preview count and rate limits. Longer tracks need sign-in and credits.

What if my clip already has dialogue?

Ask for a lighter arrangement and leave room for speech or location sound. Balance the MP3 in your editor after you download it.
