I’m sure others will come along with their suggestions - that was the one that came to mind first and, since it’s another member, worth a plug. :wink:

You can totally free music free via YouTube studio. it’s not all good, so you have to be selective, but it is a good staring point and totally free!

A useful tip is to pick your music first and edit the video to match. Transitions on the beat and visual images that match the words can make it look quite slick. It’s what I attempted here, well with two words anyway.

Nice! :+1: I need to get my head round movie editing first, finding it all quite uphill but love a challenge.
