Soundcloud as background music source

Oh yeah! .... that dude
Hey guys!
I was just wondering if you also use some music from soundcloud in your background.
Some of you may not know that you also can search for commercial use - "certified" music, so the artist basically allows you to use his music piece if you credit them in your videos!

Long intro: short question^^
What are your favorite artists on there?
Some really organize it well so you can download every piece right from the page or from bandcamp, which is pretty awesome :)

I mostly use music from MikeDbeatsbyD... he's got the kind of laid back hip hop atmosphere with some sweet samples in it (kind of the music Louis Cole uses in his videos... he actually uses a lot of Astroblacksmith^^)

Also for the ones who look some sweet candy styled ukulele and guitar sounds, i recommend Nicolai Heidlas which is a german composer... Maybe not for everyone but still great^^

So let me know if you are active on soundcloud and what are your artists you use the most :)
I wish you all a great weekend, enjoy it^^
 
Anyone else use Premiumbeat.com? I've found quite a few good scores on there and it does seem cheaper than some other places.
 
Yep, you can actually search for music on soundcloud with a license that allows you to use the music in projects. Type something into search > In results, click on Tracks > Filter Results > To use commercially or modify commercially. For YouTube, only use songs that allow commercial use, because this is the only way you'll ever be able to monetize without having to get extra permission from the creator. The only thing you have to do is give attribution, which can just be a link to the song on soundcloud basically and the name of the creator.
