What Makes Artyfile Action Music Different
Every track in the Action Music category is performed by real musicians and delivered in 44.1 kHz WAV; Artyfile's orchestral catalog is recorded by world-class ensembles and musicians at world-class studios like Abbey Road Studios. Not an AI generation, not a MIDI-only library production. The result is the dynamic range, physical weight, and emotional aggression that live brass, strings, and percussion deliver — qualities that separate a convincing chase sequence or trailer from one that sounds synthetic under pressure.
The composer and founder Paul Lorenz brings 30 years of experience and over 500 million streams to every cue. Action tracks are composed to serve specific editorial needs: rising tension, explosive hits, sustained intensity, and the kind of rhythmic drive that locks to picture cuts.
Rights: Fully Cleared for Action, Chase, Fight, and Trailer Use
"Fully cleared" means Artyfile manages both the synchronization right and the master right directly. Specifically:
- No additional GEMA or collection-society fee on the licence — sync and master rights are managed directly by Artyfile.
- Content ID claim, never a strike — Artyfile registers its catalog in YouTube Content ID with a monetization policy. A claim may appear; it is not a copyright strike, and your video stays online. With Basic, ad revenue claimed for the music goes to Artyfile, not to your channel.
- Documented rights — the licence certificate documents your rights for the lifetime of your project. YouTube Shorts follow the same claim logic — since 24 September 2026, Shorts of one to three minutes with an active claim are no longer blocked automatically.
- Worldwide, lifetime synchronization and master-use — one license covers all territories and all future uses of that specific cut.
This matters acutely for action content: trailer houses, games publishers, and social media advertisers routinely lose revenue or face account penalties from uncleared music. With Artyfile, the rights are cleared and documented at the licensing stage.
Pricing and Ownership Options
Artyfile Basic — €29.90 per track. A single payment grants a lifetime, worldwide synchronization and master-use license. Instant WAV download, no subscription, no recurring fees. Correct for short films, YouTube content, ads, and indie game trailers.
Artyfile Limited Edition — €69.90 per 1% master share. Own between 1% and 10% of the master (max. 20 shares per recording), entered as a numbered share in Artyfile’s ownership register. You share pro rata in streaming, Content ID and third-party sync revenue generated by that recording — not guaranteed and may be zero; Limited Edition is not an investment product. Relevant for producers and music supervisors who want usage rights plus a registered share of the master.
Both tiers include the same fully cleared rights and the same 44.1 kHz WAV master.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I find action music that is safe to use in trailers and YouTube videos without copyright strikes?
Artyfile's Action Music category offers tracks recorded by real orchestras — Artyfile's orchestral catalog is recorded by world-class ensembles and musicians at world-class studios like Abbey Road Studios. Sync and master rights are managed directly by Artyfile, and the catalog is registered in YouTube Content ID with a monetization policy: a claim may appear, but it is not a copyright strike — your video stays online and your channel stays safe.
What does a license for action or chase music cost on Artyfile?
The Artyfile Basic license costs €29.90 per track and covers lifetime, worldwide synchronization and master use with a single payment. No subscription is required. The Artyfile Limited Edition costs €69.90 per 1% master share and additionally grants 1–10% ownership of the master, entered as a numbered share in Artyfile’s ownership register.
Why does it matter that the action music is recorded by a real orchestra rather than MIDI or loops?
Live orchestral recordings — a real orchestra at the core instead of AI or MIDI-only libraries — produce the dynamic range, transient impact, and tonal depth that synthetic mockups cannot replicate. For action, chase, and fight cues, this translates directly into emotional intensity and professional credibility in sync placements.
Are there any additional GEMA or collection-society fees when I license action music from Artyfile?
No. Sync and master rights are managed directly by Artyfile, so there is no additional GEMA or collection-society fee on the licence. The €29.90 Basic license is the complete cost for worldwide, lifetime sync and master use.
Can I own a share of an Artyfile action music track, and what does that include?
Yes. The Artyfile Limited Edition (€69.90 per 1% master share) allows you to own 1–10% of the master recording, entered as a numbered share in Artyfile’s ownership register. Ownership includes a proportional share of streaming royalties and sync royalties generated by that track, in addition to the full sync and master-use license for your own projects. That revenue share is not guaranteed and may be zero; Limited Edition is not an investment product.
