This means you cannot copy an audio track of your favorite musician(s) to include in a teaching resource. Therefore, you need to find music with an open copyright license.

Many tracks are licensed with the Non-Comercial (NC) restriction, which you need to consider when licensing your re-mixed work. If you would like to use tracks with more flexible licences, use the filter &#8216;free for commercial use&#8217; when you are searching.\n<\/li>\n<li> <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"https:\/\/freesound.org\/browse\/\">Freesound<\/a> is a collaborative database of Creative Commons Licensed sounds, and is a good source for sound effects.
