Aswati Studio

# A halal alternative to Epidemic Sound, Artlist & Soundstripe.

The big royalty-free music subscriptions are great — but they're built on instruments. If you need audio that stays halal, here's the instrument-free option made for Muslim creators.

Epidemic Sound, Artlist, and Soundstripe are royalty-free music libraries built around instrumental tracks, so they don't fit creators who avoid musical instruments. The halal alternative is **Aswati Studio**: a subscription library of 90+ royalty-free, instrument-free background nasheeds (voice and percussion only) for $9/month — cleared for monetized use with no copyright strikes.

## Why the big libraries don't work for halal-conscious creators

Epidemic Sound, Artlist, and Soundstripe are excellent products — unlimited downloads, clean licensing, huge catalogs. But their catalogs are overwhelmingly *instrumental*. For creators who follow the position that musical instruments are best avoided, that rules out the vast majority of every one of those libraries. You end up paying $10–$20/month for a catalog you can barely use.

## Aswati Studio vs. the big subscriptions

## FAQ

### Is there a halal version of Epidemic Sound?

Not from Epidemic Sound itself — its catalog is instrumental. Aswati Studio is the closest halal equivalent: a royalty-free subscription library built entirely from instrument-free vocals.

### How much does Aswati Studio cost?

$9/month for the full library, with new tracks added monthly. There's also a free 8-track pack.

### Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. You keep using anything you downloaded while subscribed; cancelling just stops new downloads. See the license for details.
