Tasty content should be accompanied with exciting music that makes the cooking process look easy and funny.
What music to choose for a food video? First of all, it should be light and breezy to show that there’s nothing difficult in cooking a dish. The music should attract and entertain the viewer and inspire them to do the same.
Another approach is to select the background music depending on the cuisine or traditions associated with the dish. For example, classic recipes like the roast turkey will work well with jazz or orchestral compositions, while exotic dishes can be accompanied with happy Indie Pop background.
Whether you use the same music for each of your videos or choose different songs according to the recipe, the good music will help to make your channel fresh and interesting.
