City Nights 3

Late-night chillwave in mostly minor keys: deep sub-bass, soft piano and a tight half-time groove. 14 songs of dreamy chillwave and ambient downtempo by Purrple Cat, free to play here in full, download and use with credit under CC BY 4.0.

This album isn't in the lists (it's a little brighter, busier or spookier than they allow), but every song is here in full. Its sleepiest song is Half Awake.

Free to use

  • All social media. YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Twitch, Facebook, X and the rest, including monetised videos, lullaby and bedtime videos, sleep streams, Shorts and Reels.
  • Other projects too. Podcasts, bedtime-story and meditation content, games, apps, ads, client work and school projects.
  • Edit it to fit. Cut, loop, slow down or fade songs, and say it's edited in the credit.

Never

  • Never re-upload or release it on streaming services such as Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Deezer or Tidal, through a distributor or any other route.
  • Never release remixes, samples or covers of it on streaming services either.
  • Never register it in Content ID or claim other people's videos with it.

Why so strict about streaming? Re-uploads, remixes, samples and covers on Spotify, Apple Music and other services get fingerprinted, and then false Content ID claims hit everyone who uses the music properly. Purrple Cat Self Releases have no Content ID, so there's nothing to clear when you use them as intended.
