Tobu is the project of Latvian producer Toms Burkovskis, and Infectious was released through NoCopyrightSounds in 2014 as a free track creators could use in their videos. That open licensing helped the song spread quickly across YouTube, especially in gaming, vlog and montage channels looking for copyright safe electronic music. Its short melodic hook became instantly recognisable from countless intros and outros during the mid 2010s, and it remains in use because it signals upbeat, creator made content without needing dialogue or lyrics.
About this sound
A short clip of Tobu Infectious, the energetic NCS electronic track widely used in gaming videos, YouTube intros and montage edits as background music.
This ten second clip captures the bright, bouncy drop from Tobu's Infectious, built around a chirpy lead synth, tight electronic drums and a rising melodic hook that loops cleanly. The tone is upbeat and playful rather than aggressive, with a polished EDM sheen that instantly signals energy and momentum. When it lands over gameplay, a product clip or a fast cut sequence, it lifts the mood, makes ordinary footage feel dynamic and gives viewers a familiar, feel good cue that something fun is about to happen.
