The Most Common Reason: The 60-Second Rule
TikTok automatically mutes any video that uses more than 59 seconds of a single song. This is a TikTok platform policy — not a Slipstream issue.
The Fix
For TikToks longer than 1 minute, use multiple songs and keep each song to 59 seconds or less. You can use as many songs as you need in one video.
Business Accounts
TikTok Business accounts have stricter music rules. They can only use songs from TikTok's Commercial Music Library (CML) — even if the music is licensed through Slipstream.
Slipstream can distribute individual tracks to the TikTok CML. This process takes 3–5 business days and is best suited for planned campaigns. Contact support@slipstreammusic.com to arrange this.
