Hello,

I am confused as to whether I can use sounds under the sample+ licence.

I would like to know if I can use the following sound in my music video which will be eventually
posted on youtube and probably monetized:

I tried contacting the author through the messages method of this site but got no answer!

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

THANKS
