Trending sounds by niche: what top Reels and TikToks use this week

We looked at the audio behind 469 top Reels and TikToks (10K+ views) posted in the last 21 days in 8 niches. 136 used a named song or sound; the other 71% used original audio.

Updated Oct 3, 2026 · based on 469 videos · How we measure

Only 5 sounds show up in more than one top video — “Patient Zero — Taylor Swift” leads with 3. That is the honest picture of trending sounds inside a niche: a few songs repeat, while most top videos use their own audio or a song nobody else in the sample used. Original audio is the norm on both platforms here: 83% of top TikToks and 66% of top Reels.

How to use it: if your niche has a repeating sound, that is the strongest signal in this sample. Otherwise take a sound from one of your niche’s top videos below and pair it with your own format — and keep an original-audio version ready.
