I’ve already found some solutions online for this, but they don’t seem to work for audioclips. Heres what I’m trying to do.

		private static AudioClip instance;
		
	public static AudioClip Instance
		{
			get { return instance; }
		}
		
		private void Awake()
		{
			// If no Player ever existed, we are it.
			if (instance == null)
				instance = this;
			// If one already exist, it's because it came from another level.
			else if (instance != this)
			{
				Destroy(gameObject);
				return;
			}
		}
	}

this is my first time adding audio, so i’m having a hard time.

I did this by having a prefab whose sole purpose was to play music. All it had was an audio source on it with the background music I was playing. Then in a sort of “manager” script, I checked to see if the object existed. If it didn’t, instantiate the prefab and tell it not to ever be destroyed. I didn’t actually place the music in the hierarchy.
