VS23

Been Djing since the late 90's and started making my own electronic music a few years ago. I'm quite eclectic, playing / making songs of styles like Breaks

One Last Dance (B4 I GO)

Deep progressive house track with trippy voices of a child asking presumably her mother "why won't you cover me?" Sounds like a ghost repeating the same question. Kind of chilling, but gripping, very danceable EDM track. Licenses on Beatstars.

FAQ
Why would I need a license?
A license is needed if you want to use the music for anything else than just listening for your pleasure. Typical uses are
  • freestyling over a beat
  • licensing music for use in TV or for a movie
  • remixing or use audio samples
What are the license options and what are the differences between those?
We offer up to 5 license templates (Basic, Premium, Track Out, Unlimited, Exclusive) and it's up to the artist which ones he/she wants to make available. Each license comes with different perks. In general, the higher the price, the better the perks.
You can click on each feature on the left side of the comparison chart above to learn more about each one.
When will I get the track I purchased?
You can download all related files immediately after your purchase. We also email you a one-time download link for a download later.
How can I remove the audio tag from the track?
A "tagged beat" is a demonstration version of an instrumental that contains distinct audio watermarks that typically play throughout the entire track. The purpose of a producer tagging his/her instrumental is to prevent piracy and to encourage serious recording artists to purchase a license.
To get a tag-free audio please make sure you purchase a license which features "untagged audio".
I purchased a $1 download, why is the beat still tagged?
Beats purchased for $1 in our store are meant for streaming and demo use only, just like downloads from iTunes store or Amazon music.
To license a beat without audio tag and to use in a professional manner please buy a license from this page. Usually those are $25 and up.
What is a stem / trackout file?
A Stem file is an audio file that contains a track split into several musical elements: A drums stem, a bassline stem, a harmony stem, and a lead stem for example.
The Stem file also usually includes the original stereo master of the track for standard playback.
Why would I need a stem / trackout file?
A trackout file gives you much better control. Imagine you rap over a beat and you realize the percussions take the focus away from your vocals. With a trackout file you can simply tone down the percussion and the focus is now on the vocals. With a trackout file you have much more flexibility and a whole different level of control.
I love spinning records. Now I produce tracks, and there's nothing like watching a dance floor go nutz over a song you produced.
Band/artist history
VS23 started Djing in the Pittsburgh party scene back in '98, affiliated with Candy Gang Productions as well as Rise Up!. Later he moved to Puerto Rico, and was the scratch dj for the group, Slimy Nuggetz (Tenet Records). While in Puerto Rico, he performed on several television shows, including "Tarde en la Noche con Luis Gonzales"(The Late Show), "Frente Sonico" (Sonic Front), and the "Sprite Spring Break TV Tour". Over the years, he's played shows in Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Philadelphia, State College, Baltimore, Virginia, Puerto Rico, London, UK and on Drum n Bass TV's radio show on the worldwide web. Also his original productions have been played on the Mixdown FM Radio show in Nashville, TN, as well as a several online radio stations. After taking a six year break from public performances, he came back in 2007 performing at Play 3.0 and Play Breaks Edition, and as a result gained a slew of other bookings, and a new crew affiliation- Bad Moral Character. Already in 2008 he's played on Drum n Bass TV several times, as well Twisted Production's "Heaven On Earth", BMC's "Dance Out Loud" in March, and "Wardance" on May 3rd, as well as a headlining slot at Rehab Records' "Tantric" in Virginia on May 2nd. Since May, VS23 has rocked out in the main room at two Tru Skool parties (one of them opening for the legendary Dj Dara), as well as one of the headlining slots at Pulsar Productions' "Pulse" in Baltimore. Though Breaks are his specialty, VS23 is known for his diversity in genres, so don't be surprised to hear some Drum n Bass, UK garage, Electro, House, Techno, Trance, Hip Hop and even Ghettotech. Look for big things in 2009 from this "up-and-comer" who's no stranger to the spotlight.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Absolutely. See band history. As for special moments... opening for the Crystal Method and Faith in Chaos (Dylan and Robyn Chaos) at the Tito Puente Amphitheater was my favorite show i've played to date. Or maybe it was headlining the back room of the Intergalactic Toga Party, or was it the party out in the woods in NJ, or my first big event, "Shake" (your booty) back in 1998 by Kandy Gang productions in Pittsburgh.
Your musical influences
For electronic music, there's the people I came up listening to like Sasha and Digweed, Oakenfold, Dj Icey, Danny the Wildchild, J-Smooth, Paul Van Dyke. Also I am influenced by music that sounds nothing like what I produce. I could hear a beat or chord progression from Sublime or Radiohead and think, "hey if I changed that patch a little and added .... that could be a cool groove." I've also learned a lot from fellow artists, and would be lying if I said I wasn't influenced by people like Mark Sandstorm, A23P, Vaerna, Cereal Killaz (or whatever Alan's calling himself nowadays), Metachemical, Vapah, Frankie Bones, Decibel Flekx.... the list is too long to mention them all. Since I play so many different styles, I'm influenced by just about anything electronic, be it acid, breaks, trance, techno, house, drum n bass, hip hop, dubstep, UK garage, etc.
What equipment do you use?
Ableton Live 7, Audacity, Switch, Korg Electribe, Oxygen 8, Shure KSM27, Samson C-valve preamp, 2 tech 12's, Propellerhead's Rebirth, Sennheiser headphones, and a ton of VSTi's.
