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.

Recorded on a ghetto blaster onto a cassette tape made to live another day decades later. Amazing

This beautiful song written by my dear friend Danny Timms was put into my hands by Danny himself. It was an important time for Danny and I treated this fact as such. Shane, please record this song I wrote and just do your Shane thing to it and please put it on the front burner OK? This request by my friend and master musician I did take very seriously and proceeded to work on this piece right after Danny shut the front door of my humble studio behind him as he left. I made some calls to local musicians I respected and whom I knew could handle the ideas I immediately had in mind. I figured that Bass, Piano, Strings, Harmonica and Vocals would be a great format to get the message across. No guitar on this one because in my minds eye, I thought the message would get muddied up. As it turned out, I felt the piece came out right, being that important vocal delivery of a real life story of love is at the very for front. Most importantly to me though, is when Danny came by the studio

This song was such a great time doing. i recall writing as the tape rolled along and all of a sudden I was kinda matching the tempos with the lyrical bends and twists in their definitions as I was laying it down on tape. I added an electric guitar and a piano to decorate the feel as the moods shift. All in all the track was simply a riot to do and for years to come I know that I will dig it just a much at every listen. Now playing along to it today, well thats a jam sure to keep your rhythm chops in shape, especially simultaneously done with the vocal.
