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.
This is a solo project created by Erick Lavigne. ME :) I decided years ago, after my fulltime band broke up, to start doing what I love the most, writting, and recording but also releasing the songs for free on the internet. Many of the songs you will hear from BSD have a very wide range of flavor, everything from piano ballads, to in your face heavy rock. I have always fealt that any song a person writes is a good one, because it came from deep withnin them, and should be played!!!
Band/artist history
Started in 1995, on hold from 2000 to 2004, and reborn.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Unfortunatly no, I am a solo artist, I write and record every part on my own, but who knows, if the demand is there, I may put a band together :)
Your musical influences
Anything that makes me feel. (from bethoven to white zombie, and everything in between)
What equipment do you use?
Esp guitars and bases, Line 6 amps are my fav choices :) other than that, anything I can get my hands on :)
Anything else?
ahh, umm, I think im gonna have a nap now ;)
