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.

Tower of Blue Horses (John Knox 2021)
Show all videos (4)
I am a singer,songwriter from Durham, North East England living in Edinburgh, Scotland and I have been writing songs for about 45 years. Influences include 60's,70's, and 80's singer songwriters, and ambient/ soundtrack music. My music is atmospheric, ambient, yet with a pop sensibility. I have performed in Belfast at the Belfast/Nashville Songwriters Festival on two occasions and also in Scotland, solo at Cabaret Voltaire, Haddington George Hotel with my friend Lindsey Mitchell. I am happy that here on Soundclick people are enjoying my songs, my most recent work is Tower of Blue Horses and I am currently producing new material.
Band/artist history
I began writing songs when I was around 15, and began to make recordings with friends,writing periods were intermittent but when I moved to Edinburgh to live, in 2001 I began to write more regularly especially when I bought a Zoom recorder so that I could make better recordings. My first live performance was at Henry's Jazz Cellar in Edinburgh where I sang Summertime with a jazz trio, shortly followed by a solo spot at Cabaret Voltaire in Edinburgh. After this I played in two concerts organised by Haddington Music Initiative. I performed at Belfast Songwriters Festival for two consecutive years, and participated in work shops led by Billy Bragg, Nik Kershaw, John Oates, Ian Archer among others. I also lead a music group in my work with people with autism. I have recorded professionally with Brit Award winning producer and engineer Iain McKinna. Musicians I have worked with are Derek Cooney (guitarist) Keith Musgrove bass player (Krisis) Lindsey Mitchell, singer/teacher. Catriona Skinner (Cellist) Catriona George (singer) and Paulo Nunes de Moura (singer) and Singer/ Songwriter/ Guitarist, Fraser McMillan. I received a Commended award in the UK Songwriting Contest, organised by the Brits Trust for the song Time Difference ( from the album of the same name), and in 2017, a Higher Commended award for the song Arrow (from the album Mist)

Hi! Thanks for the glimmer of hope..
Beautifully done John, keep up the good work.
Thanks again Brett. Funny but this song turned out different from what I Imagined it would, it's slower and I added parts of it ( the la, la's) during the two recording sessions it took to make the recording. I have grown to like it more than I did at first. Glad you like it!
Hi John, thanks for coming by. your songs are still very well written John and when you master that production thing, you will be a force to be reckoned with....really really enjoyed The Future is Ours!! love dawn
hey jhon u got some good music on here... :) keep it up man...
