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.
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.
Hello and welcome, I am Chris. I write songs and I record them. I was formed in 1984 with the help of my parents. I then went on to develop a taste for music and here am I now...Have you performed in front of an audience?On occasion with my band. I'd love to play some solo gigs soon.
Your musical influences
The Beatles, Rush, E.L.P, King Crimson. Progressive rock Musically and once I heard Frank Zappa I knew I couldn't possibly write serious lyrics. Growing up with the Transformers also takes it's toll musically, nothing like some hard rockin' 80's tunes.What equipment do you use?
Gibson SG, Epiphone Casino, A cheap acoustic from Donegal. Hughes and Kettner Attax 80, Marshall Dsl 100. Various effects pedals, Zoom MRS-802...and of course a casio Keyboard!Anything else?
I have a fascination with the number 47. It haunts me

Interesting 60's pop vibe on "Miss Endeavor". Is that vocal feel - like recording through an old bullet mic and playing back on vinyl - intentional?
I listened to The Scribe The Cucumber The Pharisee And The Nymph. You have a very different sound. It does sound kinda 60's to me. Very interesting. I really enjoyed listening.
If you get some time, please stop by and check out my stuff. I would appreciate any feedback.
Have a great day :)
