A mild departure for me, but I think I pulled it off. I don't really know what to call it, but my dog really really digs it.

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.

ACOUSTICATS-TAKIN' IT EASY
Show all videos (9)
I've been writing, recording and performing music for longer than I care to admit. Let's just say 20-25 years... give or take... as the crow flies.
In the studio I do about everything except drums. I'm not 'great' at anything, just 'pretty good' at a lot of different things.
I currently front 7 different line ups and outfits of various shapes and sizes and that keeps me playing pretty much year around. I can scale it down for budget-gigs and I can expand it out for the 'Big Show'.
Current Acts:
1. SOLO- Louie McNeal
(Acoustic Guitar and Vocal)
2. DUO 1- Fitzpatrick/ McNeal
(2 Acoustic Guitars and 2 Vocals)
3. DUO 2 - Mc2
(Acoustic Guitar, Bass and 2 Vocals)
4. TRIO 1. - Acousticats
(2 Acoustic Guitars, Upright Bass and 3 Vocals)
5. TRIO 2. - Hard Edits
(Electric Guitar, Bass, Drums and 3 vocals
6. TRIO 3. - LTC
(2 Acoustic Guitars, Percussion and 3 vocals)
7. QUARTET- Long Time Coming
(Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Bass, Drums and 4 Vocals)
[Though the majority of these bands and acts primarily focus on genre specific cover material, they are all capable of performing our impressive catalog of original compositions, when the opportunity presents itself.]
I have recorded and produced 9 of my own albums (most available here on this site) and I have produced countless other acts and performers throughout my region.
I love collaborating on songwriting. Some of my more accessible and popular tracks are ones where I worked with a collaborator.
Music is my life. I sacrificed a LOT to be able to do it on my own terms and be happy about it. There are easier ways to go, but I prefer the more challenging aspects of writing, recording and performing my music. I really like the phrase, "A calm and easy ocean will make a lousy sailor out of you." Don't know who said it, but I seem to live by it.
Band/artist history
Writing, recording and performing for far too long to stop anytime soon.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Nearly every weekend, for the past 3 decades.
Your musical influences
Classic-Rock of all eras. Some country songs that are story-oriented with good hooks and lots of folk music from the 60's and 70's.
What equipment do you use?
Currently using a Taylor T5 through a Vox 80watt amp.
Anything else?
Life's music will play whether or not you are the one playing it. Might as well grab an instrument and join in.

This thing is ROLLIN´. Great slide and acoustic work!
Singing could be even more up front, but this is a minor thing.
All together great stuff!

Hi Louie...
You've got a lot of really cool music here. I listened to a few of them. You sure do cover a lot of musical territory.
I like this track here...that "rolling down the track" kind of beat that just don't quit...great stuff...and some good lyrics and singing to boot. I like the acoustic guitar in this one...it may be acoustic...but it takes no prisoners. Great stuff!
Hugs...Mike (NAV)
