My first take on a Facebook Guitar Theory group to play over changes in a backing track. Very intersting progressions, a real challenge to get me out of my usual bluesy box.

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.

Great feeling, man. This is nice stuff.
Cool groove.
"stratwrassler", lol, I like that.. Rico, I 've been enjoying listening to your tracks with my morning coffee..blues at 5am, everybody should try it! lol. You got to my heart with the acoustic romp tune. I liked the tune with the dot 335, too. I have a gibson dot I play thru a fender blues jr. Most of the time, I play my TAKEMINE NP15C, electric acoustic in my solo gigs. I run it thru my PA, great sounding guitar. I play and sing a wide variety of genres in my gigs, but would like to incorporate more blues into my song list. I'm going to look into these backing tracks you use. that sounds pretty cool, if for nothing else, working on my blues licks. rock on, bubba..look for my new tunes coming out in the next few weeks, after I "wrassle" with this home recording process some more..grin. My gripe,"over 40 years of learning to play guitar, and NOW I have to learn the computer??" lol..charley

Caught my attention in your message to MarkC, when you mentioned slide...I was curious to drop over. My stuff is eclectic/ fusion with slide here and there. Like your 'Romp in G', (must be open G) Also dig 'Rico Crusin' with Tubenit'. Very nice variance of guitar jazzy bluesy tones. Excellent ma man. Real cool.
Good to have listened in to you.
Cheers. -Vesa.
