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?

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.
Walking out onto a dimly lit stage, Sean Doherty stands alone. Picking up his guitar he turns to the audience and says, Hi guys, Im Sean, Im from Maryland, and Ive never heard of me either. This is how Doherty starts all of his performances and it seems to be catching on. Unique songs that tell his life story capture the audiences attention for the hour long set. A natural story teller; Sean shares his travels, failures, triumphs, and investigations into the human experience. By the end of the night, the crowd at Denvers Ogden Theatre has not only been introduced to new music, they have also met a new friend, and that has been Dohertys goal all along.
Growing up in Annapolis Maryland exposed the young Doherty to a variety of different music styles that would later influence his own compositions.
Many weekends were spent driving up and down the east coast playing colleges and coffee shops, which eventually led to opening gigs with Howie Day, Carbon Leaf, and Bens Bones.
2005 presented Sean with the opportunity to record for the first time on a professional level. That winter Many Things was recorded at Mill Creek Studio in Annapolis, Maryland. Under the watchful eye of producer Noel White (Dashboard Confessional, Art Garfunkle, Herbie Hancock), Sean was able to introduce himself to the world market with songs like Jimmy Lovell, Many Things, and Blue. The album also included two live radio tracks that gave the listener a better idea of Dohertys performance style. Many Things was a catalyst that launched Sean into larger venues, and bigger crowds.
2006 saw the release of Shamrocker a collection of B sides and unreleased acoustic versions of several of Doherty's songs. The album lacked the polish of Many Things and that was the original intention. Most of the songs were one off live takes that were never intended to be released, but upon the urging of friends and fans Shamrocker came into being.
Walking onstage at the World Café in Philadelphia Doherty says, Hi guys, Im Sean, Im from Maryland, and Ive never heard of me either. Members of the audience shout song requests and Doherty smiles. Apparently the word is out.Band/artist history
I was in a band called Red Cabbage. We formed in high school with myself, Chris Chappelear, Tim Gilbert, and Pat Edwards. We played our own stuff that was similar to Guster. Red Cabbage would eventually evolve into a new line up with Chappelear and Edwards being replaced by Brian Grueter on bass and John Perfetto on drums. We played some cool shows together but the band eventually fell apart. I played in a cover band with some guys from high school called American Standard. That was a good time for about a year, but I eventually was pushed out due to reasons that are still unclear to me. Those guys are all still in Annnapolis, playing the same bars, working the same day jobs. I breifly played in an Celtic Rock Band in Phailadelphia called O'Farrelly's Whiskey. Tim Gilbert and I played as a duo for a few years and had a good time, but that too came to an end and now I play solo across the country.Have you performed in front of an audience?I play all over the country. Special moments include opening for Carbon Leaf, Howie Day, and Pete Yorn. Other than that the only thing I can think of is a gig I played in Lewsiton Maine at Bates College. It was cold and gray and I played for a small crowd that just wans't into what I was playing. Probably the roughest gig that I ever played. What made it cool was after the show when the venue manager told me that I played a great set and then took me out for drinks. Beer in Maine was a good time.
