Lease Licenses:


You will receive an encoded MP3 file of the untagged song and a copy of the raw WAV file. The song file can be delivered digitally or through the mail on a CD. Leasing rights allow you to use the beat (or song) for ONE commercial recording or broadcast. This recording can then be distributed at your price for up to 2500 copies.


Selling more than 2500 copies means you must acquire a new lease or exclusive rights. You may also use the beat for non-profit promotional use or demos. You have the rights to master the beat/song in any shape, but not to edit the arrangement of the  beat or resell it. You will receive a contract in the mail granting you non-exclusive rights to the beat.


 In the event that someone buys exclusive rights to the beat you have leased, your rights shall stand and the beat is still yours to use. The seller will not receive a royalty from the sale of records or downloads. You must however give full credit to the seller (artist and/or producer name) on all commercial recordings and finished products. Upon purchasing leasing rights, the seller still owns the beat(s) and the seller is able to resell the beat(s) to any other party until exclusive rights have been purchased.
