Advice On How To Buy Hip Hop Beats Online

By Roscoe Jameson


The beat is often something people love about hip hop tracks. The best ones are available for sale from producers. However, in order to get the best quality it is worth knowing how to buy Hip Hop beats online and to know where to find these high quality tracks.



The amount of bits will affect the quality. Naturally this will affect the price. For a decent quality sound it is worth going for a 16 bit WAV. The best possible quality is to go for a 24 bit tracked out version of an instrumental. This will give you the best possible sound but will cost more.

For most people they will download the 16 bit WAV version of a beat. This tends to be a decent quality. Anyone listening to it who is not a professional is likely to think that it is a very good sounding track and for the most part will often be enough to get the sound that you want from it.

Before you buy a track it is important to check the terms and conditions. A lot of people will license their beats. This means that in effect, even though you are able to use their work on your track they will still hold the rights to their work. If you are comfortable with this then you can purchase them.

Once you have found the track and seen it is within your price range you then need to check the licensing agreement. This will refer to the usage under the terms and conditions the producer agrees to. It is vital that you check this in order to ensure that you are not breaking any of those terms or you could find yourself getting sued.

An exclusive license is one where the music producer gives all the rights to you. This is regardless of whether you are doing something as a non profit exercise or something that you intend to sell. This is often the most expensive option but the main advantage is that you will not hear those beats on any other track and it often means yours is likely to stand out from other tracks.

With a non exclusive license this is a bit more complicated. It means anyone could use it in theory. However it may be possible to contact the producer and discuss negotiable terms. For example you could pay a bit more to negotiate a period where other tracks do not use your beats. Ultimately if your budget is tight then you will have to accept that you are likely to hear that beat on other tracks.

In short when you are purchasing exclusive hip hop beats for your mixtape, you need to decide what you want and what is best suited for your sound and your individual circumstances. What should happen is you pay for your beat and you should receive a track to download soon afterwards. Remember there should be a period where you can cancel the payment if you do not receive it. Look online for producers and for feedback from artists that have used their work in the past to find the ideal beats to suit your sound.
