Beat Licence Terms
The standard licence terms for beats purchased from the C-Raw Studios Beat Store.
Last updated: 3 September 2026
Overview
These Beat Licence Terms apply to each £150 beat purchased from the C-Raw Studios online Beat Store unless the individual listing or a signed agreement states otherwise. Each purchase is a one-time exclusive purchase. A separate, automatically generated Beat Licence recording the buyer, beat, producer, purchase date, price and applicable terms is supplied with the download. These terms form part of the agreement alongside the C-Raw Studios Booking Terms & Conditions.
The £150 purchase
The total price is £150. Following confirmed payment, the buyer receives the finished, untagged WAV instrumental. Stems are not included as standard and may be supplied only through a separately agreed request or charge. Custom production is available at £150 plus the default 20% producer publishing share, subject to written variation; custom production does not include studio recording time.
Exclusivity
After successful payment the beat is marked sold and removed from public sale. C-Raw Studios and the producer will not knowingly sell or license that beat to another artist. The buyer must not resell, sublicense or distribute the standalone instrumental as a beat, sample pack, production library item or competing instrumental product.
Ownership of masters
The buyer owns each new master recording they create using the beat after full payment, subject to the underlying composition and any third-party rights. No standard producer master royalty or master ownership is granted to the producer unless separately agreed in writing.
Producer publishing share
The named producer — currently Beau unless the listing states otherwise — retains 20% of the musical composition and associated publishing income. The producer's 20% applies to every song or materially different composition commercially released using the beat unless otherwise agreed in writing. The artist and other applicable writers retain or divide the remaining 80%, subject to any separately agreed songwriting contributions.
Credit and registration
The buyer must credit the named producer and accurately register splits before or promptly after release. Where applicable, the credit will be "Produced by Beau". The parties should cooperate in accurately registering the composition with PRS for Music, MCPS, a publisher or administrator as applicable.
No artificial cap
The buyer may create, release, distribute, stream, monetise, perform, broadcast and promote music made using the beat without an artificial cap on streams, sales, monetised videos, performances or broadcasts.
Protecting the producer's rights
The buyer may register and protect their completed master recording through a distributor or content-identification service, but must not knowingly make an ownership claim that falsely captures the producer's standalone instrumental or composition, interferes with the producer's retained rights, or blocks authorised uses.
Variation
All beat fees, ownership positions and royalty splits may be varied for a particular project only through a written agreement accepted by the relevant parties. For significant commercial releases, all parties may be required to sign a more detailed producer agreement.
