Licensing

Revised MMXXVI
Plain-English edition

Every beat in the catalog is offered under four license tiers. They stack in what you receive (the higher tiers include everything below them) and in what you’re allowed to do with it. The actual contract you sign at checkout is the source of truth — this page is the everyday translation.

Tier I

MP3 Lease

$35
Up to 5,000 streams · 1 music video

The entry point. Great for SoundCloud loosies, YouTube uploads, and demos.

  • Untagged 320 kbps MP3
  • Non-exclusive — Gino can license the beat to other artists
  • Producer credit required: "prod. Gino" in title + description
  • No profit-bearing distribution on Spotify/Apple once you pass the cap
  • Upgrade to WAV, Trackouts, or Exclusive any time by paying the difference
Tier II

WAV Lease

$60
Up to 50,000 streams · 1 music video

The minimum most mixers will ask for. Same rights, better file.

  • Untagged 24-bit WAV + the MP3 from Tier I
  • Non-exclusive
  • Producer credit required: "prod. Gino"
  • Paid distribution allowed on all major DSPs within the cap
  • Broadcast/commercial sync available on request
Tier III

Trackout Lease

$125
Up to 250,000 streams · Unlimited music videos

For serious records. You get the individual stems so your mixer can actually do their job.

  • All stems / trackouts (drums, 808s, keys, melody, fx, etc.)
  • Everything in Tiers I and II
  • Non-exclusive
  • Producer credit required
  • You can re-pitch, re-chop, re-arrange — it's your record now
Tier IV

Exclusive

from $1,500
Unlimited — no cap ever

You buy the beat outright. Nobody else can ever license it again.

  • All files: trackouts, WAV, MP3
  • Beat is removed from wavstash.net the moment payment clears
  • No streaming cap, no revenue share, no re-lease
  • Producer credit still required ("prod. Gino") on releases
  • Signed buyout contract delivered with the files

Trackout & exclusive licenses available on request. Email ginofurboproductions@gmail.com to request trackouts or negotiate pricing for an exclusive license.

Frequently Asked

What is the difference between leasing and exclusive rights?

Leasing (non-exclusive) allows multiple artists to use the same beat with set limitations (e.g., stream limits), while exclusive rights mean the producer “Gino” sells half of his rights for the beat to one artist and removes the beat from the store.

Can I upload to streaming platforms (Spotify/Apple Music) with a lease?

Yes. All produced by “Gino” beat leases allow uploads to streaming platforms.

What happens if someone buys exclusive rights after I lease a beat?

Your license remains valid for the full term, even if the beat is sold exclusively later.

What happens if my song blows up past the stream cap?

You need to upgrade to the next tier. The cap is the ceiling for that license, not a hard cutoff — but distributing past it without upgrading is a breach.

Can I use the beat for free?

Many producers allow “free for non-profit” use, which means you can use it on YouTube or SoundCloud, but you cannot monetize it (no Spotify/Apple Music) without purchasing a lease.

When do I get my files?

Files (MP3, WAV, or Stems) are immediately downloaded from your web browser with a signed copy of your beat license agreement.

Do the beats come untagged?

Yes, once you purchase a license (lease or exclusive), the voice tags are removed.

What are stems (trackouts)?

Stems are the individual tracks of the beat (kick, snare, melody, etc.) in WAV format, which allow a sound engineer to mix your vocals better.

Do I need to re-license for a music video?

No — every tier includes at least 1 music video. A second video requires a new license of the same tier.

Exclusive pricing?

Exclusive prices start from $1,500 and scale with how active the beat is in the catalog. Email ginofurboproductions@gmail.com for a quote.
