Leasing Beats
Common questions about non-exclusive licensing.
A non-exclusive license gives you permission to use a 905ChoZen beat to create and release one new song under the terms and usage limits of the license you purchase. The same beat may also be licensed to other artists.
No. 905ChoZen retains ownership of the beat. Your license gives you specific rights to use it in one new song. You retain ownership of lyrics and other original musical elements you create yourself.
The standard non-exclusive license term is 10 years from the effective date of the agreement.
Yes, subject to the usage limits and conditions of the license you purchase.
Yes. All four current non-exclusive license options allow for-profit performances.
No. The standard non-exclusive agreement prohibits registering the beat or your new song with Content ID or similar identification systems.
Use “Produced by 905ChoZen.”
Under the standard non-exclusive agreement, 905ChoZen retains a 50% publishing interest. If you register the song with a Performing Rights Organization, the Producer's interest must also be registered as required by the agreement.
Licenses aren't automatically upgraded. A different license normally needs to be purchased in full. Contact 905ChoZen if you need another option. Email info@905chozen.com.
Contact 905ChoZen before exceeding the limits of your license to discuss the appropriate licensing option. Email info@905chozen.com.
The standard agreement allows changes to the arrangement, length, tempo or pitch when preparing your new song.
Exclusive Licensing
No. 905ChoZen generally does not offer Exclusive licenses. If you're interested in one, contact 905ChoZen with a link to your music and some information about yourself and the intended release. Email info@905chozen.com.
Existing non-exclusive licenses issued before the Exclusive sale remain valid and are not cancelled by the Exclusive agreement.
No. The Exclusive agreement transfers the rights specified for the master recording while excluding the underlying musical composition from that transfer. Publishing and composition rights remain governed by the Exclusive agreement.
Standard Exclusive agreements retain 50% publishing for 905ChoZen. For beats supplied with a hook, the Producer share may be 75%. The exact split will be stated in the agreement before purchase.
Contact 905ChoZen with a link to your music and some information about yourself and the intended release. Exclusive licensing is handled by enquiry rather than treated as a standard store purchase. Email info@905chozen.com.
