Custom Beat Production
A One-on-One Collaboration to Define Your Sound.
A Custom Beat is more than a transaction—it is a partnership. While a license from the library gives you access to a world-class instrumental, a Custom Production is built from the ground up to fit your vocal range, your flow, and your unique brand identity.
The Custom Advantage
When you commission a custom work from Stephen Allen Music Group®, you move beyond the "standard" lease terms into a professional production partnership.
-
Exclusive to You: Your beat is unique. It is never added to the public library and never licensed to another artist.
-
50/50 Revenue Partnership: Unlike standard leases, Custom Beats unlock a 50/50 split on YouTube Content ID revenue. We win together.
-
Built for Your Voice: We discuss tempo, key, and "vocal pockets" to ensure the production complements your delivery perfectly.
-
Professional Stems Included: Every custom project includes full multitrack stems (track-outs) for elite-tier mixing and mastering.
The Process: How It Works
1. The Inquiry & Brief
You provide the vision. We need to know your desired Genre, Tempo, Instrumentation, and at least 2-3 Reference Tracks.
2. Right of Refusal
To maintain a high standard of quality, I only accept projects where I know I can deliver an elite result. I review every brief to ensure our creative styles align before any payment is made.
3. The Production Phase
Once accepted, a 50% non-refundable deposit secures your spot on the production schedule. I build the foundation and send you the first "Vibe Check."
4. Refinement
Every custom project includes [Insert Number, e.g., 2] rounds of revisions. We tweak the drums, adjustments, and transitions until the record is perfect.
5. Delivery & Registration
Upon final payment, you receive all high-resolution files. We then move into the Registration Phase, ensuring the song is properly filed with BMI, The MLC, and SoundExchange for a clean professional release.
