This section is primarily for those that wish to license tracks for audiovisual or commercial use. Song, track and beat are all contained within the ‘material‘. Individual track licensing information is available at SoundClick.
Leasing rights
You will receive a copy of the material in any of these formats:
- Hi-quality MP3, 320 kbps, untagged (free of soundmarks)
- Raw WAV
- Self-contained Reason 4 file
- MIDI file
The song file is delivered direct from web or email. Leasing rights allow you to use the material for ONE commercial recording or broadcast. This recording can then be distributed at your price for up to 2,000 copies. Selling more than 2,000 copies means you must acquire a new lease or exclusive rights. You may also use the material for non-profit promotional use or demos. You have full rights to record, alter, mix the material in any shape, way, or form (except reselling the material). You will receive a contract in the mail granting you non-exclusive rights to the material.
In the event that someone buys exclusive rights to the material you have leased, your rights shall stand and the material is still yours to use. You may also acquire new leasing rights if you sell more than 2,000 copies since your contract predates exclusive sale. I will not receive a royalty from the sale of records or downloads outside the scope of the Icelandic Performance Rights Society (STEF) and similar organizations. You must give full credit to me on all commercial recordings. Upon purchasing leasing rights, I still owns the material and can resell it to any other party until exclusive rights have been purchased.
Exclusive rights
You will receive a copy of the song in any of these formats:
- Hi-quality MP3, 320 kbps, untagged (free of soundmarks)
- Raw WAV
- Self-contained Reason 4 file
- MIDI file
The song file is delivered direct from web or email. Exclusive rights grant you unlimited commercial recordings and broadcasts. You have full rights to record, alter, mix the material in any shape, way, or form (except reselling the material). You will receive a contract in the mail granting you exclusive rights to the material.
You own the recording as a “work made for hire“. I may no longer lease or sell the material, except for prior leasing rights holders and their own promotional pages. I will not receive a royalty from the sale of records or downloads including fees collected by the Icelandic Performance Rights Society (STEF) and similar organizations. You must, however, give full credit to me on all commercial recordings.
