Vally Studio Beat Licensing Policy

 

Vally Studio
Effective Date: 2026/07/18

1. Overview

 

Valley Studio provides artists with access to high-quality instrumentals produced by our in-house and affiliated producers. To ensure that both artists and producers are fairly protected, all beats are distributed under clearly defined licensing agreements.

Each license type grants different levels of usage rights, streaming limits, and exclusivity. Artists must select the license that best fits their intended use of the beat before releasing music commercially.

Our licensing structure consists of four main options:

  • Non-Exclusive License – Limited streaming rights with shared use of the beat.

  • Unlimited License – Unlimited streaming rights but still non-exclusive.

  • Exclusive License – Full exclusive rights to an existing beat.

  • Custom Production License – A completely custom beat created specifically for the artist.

All licenses include mandatory producer credit and royalty splits to ensure that the creators of the music are properly compensated for their work.

Artists are responsible for ensuring that producer credits and royalty percentages are properly registered with:

  • Digital distributors

  • Performing Rights Organizations (PROs)

  • Any publishing administration services used for the release

Failure to properly allocate royalties or credit the producer may result in licensing disputes, revenue claims, or takedown requests submitted to the relevant platforms.
