3 Benefits of Using Free Beats For Your Upcoming Album

3 Benefits of Using Free Beats For Your Upcoming Album
By Erick B Carlson

It's not easy being an artist these days. To create an entire Album can cost upwards of $500 dollars or more and that's if it's cheap. You have to purchase studio time, buy beats, and get your songs copyrighted. That's of course before all of the marketing that you will have to do for your first album launch. Marketing alone can be in the thousands or more depending on your budget. If this is your first album you should not waste all of your money on beats. Most artists won't get discovered until a couple albums in anyways. Using free beats will give you practice that you need without having to pay the high cost of licensing instrumentals. Here are a couple of the benefits of using free beats.

Save Money

Artists usually don't get discovered right away and if they do it's usually because they know the right people. If you don't know a lot of people starting out I would suggest building up a fan base before you even think about buying beats or copyrighting your songs. You are probably going to spend over $1,000 on your first album and only going to sell about 50 copies. Unless you know a lot of people already you are probably not going to sell many copies of your first album.

Practice

The best thing about free beats is the practice you get. Nothing is better than recording songs on beats that are high quality. That's the great thing about free beats. You get to use them without paying. Some producers will even put fewer tags on the beat so that the artist can make a great sounding track without the producers tag on it every 5 seconds. Practice makes perfect and while you are in the beginning stages of recording this is a great way to get it.

Exposure

If you happen to make a great sounding track to one of these beats that you download for free, submit it to the producer who made the track. Most producers will support artists who make great songs to their beats. They will even host the song on their page and give you free exposure. The only thing better than using free beats for your recordings is getting free exposure at the same time. Getting on producers pages can be a great start to your career. Some of these producers know big people in the industry. They could help you further your career.
