Beat Making

Beat Making FAQs

• What services can I expect in Beat Making on Fiverr?

  Unlike music producers, who make all kinds of music including metal, jazz, R&B, classical, when we refer to the “beat making” category here, it’s usually freelancers who almost always make hip-hop or rap music. A beatmaker operates mainly the DAW, MIDI instruments to create original, type or chorus beats. Beats also come in different moods from bouncy, energetic, happy and inspiring to sad, dark, intense, soulful or chill. Additionally, beatmakers can also provide mixing & mastering or separated tracks.

• What else can I order from a freelance beat maker?

  Depending on their experience and the instruments and kit they use, many freelance beatmakers on Fiverr can also compose, record and mix loops or sound kits for your songs or beats. They can do it in over 16 genres incl. Trap, Hip-Hop, Rap, LoFi, House and Techno and provide either melodic or percussive sound types. So whether you need a guitarist, piano or drum player to record your loops or sound packages, you can find a variety of freelancers.

• How do I choose the best freelance beat maker?

  Apart from reading about the freelancers, checking their reviews and asking for a sample pack, you can also do some research on streaming services such as Spotify and Youtube Music to find out about their published songs with other artists. Don’t forget to ask them about what kit they use and their experience depending on what type of instrument you need the beat or loop recorded on e.g. keyboard, turntables, digital samplers, synthesizers, sequencers, drum or tape machines.

• What would I need to provide with my order for beat making?

  It’s best to always contact the freelancer before placing an order to agree on the details of what you need to provide in order to speed up production times. For most gigs, you will be asked to give your seller at least the type of sound and vibe you prefer, the genre and BPM. Most freelancers will also ask you to share references from which to take inspiration and will agree with you on the copyright and intellectual property details.

• How can I make sure I get the best out of working with a beatmaker on Fiverr?

  Make sure you specify and agree on the recording length in seconds, the number of sounds as well as how many revisions you’ll be offered and the delivery time. Always discuss beforehand as part of your order whether the music will be royalty-free for any use, including commercial and without any obligations or credits. Keep in constant communication when revisions are due and give your feedback in a timely and clear manner.

• Why should I contact the freelance seller before ordering custom beats?

  Like with any other type of freelance service, it’s always best to contact the beatmaker in advance to agree on the details and to make sure that he/she is available to deliver according to your deadline and needs. You can use the zoom functionality on Fiverr to arrange a call before you commit as this will allow you to get a feeling of whether you like the freelancer’s vibe and if you can actually work together.
