We randomly split up artists and beats into pools to give everyone a new audience, and a new set of beats every day. The more producers using the platform, the more diverse the artist pools become.
Every day, artists will get a new pool of beats to listen to, vote for, and give feedback on. All of this is displayed anonymously to let the beat speak for itself, without worrying about branding, marketing, or competing for social attention.
We don’t care what platform you use, whether it’s BeatStars, Airbit, Soundclick, YouTube, or your own website. Link to your beat shop of choice without needing to set up a new store or upload your beats again.
Rewards are given to those who contribute to the platform and the community as a whole. We want you to use Beat Genius to make the industry better!
When your beat hits the top of the ranks, you get a badge for your socials and stores. We also give your beat a featured spot the following day across more user pools!
The more you use the platform the more credits you get which can be cashed in for... you guessed it... BEATS! (Don't worry producers, we still pay you what it's worth)
We figured out “let the art speak for itself.” We developed TREND, an algorithm that splits artists and beats into daily, fixed-sized, randomized pools. TREND stands for Theoretical Reach through Equalized Network Distribution.
Through this algorithm, we can find the true trends by cutting through the noise of the established names and brands. Every day, each artist pool will have an average engagement level, listener type, and be assigned a beat pool.
Every day, each beat pool will have random beat styles by random producers and beat makers, fully anonymized with no identifying information. We don’t even tell you what day your beat is going to be featured because that gives an advantage to those who have a following already. This guarantees everyone will have an equal shot.
Yes, and you will get the same shot as anyone even if they choose to be a pro member.
Because of the algorithm, everyone on earth could submit a beat every month and have an equal audience. This is critical considering beat making is the most densely populated, oversaturated market out of any art form on earth.
Artists earn credits by engaging with the platform, which can be redeemed for beats. We are constantly brainstorming new perks and features to enhance the experience for artists. If you have any suggestions, we'd love to hear from you!
Producers earn credits by engaging with the platform, which can be redeemed for featured spots. When your beat gets the most votes in your beat pool, you get a spot the next day across more beat pools and you will get a badge for your socials and stores. Featured spots do not take anything away from other producers, so your beat will never get buried.
Every day, we create a new pool of beats that are randomly selected from our database. Producers can submit their beats once a month, and when their beat is selected for a daily pool, they will be notified. After the day of the beat run is over, producers can check their play stats to see how their beat performed (they will likely get some traffic to their stores/websites too).
For artists, they receive a fresh pool of beats every day. These beats are completely anonymized with no identifying information, album artwork, or producer names shown. They can listen to these beats, upvote the ones they like to gain access to the producer's store to see more of their work. Both producers and artists earn rewards for listening, giving feedback, and upvoting beats. The anonymity ensures that the focus is solely on the quality of the music.
As a rapper/producer myself, I was selling beats in my city for thousands of dollars, but when I took my beats to online marketplaces like BeatStars and Airbit, I hit three big hurdles:
All of which works really well for the owners of the platforms but NOT for the beat makers.
I wanted to create Beat Genius to incentivize working on your craft of beat making, instead of your marketing skills, and to actually let the music speak for itself. And allow one centralized place for artists/rappers to find beats!
