For Producers

Beat requests are an opportunity to connect with artists looking for specific sounds. As a producer, you can browse active requests and submit tracks from your catalog that match what requesters need.

​

Who Can Submit to Requests

To submit beats to requests, you need:

• A producer profile — You must have an artist profile on BeatPass
• Uploaded tracks — At least one track in your catalog to submit

Any user with a producer profile can submit beats to requests. Both verified and non-verified producers have the same submission capabilities.

Finding Beat Requests

​

Browsing Active Requests

Navigate to the Beat Requests section to see all currently active requests. Each request shows:

• Requester name and avatar — Who’s looking for a beat
• Description — What they’re looking for
• Specifications — Genre, BPM, key, mood (if provided)
• Reference track — A link to their sound reference
• Time remaining — How long until the request expires
• Submission count — How many producers have already submitted

​

Filtering Requests

Look for requests that match your style:

• Check the genre field for your specialty
• Review the reference track to understand the sound
• Read the description carefully for specific requirements

After You Submit

​

What Happens

1. Requester is notified — They receive a notification about your submission
2. Track appears in their submissions — They can play and review your beat
3. Request stays open — Others can still submit (requests don’t close early)
4. Requester may reach out — If they like your beat, they might message you

​

Success Messages

After a successful submission:

“Beat sent successfully! You can submit more tracks to this request if you’d like.”

​

Error Messages

If something goes wrong:

• “Beat request has expired” — The 24-hour window has closed
• “You can only send tracks that you own or collaborate on” — Track ownership issue

Best Practices

​

Choosing What to Submit

• Match the request — Don’t submit trap when they want R&B
• Check the reference — Your beat should sound similar to their example
• Consider the mood — An aggressive beat won’t work for a chill request
• Quality matters — Submit your best work, not just any track

​

Building Connections

Beat requests are about more than just submissions:

• Read requests carefully — Show you understand what they need
• Follow up — If they engage with your submission, be responsive
• Build relationships — A good match can lead to ongoing collaborations

​

Timing

• Requests expire after 24 hours — Don’t wait too long
• Early submissions get more attention — Requesters often check as submissions arrive
• Check regularly — New requests are posted throughout the day
