BEATS FOR SALE - Big Update! (around 50 new beats on my SoundClick pages)
Lot of time has passed since my last beats update, but its finally there.
With new beats I come with new prices, which are way lower (at least till end of this year), so its a great opportunity to get some fresh bangers from Amos now!
* For my best beats (subjective opinion), check out the SoundClick page below. Price for each beat is $200 (but only till end of 2010) and no future negotiations are possible coz normally I sell them for $300.

* For various quality and various price beats, check out the SoundClick page below. Price vary from $50 to $200, but price negotiations are possible + 25% discount for every single beat on that page till end of this year!

Of course for the price you get exclusive rights!
PS: I also offer high quality mixing and mastering services for really low price: $30 per song! Ask me for details if you are interested.
