How to Choose the Right Backing Track for Your Song

How to Choose the Right Backing Track for Your Song

Writing a new song? Whether you’re a singer, rapper, or songwriter, choosing the right backing track can make or break your final result. Here’s how to find the perfect one for your voice and style.

1. Know Your Style and Mood

Decide whether you need a pop, trap, acoustic, or orchestral vibe. The emotion and energy of the instrumental must match your lyrics.

2. Consider the Key and Tempo

Choose a track that suits your vocal range and rhythmic comfort zone. If you’re unsure, Kroton Music can customize the key and structure for you.

3. Check the License

Make sure you’re allowed to publish and monetize your song. Our START, GOLD, and UNLIMITED licenses cover everything from social media to Spotify.

4. Look for Tracks with Stems

If you plan to mix or remix the song later, getting the stems (individual instrument tracks) gives you full control. Our UNLIMITED license includes stems for free.

5. Preview the Full Track Before Buying

Always listen to the full instrumental before purchasing. On KrotonMusic.com, every track can be streamed in full to avoid surprises.
