HEG works primarily with artists who have retail-ready CDs; i.e., those that have been released to the public for sale. Also, it is important that the artist (or the artist’s manager) be able to clear the use of both the copyright (publishing) and the master rights (recording) – therefore, we are unable to work with those that have signed widespread deals with the major publishing companies and many of the major record companies. Recordings containing samples (even if they have been cleared) cannot be used by HEG, so please prepare "clean" (sample-free) versions.
