Hey Ben, can you send me XXX track/album/stem please?

No. You wouldn’t go up to the counter at McDonald’s and ask the staff to cook you a Big Mac for free, right?

Can I use XXX song for my project?

Of course! Ben appreciates you celebrating his work in all forms! A few things to note:

Please make sure you credit Bentley and the song, ideally with a link/links to his channels including this site.

Most of Bentley’s works are registered with global databases, which means your content might be flagged so that Bentley can receive royalties for his work. Most of the time this isn’t an issue and you can ignore the notification. If you encounter any problems – particularly with copyright strikes – feel free to contact us.

Commercial projects WILL require a license – please contact us providing information about your project.

We do not tolerate the use of Bentley’s work in ANY damaging, discriminatory or hateful content. If this is detected we will have it removed.

Why isn’t XXX track available for streaming?

The world of music rights can be complicated and arduous at the best of times. Ben always does his best to make his work available in as many places as possible. So if a particular song isn’t on certain platforms, there’s probably a good reason for it. This is more relevant to co-writes, soundtracks and cover versions where music rights and licensing are more complicated.

Why aren’t all of Bentley’s albums available for streaming/retail?

Most of us know by now that nearly all streaming and retail platforms offer tiny payouts for artists, or take an unfairly huge commission.

Over the years we’ve learnt that many of you want to support Bentley (and other independent artists) so that they can continue making the music that you love.

For some projects, only SINGLES are available for streaming/retail. While the full album is only available exclusively here at BentleyJones.com. This is so that everyone can enjoy Bentley’s music, but those who want to support him in the BEST way possible can order the album right here on his official site.

Album purchases mean that Bentley gets paid fairly for his work, but it also means you get to the hear the music before everyone else, and you get exclusive album tracks that no-one else can access!

CAN YOU MAKE XXX VOCAL STEM AVAILABLE FOR REMIXING?

Vocal stems can be tricky due to licensing etc. If a stem isn’t available, it’s likely due to good reason. Future stems will be made available here on BentleyJones.com first. However, if you’re asking for freebies, see the above question.

WHY IS XXX ITEM SO EXPENSIVE? I can get it cheaper on XXX.

All contributions to BentleyJones.com are the BEST way to support Ben and his work. Prices are set accordingly, factoring in transaction fees. If you’re looking to support Ben then you’re in the right place. If you’re looking for the cheapest deal for Ben’s music then you’re better off elsewhere.

HOW DO I DOWNLOAD?

Once you have purchased your download and the payment has been successfully processed you will be sent a download URL for your product(s). This link is generated specifically for you so no two customers receive the same link.

MY LINK HAS EXPIRED, WHAT SHOULD I DO?

Head to the Your Downloads page, enter the email address you used to make your order and a fresh link will be emailed to you.

ARE THERE ANY LIMITATIONS?

Unique URLs are available for 48 (Forty Eight) hours upon successful process of your payment. They are also only available for 5 (Five) download attempts. After either one of these conditions, the link will expire and you will no longer have access to your downloads. These restrictions are in place to help maintain the security of our customers and their orders.

DOWNLOADS USING A MOBILE DEVICE?

We do NOT recommend using Apple devices to download our products.

Apple devices cannot handle direct media downloads as they require software or apps (such as iTunes/Apple Music) to add items to their media library.

Other types of devices (such as Android) should have no problems with direct downloads.

CAN I USE A DOWNLOAD MANAGER APP / CAN I RESUME MY DOWNLOAD?

No, it is highly recommended you DO NOT use a Download Manager app or use the “Resume Download” function.

Because Download Manager applications (and likewise, when you resume a download) you are contacting the BentleyJones.com/Shop server multiple times. Each time a connection is made the server will recognise it as an attempt to download your file(s). Once 5 connections have been made the link will expire and you will no longer have access to your downloads.

The best way to download your file(s) is to use your standard internet browser, such as Chrome, Edge, Safari, Firefox etc. and to complete your download in one use.

WHAT IS PAYPAL?

PayPal is the fastest and most secure way to make online payments. You can use PayPal even if you don’t have a PayPal account (see below), however signing up for a PayPal account is completely free.

I’m impatient. Why are you guys so slow with your emails?

Bentley is an independent artist with a small but dedicated team. We have a hard time keeping up with all the crazy things the ginger blur is always up to. Rest assured one of us will respond to your message as soon as we can.

Why is shipping so expensive?

We are based in the United Kingdom and so our shipping rates are calculated by Royal Mail. Unfortunately this is completely beyond our control. However, we do our best to offer you the best value possible including shipping discounts on larger orders.
