so, i make a remix and add my own sounds, i upload and suddenly TWISTED records owns my entire production, including the sounds I made?
could this be clarified, so that everyone understands this correctly?
iam affraid ur right tho i dont know jack shit about those legal texts, but my opinion: dont remix this shizzle ....
I know... but can't understand a certain "sound" can become property of someone.... 90% of today's music uses the same sounds all over again. If u for example create a kick ass lead, and send it in your mix, you still can use this lead (or maybe a little modified) in another track. Even if the mix has become property of someone else. Doesn't make much sense to me. I think if u take a sample from a copyrighted song, and put it just like that in a song of yours, they CAN demand some explanation of how u created that sound. That's what i think anyway. They just cover themselves in (who wouldn't?) so the samples they own-and let us use for remixing- wouldn' be spread around.
I don't do remixes if they start asking money for it (even with the dollar so low!!) If they want our creativity on their songs they should offer it for free. btw, go no time this summer...
i think that s a good way to filter out those who don t take it serious.

says the guy standing next to regi? :)
no, seriously. i think everyone taking the time to sit behind their computer for several hours straight to rework you music should be taken seriously... a couple of dollars won't do the trick.
