Do you have to have permision from the label or producer to do any of the above?, even if its for personel plesure and only you will hear it. Can you stream your own version on the internet or play it live at a party or whatever without making money on it? Can someone clear the legal issues up on this please, thanks in advance

Basically, yes, you need a permission, even if it's for fun, no money involved etc.

However, not many labels (in the trance scene anyway) really care until you try to make money with it.

Yes, it is. Like I said, most labels don't really care unless you're making money for it. If some artist records some other artists song to, say, an album he's going to need a permission for it.
