It's already there, that's why you remember my naaaaaaaaaaame
i'm pretty sure that strict ghost writing is quasi illegal even if it is work for hire in that there is something called natural copyright laws of which one of them is to have your name associated with anything you create. I'm pretty sure that supersedes any NDA. YOu just can't talk about the project but you can say you were involved. It might be called something else as google is not turning up anything for natural but I remember it during my law class. Or maybe i'm thinking about reckless sexual assault with a senior citizen. The class was pretty thick in information and I was drawing pictures of cats for the most part.

I want to see the cats.
I've just read something similar over at Gearslutz, somthing to avoid people getting ripped off etc.
As long as I know what the score is, how much and when i'm cool however it works.
but you have to remember what can be copyrighted. If you make an arrangement, that can't be copyrighted so those natural laws I mentioned don't apply and you have no claim on the outcome even if it technically was a creation. I've read a few articles discussing the creative content of an actual engineer mix but again , I don't think any court as made any landslide precedent so we are still stuck with melody and lyrics. So just throw in a lyric of your choosing and your set. Something EDM like *^$#% the dj or something just as original.
IF you can't use it as a reference and it doesn't advance your career in some measurable way, it really isn't worth your time unless you are getting some significant money. But since most people in EDM are crooks , chances are you won't get paid and you might cry late at night.

More great info. Ta.
I've found over the last 20 years there are crooks in most businesses so I can only protenct myself to the best of my ability I guess.
Still, if it does happen, it'll only be the once from that particular person.
Nice cat btw, even if some of her nipples have fallen off.
