I have screenshots of the charts if you like im not lying. the syan remix was better then mine i think but, and i stress there was 2 days where my track was in top 10 on djdownload and above some big names in the scene. I know it was played on london radio rise one 98.3fm because i have the recording of the dj playing it. I know it was playlisted at some big club in oz because i found it online. Also the label have re-released it in april this year it stayed in top 100 for about a week came back then went again so it must ahve sold some. it was number 1 on beatsdigital for ages my mix as well.

Im glad you all accept the web sites etc now down to brass tacks.

So what next what shall I do?

p.s at one point 3 of the 4 remixes were in top 100 so i know it did ok

Processing a highly structured and complex pattern of sensory input as a unified percept of "music" is probably one of the most elaborate features of the human brain.....understanding how music is perceived and how it may elicit intense sensations is far from being understood.

Surely you can understand that. You shouldn't take it personally that you weren't believed. Next time, give more details (links, label names, ect), and you will be taken more seriously. If a label doesn't pay out, I'd sure like to know what one it is so I can avoid.



I understand i am slowly learning the ways of trance addict!

And thanks for the welcome I cant wait to learn some new stuff!!!!

Was it YOUR mix that was on all the charts and radio, or the remixes? I'm asking, not to be an ass, but because as I mentioned before, the remixes of your tracks are not treated the same as your original. On the site you posted, it was a remix, not yours, that was topping the sales, and that leads me to believe that it may have been the remixes blowing the charts up. If that's the case, it doesn't necessarily entitle you to anything, or much - that depends on how the contract was written. If there was no contract, just a general agreement on email, it's left to interpretation, which is a whole different matter... one that likely requires more investment than you'd get back.

I'm sorry to hear about this though... it really is a shame that your track could have legitimately been exploited and you receive next to nothing. BS, in principle.

What is the language of the agreement you have with them? It's really difficult for anyone to tell you whether you may be owed, and as a result the course of action, without knowing what you signed up for.

Is someone complaining about not making money off of music? ha!

How do you think top artists feel who do nothing but make music all day all year and know millions of people are ripping their shit off limewire/bearshare/piratebay?

I understand why you're mad but it can always be much worse.

That's entirely different. That is the result of consumers ripping off an artist and avoiding buying (hence, sales). This is allegedly the case of a label ripping off an artist based on the actual sales. Apples and oranges.
