and i don't think it's a coincidence that this track is being released on a label that you sent a demo too. that's bull. what a clown. all of this he changed a note so it's his own crap is ridiculous in this thread. stop trying to cover for leon when he clearly ripped this dude off. even if it's something that this guy can't win for...you guys are all dicks for encouraging this sorta stuff among producers. if any of your tunes magically showed up like this, especially on a label that turned you down for a release, you'd all be on here pissing and moaning about it too...
good luck to you paul. |
He sent it to SEVERAL LABELS!!
If I make a demo track, send it to 10 labels, chances are that ONE release from just one of those labels within the next 12 months will have ONE sound only in a track that kinda sounds like one from my demo with a similar feeling, ish. SHOCK HORROR!... not.
There is no conspiracy here. Go ahead and waste the money on a lawyer he will point out the blidingly obivous, they're nowhere near close enough. I hear closer similarities between tracks every day, and those people don't sue. why? because this is what happens when there's only 12 different notes in a scale to play with, sometimes they sound similar.
Really this has made me mad, for this guy to spam this many forums with this rubbish and have people actually believing it!.
Of course stealing is wrong, but stealing music is as bad as those who lie about something being stolen when it isn't, possibly tarnishing the good name of a producer who is honest and works hard in their career to get to where they are.
It's easy to assume that the 'little guy' is always right, in this case, he isn't. |

well i'm not gonna look down at the guy for starting a thread because i'm sure if he'd had contacted you directly it woulda been the same response and brushed off. is it professional? not really, but doesn't seem like there are very many professional people in trance music these days to begin with as we've had a lot of similar threads by a lot of professional producers/djs to the same effect on here. the biggest issue here is this guy thinks you ripped him off. i'm no copyright expert...i'm just saying if he feels like he got cheated some way...then he should look into it and not let a bunch of producers that are your friends convince him not to.
could just be a terrible coincidence who knows...not for me to say. but i can understand his frustration. they do sound pretty similar. if that's just because of the patch bank or whatever...who knows. |

Yeah, handle these things civilialized people. I understand if original poster is new to music business and feel that he is ripped off, you want to shout all it out. But this clearly looks now there were no truth behind the story. You should have emailed label and original artist first. Now only thing you did, was damage to your own name and UNNECESSARY damage to Leons.
Take a lesson. |
