    Reh, one of these had the absolute riiiight aesthetics to get my vote, but I felt they delivered it bad. Like a nice cake that's been mashed to pieces. I'ma look for you tho.

    This is the thing - all things hold copyright / intellectual property - hihat pattern - arrangement - 4 to the floor The issue comes with proving you are the first to use it. Which is quite difficult with a lot of things.

    Then when you write your ish, you own the copyright of that lyrical content. The money made would be through publishing royalties. There's also "performance" royalties i believe. I'm not sure every in and out no more as it's been forced to change and stuff slightly due to the internet...

    That's fine... but if you dont, what is it exactly you think you own? You didn't create anything. You're essentially one or both of two things. - a performer - a model At which point you can still get money from sales. Or try profit from your celebrity. But you can also view it as a free loan...

    Buying your masters isn't even such a massive thing... Just re-record the track. If the label doesn't own the mix you can literally just pay a mastering studio to master it and you own the master. The only issue is if you're still under contract that they own everything you make - there are...

    I know about all that. But if they can't profit off your music and pay off your debt. Then you don't make money anyway. That's why the most important thing to have first in music is a lawyer. There's clever ways in contracts labels make you pay for things you shouldn't. But you agreed to it...

    But if they didn't have those rights, they wouldn't make money. And neither would you. Copyright was invented to protect musicians. Musicians used to get paid to play. But then people could just copy the music on those piano rolls and musician doesnt get paid. But back to your point... If...

    Yes! This is exactly my understandingof it. Wasn't aware of it's changed and how across countries. I know many want to hate it and i know in some situations it can be an obstacle, but it's also there to protect US as musicians, writers, composers etc. I know some may front on thisquestion...

    Funnily enough 2 current tracks I'm working on are RnB-ish. Would have been good. Look forward to hearing yours.

    Warzone Beat Battle - June 26-27, 2020

    @Pappas Beats your beats were 'arrrd. Especially the one against Deez. Only reason it didn't get my vote is 'cause of my slight anti-edm bias. But I was mega close to pulling the trigger 'cause I liked a certain melody in there. Actually, I may have voted for yours. I'm not sure. Just realise I...
