Re: Some cunt stole my tune
the fact that he keeps making out that HE'S the victim is infuriating! what a grade A cunt.
Re: Some cunt stole my tune
good video, shows it is the same track.
i wonder how common this is? with there being lots of small localish or region-wide scenes it would be easy to just take tracks from say, south american artists and pass them off as your own in europe. i suppose that's what he done here, thinking it would unlikely that Willem would discover his track.
it would be a good investigative story for someone on RA, just like last year there was a rash of stories about buying fake likes and fake followers. it would be a difficult story to put together though, people would be unlikely to want to share there lies.

Re: Some cunt stole my tune
Just wanna say I thought you did a good job with the video, I hope it gains some publicity (and maybe some for yourself as well)
Send it in to RA or something

He's taken this comment down now as well from his facebook.Lost to the Void wrote:He`s saying "It`s time to go legal"
Is he going to sue himself for being an idiot?
If he posts anything, please take screenshots, send them to me or post em in this thread.
I might not be online for a few days, busy with work, and flying to Spain this weekend, will definitely be back towards the end of next week.

good to know, thx !winston wrote:if you used a melody that someone else created in a sound someone else created (if i'm reading it right) then it's not really yours. things might have changed since i studied it, but as far as i was aware it is the melody that is the copyrighted material, unless something is a sample being sampled. taking a royalty free melody and processing it and someone else processing it similarly isn't really theft.Hades wrote:that's kind of how I felt when I thought about that pad/texture part in the track I posted above,willemb wrote: but if i was to do it now id just look like some looney conspiracy theorist
especially since the melody was already programmed into the patch.
legally speaking I could have tried to sue the guy (unless someone else used this patch before in some track, in which case that person could legally sue me),
but I felt like it would only make me look bad,
being the unknown techno/ambient producer that I am...
so what's the point, really ?
but of course, in my case it was only a part of a track, which is rather different from stealing a whole track.
by the time I read this topic the ripped version of your track was already gone Willem, so I couldn't compare to hear how bad it was.
there is a Slam track 'Azure' which has a main riff made from one of the arpeggiator presets on one of the Arturia classic synths (i forget which one). someone else also used that exact riff and sound in a house track several month later.
using the same thing as someone else is different from stealing or copying someones work.
then I can't be accused of anything either if someone used that sound before me.
it's a good thing I name my clips after the instruments and FX I used though,
cause that way I was able to find the clip back 1,5 years after I made the soundscape and was able to find back which synth and patch I used.
since I play piano, I almost always play in my melodies myself, and almost never use preprogrammed melodies or arpeggiators (unless I made the arpeggiator pattern myself).
so I would have thought that the clip really did contain my melody (as most other parts in that soundscape did) if I wouldn't have been able to find back which synth I used.
but Metaphysikal is just a drone synth, so you can't even "play" the sounds in any normal way with a keyboard, you just go with whatever it's reproducing and start tweaking away or run it through FX...
I've got an Xpander here that's always going crazy, and if I don't start the reboot procedure while starting up, it will start playing a sound automatically.
At times I just love to use whatever it's producing and start from there.

I'll echo that, great video willem
so basically, you found out this guy stole your track because you watched the SC stats ?
I always wondered how you discovered it, I mean it's a needle in a haystack, right ?
which is probably why there are people doing this and hoping they'll get away with it...

I would just like to say I would seriously hate to be Mark right now haha
This will no doubt hurt any type of music career he was hoping for. He could've easily just apologised and took it down accepting it was a shitty move..but nope

Re: Some cunt stole my tune
Wow I missed the party but it seems it'll be going on for a while longer.
What an idiot to rip the track and go on like that. Crazy people.

Re: Some cunt stole my tune
I've just seen your video Willemb. Nice work ! Do you think he had a look at it ?
Re: Some cunt stole my tune
I am sure he has, the link to this thread momentarily appeared on his facebook early on in this whole saga.
I am pretty tired of the whole thing now though. Unless something drastic happens to change my mind, I am done with this.
