The sid stealing continues! ...

... and this times it's not Timberland, but Frankmusik:

Jeff/ViruZ identified at 2:20 that it's his "caste camelot.sid" playing right there in the new release "3 Little Words"!

I'm really ashamed of my people! :/

Hmm. If I was you I'd get a laywer and take the fuckers to court.

As for the vinyl release, I doubt that hobby labels like jahtari make much if any real profit. A friend of mine is signed to a major indie label and he has to sell a shed load of discs before he sees a penny.

However, that remix of YOUR tune sounds like it has sold well as a download, and the fact it has been used in a facebook game without your permission makes me think that that you should be owed at least something.

Good luck with whatever you choose to do mate.

How about this one:

Jingle (A Musical Interlewd) by George Michael.

This sounds like Wizball!!

Nope, but I am a member of PRS. Same as stim but in england. Unfortunately the song is registred twice in PRS system and one of the registrations is not on me. I have tried to delete the faulty registration with no success.

PRS homepage is a bit tricky to deal with.

Sounds as if this 8Bit Retro Music scene is a bunch of lousy wankers.

The part starting around 3:00 sounds quite a lot like Delta. Or maybe it's just my imagination.

A bit similar yes. But of course, Delta is stolen from Philip Glass anyway :)

Rough: Agreed. The "8Bit Retro Music scene" are a bunch of lousy wankers alright. I would say what I really feel about the situation but it would contain way too much foul language ;)

I'll try and keep it clean.. There are many of these 'retro-lamers' out there ripping off the scenes (amiga/c64/consoles), due to either ignorance or just greed, they think it's ok to rip sceners off because they think it's public domain. I know of a couple of "musicians" (yeah right..) here in Australia who constantly steal from the c64/Amiga and consoles because they truly believe their fans/audience will never know where they stole their samples from.
I've successfully had a couple of their videos pulled off of youtube after alerting google to copyright infringements and due to that, I've made these so-called "musicians" extremely mad as they spent loads of money making them. Hahaha! These retro-lamers really need to lift their game and start writing original works unless they want to be sued, shamed and discredited as the frauds that they really are.

@ jailbird.
I am not convinced that they will hit a big one with this track. But kudos to the composer as his take on the melody resembles the original koyanisqaatsi by Philip Glass a lot more than rob hubbards version in Delta. :)

@adam.
I strongly protest against all foul language! ;)
But in a sense i agree. I would like to see people crying wolf in this thread to do their homework a little better...
