Short article about music copyrights

Post by jaywilliams » Sat Mar 30, 2019 11:31 am

Hi guys, spotted this today.

Good concise overview of copyrights as they relate to music production.

Worth a read in my opinion (especially for us newbies!).

There's so much to this business to keep track of!

I'm so glad I went to Rally bc even though I didn't absorb but a small fraction of the information available, some of those small fractions were helpful.

For example, there was a session run by 2 label owners who clearly weren't stressing the details - they register copyrights for their songs in batches (after they've been released), and as near as I could tell they pretty much don't bother with meta-data at all.

Not sure if that's the "right way" or the "wrong way" to do it, but these guys are clearly successful at what they are doing, so I figure if that's good enough for them it's good enough for me.

Your mileage may vary, of course.
