Question
Recycler
I have a special case question on reposting CDLC that I didn't author.
The general rule is: don't (makes sense) with one exception for old CDLC that was never posted in the new format...otherwise it might be lost forever (and, of course, you must give credit to original author).
Here's a possible second exception - I want to know if this would be allowed.
I recently downloaded SlaughterMasta's version of The Beatles song Birthday (I'll use this song as an example).
I haven't changed the charting AT ALL, the only real change I've made is I replaced the song audio with a version that doesn't include the guitar (derived from multitracks).
Can I post this new version with all credit going to SlaughterMasta?
If so, I was thinking I do these three things to make sure credit goes where it belongs.
1- On this site I'd name the song to indicate this, like:
Birthday (Multitracks re:SlaughterMasta)
2- I'd highlight in my description the CDLC was done by SlaughterMasta and include a link to the original, something like this:
Credit to SlaughterMasta for the original CDLC.
This is v1 from SlaughterMasta recycled into the following versions - none of the charting was changed (just the audio).
Birthday (No Guitar)
- original CDLC with audio missing the guitar (from multitracks)
Birthday (No Bass)
- original CDLC with audio missing the bass (from mlutitrakcs).
...
3- I'd add a comment to the original CDLC saying the new version is posted and adding a link to it.
I can understand if this is not allowed, but it would be a shame since there may be others who'd like to play a multitrack version (so you hear what you really sound like :) ).
An alternate approach is that I just contact the original poster - ok - but in cases where they're not active anymore...it means those songs could never be done.
Let me know what you think.
I could understand a condition of this being the charting not be changed.
R.
