@@TopMusicAttorney I use Bandlab occasionally. Lately it's been taken over by scam bots though.

[@fyahkoal]

@@TopMusicAttorney can you please cover next songtrad please

[@Jermaine_sounds]

SoundCloud has a distro i would love for you to go over them with us as well!

[@gigaha]

I would love a review of Too Lost’s distribution contract. I’ve heard multiple people saying their offerings are “too good to be true.” Also: BandLab’s AI mastering works well for me-better than LANDR-though I think it is highly dependent on the type of music you make.

Great review, and thank you! I have been a Bandlab member for about four years and I have no real complaints with the platform. IMO the purpose of the site is to share music with fellow musicians. You can become a “star “within the community, but it is unlikely that you will profit financially. One interesting aspect of the site is that you can collaborate with other members - and some people even “fork “their tracks so that any and all members can add or remix the music to their liking and then release it. The copyright implications of this kind of scare me, and I do not participate in this option. Lastly, I have recently read that cover versions of popular songs are being stricken/deleted due to copyright violation. This is no doubt due to the industry lawsuits that you mention regarding copyright litigation. It is not an issue for me because I create original music, but many singers who create tracks using canned back up music are very upset to see their entire catalog disappearing. Perhaps being out of Singapore as well as the fact that the site is barely monetized gave BandLab a pass. But that party is over.

I work with Bandlab as well they are up front on promo charges. I learned labels hide that until you get a bill for 100$ pure water......

[@Jos3M08]

Thank y’all for working so hard to get us This info, this is amazing! Wow , thank you!!!

[@rogerswift777magicianmusic6]

So on Part 2 ( 24:34 time stamp ) Their licensed beats are for a 10 year term. So do we renew it for another 10 or after the first term is up? And if we don’t find a way to renew. Do we then have a responsibility to pull all public works due to the beat license being expired? Yet they can continue to use the work while our main service is active, makes me think that dealing with an individual producer buying an exclusive right would be better. Long term speaking 🤷🏻💜🎩✌🏻

TRULY GRATEFUL FOR YOUR TIME

[@julesalexander2583]

Wow! Thanks forever!

[@Jermaine_sounds]

SoundCloud has a distro i would love for you to go over them with us as well!

[@3L3V3NDRUMS]

Awesome video! Thanks for doing this🤘🤘🤘

[@edexter97]

I am looking through software and was sorta wondering if something like auto tune slice would help the vocals match the beat better. Beyond my budget at the moment and there could be better or worse options out there.

[@EveryDayLifeChannel9777]

They have A.I. mastering, I don't use anymore.

[@PhillipsConsultants]

BandLab have Five releases of our tracks, in other people names! 😱not licensed from us or UMusic so hopefully and unfortunately, we may only receive our artists royalty percentage.. even though the tracks are 40 years old. Considering of buying our debt off to gain full percentage, before UM sue for £500m and we get nothing?

[@PhillipsConsultants]

And Yes BandLab UMusic has been informed!!

[@PhillipsConsultants]

Worth looking at Traxsource and Beatport, two of the biggest platforms used by DJs to Purchase music.. many unlicensed remixes and or renamed versions 👀

[@MariHSMHproductions]

I hope the terms of service are meant for the paying subscribed service and not the free subscription service cause that would be crazy for them to have terms saying they own music that i created off the platform i only produced a few songs using their beat samples back around 2022 , but i been using their platform since late 2016 2017 era up til now to upload my own .

[@MilesGotBeats]

Nice video 😌

[@tenlittleindians]

It must be a generation gap thing because I read the contract and feel it's terrible! (I'm 66) I seen a video of a KZbinr using it to lay down a track and then play over it. Looked like a fun toy so I downloaded it. I would never agree to their license and soon learned nothing would load after the license screen unless you agree to their entire contract. I then deleted their crappy phone app.👎

[@fakshen1973]

In order to ensure a 3rd party's intellectual property doesn't end up wrongfully on a platform, wouldn't AI have to be trained on that 3rd party's intellectual property?

[@stevewoodyt]

2:18 what is that edit??? What did you actually say. Almost like the editor wanted you to say something that you didn’t say. That was weird

[@773olo2]

Landr mastering is great but BandLab is good too

[@GoodBaleadaMusic]

Bandlab is awesome for people no technical abilities. I credit them both in my publishing. It's a rapper dream. And it's abilities vs. pro abilities are only relative to 2024. People from ten years ago think you have no perspective of what people could not do ten years ago. Just like 30 years ago none of you could do what you do without an army of musicians. Hey whats up with all the homeless these days? AI strikes again! (In 1997)

[@JohnCrawford1979]

Band Lab encourages collaboration, so maybe that's what they're trying to say in the sub-license to other members, that you're ok with collaborations. That's what I can think of, but I can't say for sure.

[@HeartThrobFAE]

If/when I am unclear about my creativity on an AI site First I limit/stop use to find a better option. Second I will use what I can (if I like anything) under fair use rules.

[@7.Yessir]

Hello can you do a video about Drake's latest lawsuit against his label for Payola. This is breaking news and is trending fast. We need a Top Music Attorney breakdown

[@7.Yessir]

[Drake] 21k in one day. You're the best!

[@QUAN.BALDWIN]

SO IF U MAKE A BEAT ON BANDLAB THEY CAN MAKE MONEY OFF THE BEAT U MADE AND U CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT LIKE THEY CAN SALE OR REMAKE UR BEAT FOR KZbin CONTENT USERS
