RE: CALL for MUSIC and EVENT REVIEWS - Lets Create a Holistic Music Community!
This sound super! I think I came across one of your blogs and as far as I remember, it was well written. I've added you to my list of music writers and reviewers :) And will check you blog later this week.
Wrt, uploading music to the Steem blockchain; Just make sure whatever you upload to DTube or Dsound you own the rights of and it is made clear (I wrote an article about this the other day: https://steemit.com/curation/@edje/qualifying-for-high-value-votes-how-to-provide-evidence-you-are-you-and-your-music-is-yours
Thank you, much appreciated.
As far as the uploads go (dsound and dtube), that stuff is all original content, the review posts all have Soundcloud embeds and I make it clear in the post that this is music that has been curated, not my own work.
For now dsound stuff is DJ sets I do, but given that it is original work and all music featured in it is available for free download (and the tracklists are transparent), I hope that covers the rights attribution.
I remember that article and loved your explanation and all the conversations surrounding the topic in the comments.
Thanks again, look forward to being part of the music crew here on Steemit in whatever growing capacity :)
Super! I think your way of handling the blockchain is how it should be, no breaking of copyright laws, although some may debate the fact that embedding Soundcloud or YouTube in a new publication and earn money with it, may infringe copyright laws, but I personally debate such law, since one can argue that this is not more than providing a link (whether it is in fact a link or embedded code) and when using it for some new work, a self written article, maybe with more links and images added to it, the work becomes a complete new work and the value is not in the link provided, but the publication as a whole. I do very much the same as you do: I embed the code for Soundcloud or YouTube in a Steemit post, and provide a link to the source under the embedded code window, or in a separate note at the bottom of the post.
