OK here's the deal.

almost 2 years ago I worked on a track with this guy. Without breaking it down to numbers the work was mostly me. My studio, my engineering, MY time for the most part (I think he spent 2 maybe 3 days at my pad?)

so...every time he left, I would go back in and tighten shit up...cuz this guy wanted to put every single idea he ever had into ONE track...

eventually I said LOOK this is DONE for now, but I dont want it public.

he wanted otherwise but I said NO. Its not ready, my style isnt ready, the mix aint right blah blah blah

well, it turns out he went and got it released. Financed on his own (someone else apparently paid for it) and it has sold close to 500 copies(? not sure on the exact number)

I just got an email from a friend who pointed out that Release in Canada has it...which means it has gotten around, you know?

thing is..the guy changed the title, and my name is NOT on it AT ALL

he ing calls me "nflux" in the promo he sent out, says I've worked with Uberzone, etc...which is just wack.

I dont know what to do. Im not worried about money but the thought of someone slighting me in this way just makes me want to revert back to the old days where my fists were my means of communication

WHAT DO I DO? please help me before I just kick this dudes ass!!! I cant tell if he's truly a swindler or just not aware of what he is doing!!!!!

Ya know, I gotta say, maybe I'm gettin' old (well actually, of course I'm gettin' old...), but I have been having a really good time just working in the studio the last few months, no live gigs at all since February... It's an opportunity to do things I could never do live... I may even end up dropping the whole gig thing and just be a studio ho...

Just thinkin' out loud...

Don't do it MindSpawn!!! You'll get lazy and fat and end up eating lotsa pizza and sampling late night theatre and writing John Tesh tunes and playing them for your girlfriend while she sleeps at 3 in the morning. i've seen it, it's ugly!!!

We need more FLEM's...

welcome to the world of dance music where everyone tries to feed their egos and wallets at others expense.

influx the underground is just as corrupt as the commercial crap.

you can see how hard it is to break 'into the scene' when you have great tracks. the reason for this is everyone clammoring over each other to try and enrich themselves, regardless the cost.

you should give all the samples out to the world wide web, dancetechers, etc

then it will look like he made his track off free samples on the web :-)

then you just deny all knowledge of it ha ha
