silverbull Posted December 13 Report Share Posted December 13 Heres a topic made from my friends midnight society and rick corbo:Title: Thief Alert!! Reyes & Corbo vs. Oldenkamp??!?Hello guys and gals…It’s the Christmas season again! A time for holiday cheer and the spirit of giving… but in this case it seems as if being generous has completely bitten us in the rears. Just a day or so ago, one of my colleagues happened to find out that a MP3 copy of our unreleased material has been leaked to P2P download sites (nothing new I guess). But what’s worse, there’s a person online who is trying to lay claim to the work.The original track is called “We Started Dancing”, an upcoming Midnight Society single that was originally created by Erik Reyes & longtime friend Rick Corbo featuring vocals by Barbara L. Good, the woman who did the voiceovers for our remix to “Release Me” by Industry earlier this year. However, there is a person going by the name of DJ Oldenkamp that has decided to steal the track, rename it as one of his (or her) own under the alias “DJ Oldenkamp feat. Barbara L” and pass it around the internet as if they created it. Not only have this individual illegally downloaded the song, this individual is now going to the level of plagiarism by claiming that he (or she) created it. We didn‘t expect this record to be leaked on the internet in the first place, but what’s done is done and we can’t fix that. However, to blatantly plagiarize other people’s work and claim it for their own is definitely the lowest of the low.We are making this statement to let everyone know that this person who going under the name DJ Oldenkamp is a thief with an obvious lack of talent, who finds it necessary to not only steal music but to claim that he (or she) actually did the hard work of producing the music that he (or she) steals and then passes it around as if is their own. This is an official warning to any DJ, record label or ANYONE who decides to advertise or chart this record for we will go after this person and any DJ or record label that tries to chart, produce and/or promote this single. We hope that people heed to this warning and stay clear of this supposed producer and this track.Does this mean that Midnight Society is going to stop making music? Of course not… we will continue to make the music we love. However, with this alarming news along with the recent leak of the singles "How Do I Look" and "Star 2004", it does mean that we’re going to rethink how we promote and distribute our music to the world and how we will continue to do our business. We all know that the dance music industry is a shady one… however, if everyone would just think for a second we could save it. Do what you have to do in order to survive, but support all those you base your careers from. Without the producers making the music, there wouldn’t be a record for a DJ to exploit. We both need each other equally so think about that the next time you’re on a P2P site downloading music that you have no intention on paying for. For one day, the downloads might cease because there won’t be anymore music for them to leech onto… and then where will we be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luztidara Posted December 14 Report Share Posted December 14 Though he looks like he has too many rim shots I think anyone these days can rename a file and it's info too. If someone is an idiot and renames the file incorrectly that doesn't mean it is malicious. Don't condemn this freakazoid till you got the truth but for now just rip him up cause of that fcuking goo shooter face he got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lawgirl Posted December 14 Report Share Posted December 14 When the truth need to be told - this Oldenkamp person cannot verify his true work as all the original parts of the track are in the possession of Reyes and Corbo. Midnight Society and Rick Corbo work hard on their production. Such takes time, patience and talent. This person Oldenkamp is a fake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
