Remergence Electronica Duo

A good friend of Remergence, Pixieguts, has recently written an article on the way that some website are harvesting download links from the mass of websites that have artists tracks available for free, they are pulling music from Last.fm, ning and many more.

Not only this but they are also selling the tracks as ringtones, this is an absolute disgrace to us artists and even some of our tracks have been pilfered from the site that we have given permission to to have free downloads, so as with many artists we have now started removing a lot of the free downloadable tracks and making them streamable only.

Don’t get us wrong, we don’t mind out fans getting tracks for free, it’s the blatent disregard of these sites selling our tracks as ringtones and then not giving us a penny for them!

So sadly we are removing all free downloads, except for those at ReverbNation and BandCamp where they are a bit more secure.

Please Read the article by PixieGuts which inspired me to write this post.
