It seems another German music company has started to engage in making false copyright claims to shutdown my musical expression.

I have just had my latest DJ mix taken down by WMG lying and putting in a copyright claim for 90 seconds of video against a nearly 2 hour DJ mix video.


I have put in a dispute, but I won't hold my breath as it seems YouTube give the person making false copyright claims the power to deny them, making the claimant, judge, jury and executioner.


So if this BS copyright claim isn't removed and my video reinstated, I won't be uploading another YouTube video ever again.


It took me hours to find and download all the free videos I used and piece them all together in Adobe.

Yes, I went out of my way to search for and download ONLY royalty free psychedelic videos to use in my production.


Let alone the time it took to design my set, record it as well as master it.


Without even taking into account the money it cost not just in equipment used and electricity to power them, but I also bought every tune I played back in the day from Beatport!


I'm not wasting hours and hours of my time as well as my money on a platform that treats its users in this disgusting manner in favour of liars and bullshit copyright claims.


I'm not even monetising my video and fully expected the artists who's music I played to get any streaming royalties if I did.


That is how it should work, that is how DJ sets work, but to allow scumbags to make bogus, false copyright claims for a 90 second video clip in a 01:48:49 video that instantly block people's videos without any due diligence checks, well screw you YouTube, no dice!


So what is Schlager HIt Mix 2.5. - Schlager für Alle and who the hell are WMG other than lying bastards!

Why are they allowed to remove the work from the autism community with blatantly fake claims of a copyright breach?

And why does it seem to be German companies who are actively engaged in attacking and discriminating against those on the Autsim spectrum?
