Class Action Lawsuit vs Foul Play Recs-copyright infringment

Post by annias » Tue Jan 12, 2010 7:27 pm

I am beginning a civil suit against the owner of this label for copyright infringement, I will not discuss the particulars out of respect for the legal process. I respectfully request that those with similar issue contact me via these means to initiate a class action lawsuit.

its kind of weird to post a thread on a global forum and say you wont discuss anything. i understand the legal ramifications, just thought it slightly ironic! good luck tho

Just trying to keep things professional, this isn't a personal matter it's legal. I will not slander or liable said label, just looking to resolve the matter in court.

In this light, the label's name is pretty ironic & funny.

Even more so though is that they have releases with titles like "Loyalty Amongst Thieves," and "We Didn't Steal This EP." :lol:

Bummed though 'cause I see now that my bro aBz is also in their roster... :(

As has just about every motherfucker making electronic music for the last couple decades. Hell, I've even heard Amens in commercials at this point - if anybody should be required to pay the Winstons some royalties, it's ad agencies.

I've had several other artists contact me regarding their tracks also being released without permission and without compensation. I've sent Carmel a cease and desist letter over six months ago, nothing has been done. I've left him a message, and have been more than generous regarding time for him to purchase the rights to the song or pay for the copyright infringement and stop selling the tune.

Nothing.


I will be taking legal action if he doesn't settle this soon, getting tired of waiting. In the meantime I'm satisfied with people knowing that he is a thief, so hopefully no one else wastes any of their life trying to deal with him.
