Follow Niko's journey to return the sun with a new 11-track album by @BillyTheBard11! One part lo-fi electronica, one part progressive metal. Dark yet hopeful, just like the game itself. Here's "Flooded Ruins". #OneShot
Flooded Ruins / Towards The Sun (OneShot Album)
11 tracks from "OneShot," arranged as a lo-fi electronica and progressive metal concept album.
We tried to communicate this to GameChops, and we are sorry that we couldn't reach a resolution that made everyone happy. However, we will stick to our values, which are that creators (composers AND artists) deserve to be paid for their work.
We're all for giving back to the community, but that shouldn’t come at the cost of creators being paid for their work. Unlicensed commercial albums that don't benefit the people who make them go against everything we stand for.
GameChops didn't ask their artists first. Also, “pay-what-you-want” is complicated when it comes to albums that require licensing — as is the Content ID situation. GameChops told us they would not be paying future royalties to artists OR composers.
While we have long admired GameChops and their artists, we removed their catalog from Materia's bandcamp today, after 2 years of managing albums, licensing, etc.
Last weekend, GameChops set albums to $0/pay-what-you-want. Had we been consulted, we would have said no. Here's why:
"My Burden Is Light" — Today is the release of Towards the Sun, a #OneShot concept album by @billythebard11 that mixes low-fi electronica with prog metal. 11 tracks (of course!) following Niko's journey to return the sun. Download or stream now at materia.to/towardsthesunTW
