Boutique game soundtrack record label. We create, manage, and protect some of the most popular video game soundtracks, piano collections & vgm covers albums.
It's an imperfect system, and as one of the only music rights administrators in the space, we have limited resources when trying to improve YouTube policies. It's a work in progress, and feedback is welcome!
You're right, that's our goal, and we try.
We have spent the last 7+ years manually reviewing millions of videos, and trying to establish better YouTube policies to prevent Let's Plays, gameplay footage, and other use of game soundtrack usage from being claims/demonetized.
We don't want claims on Let's Plays.
To the extent we are able, we set policies to avoid claiming Let's Play videos, game footage, and other ok uses of the music.
The system isn't perfect so if anything slips through, a member of our publishing team reviews disputes and claims.
Bummer. Pizza Tower is on the same trajectory as Undertale was 7 years ago, and licensed cover songs were life-changing for lots of vgm artists. Happy to chat licensing options or address any questions over at @MateriaMusicPub
We are thrilled to represent the music publishing rights for Pizza Tower on behalf of composers @Mister_Sauceman@ClascyJitto@PostElvis.
Part of our responsibility is ensuring that covers, remixes, and other uses are licensed, and that composers are credited and paid.
We are saddened to learn of the passing of arranger, producer, engineer, guitarist, and otherwise outstanding human @PirateCrabUK.
Daniel contributes to multiple Materia albums over the years and will be missed.
