Why are some of your Live DJ Sets now not listed ?
Due to on going battle with ravesuperstore (new site) claiming the rights to everything under the name rave trying to push out anyone that supplies oldskool Live DJ sets by going direct to your Host Server claiming to represent owners of clubs / packs / DJ sets, which we have repeatedly asked for proof of ownership from rave superstore aka Rotate Distribution Ltd as yet no reply, so to keep our Host Server happy we have temporarily removed some packs.
We put up a test name made up by us “Amnesia Rave” yes there is amnesia house out there and amnesia in Ibiza but nothing called “Amnesia Rave” dint take very long in an email to our Host Server Dated 05/10/24 rave superstore aka Rotate Distribution Ltd laid claim to it amongst others.
Wonder if they be as quick to lay claim to the contents or would this make them liable for royalties?
Same email was the following
House of music simply has no rights to sell any of the products in the Club Sets Collector’s Editions link.
(Krystal our old host server)
I think Krystal basically asked XXXXXX for proof of authority to sell any products we reported and of course he couldn’t supply any contracts as all products are bootleg copies.
(Above is just a blatant lie, Krystal never asked and they know it).
(All House Of Music Live DJ Sets you find are freely available across the internet we do not lay claim to owning them).
Please note we do not want any contact with XXXXX through you as he has threatened us with violence in the past.
(This is away of giving reason for going direct to your Host Server).
You have one week to reply before we start legal action on House Of Music.
(Been using this line for well over a year now).
In fairness was told by Rotate Distribution Ltd that if we bought our supplies from them and sold them in a format they was happy with (i.e. CD Packs they manufactured and supplied) we could continue to sell them without a problem! (which is never going to happen)
Host Server’s
What you got to realize your Host Server probably as thousands of sites to deal with so if your competition / competitors play dirty this is how they do it they pester your Host Server until your Host Server just want out.
If your lucky you may find an Host Server that will ask your competition / competitors a few basic questions.
1. “Take-down Notice” request should also show proof that you as the sender owns the copyrights or represents the party who does.
(Not just say they own it, but real proof)
2. Name: Proof of Trade marked / Copyrighted title (s) / name (s).
3. Image Rights: Copyright registration and or the chain of title for the Image (s).
Bought from us: What the owner of Rotate Distribution Ltd aka cdpacksuperstore called at the time now called ravesuperstore bought from our site, looking on it now maybe already had plans to go into old skool rave, so bought the packs from us, started ravesuperstore then started the claims of ownership,
Items the owner of Rotate Distribution Ltd aka ravesuperstore bought from us
[Order #16757] (04/03/2022)
“DANCE PLANET” “DREAMSCAPE” “FANTAZIA” “OBSESSION” “PANDEMONIUM ANDROMEDA” “SLAMMIN VINYL” “UNITED DANCE”
[Order #16751] (02/03/2022)
“QUEST”
Probably more as he could of realized after buying these it wasn’t a good idea to buy in is own name.
All these packs at this time we been selling for well over 10 years without a single claim of copyright.
Bootlegs, talk about pot calling the kettle black (as the saying goes)
Club DJ mixes, tapes & CDs they are 99.9% Unofficial (Bootlegs) most have no clearance they have been tolerated as part of the scene (very hard to police) but does not change the fact that they are bootlegs this means that 99.9% of what rave superstore aka Rotate Distribution Ltd manufactures and sell on there website ravesuperstore.com and in there eBay, Amazon and Tiktok stores are bootlegs!
Don’t forget they claim to hold the rights to these or represent the owners that do.
Rave superstore minions yes they got minions they use to hound your host server, having other to claim ownership.
Wonder how long they stick around once the royalty rights man comes knocking.
As we been informed all is soon going to change due to now having the technology to scan mixes for royalty rights.
Promoters that claim the ownership on Rotate Distribution Ltd behalf for some reason believe they be exempt from being liable for royalties for selling of uncleared Unofficial tapes and CDs that been sold under there names (club names) have forgotten that most of these tapes/CDs carried there club names printed on them tapes/cd sleeves advertising dates and time of events and up and coming events address contact numbers.
Rotate Distribution Ltd aka cdpacksuperstore now called ravesuperstore knowingly manufacturing, distribution and selling these tapes/CDs without the proper clearance (which being a professional company no doubt ask for and have on file). Which we have repeatedly asked to see.
Pretty sure will make them as liable as the promoters.
Summary
Rotate Distribution Ltd got a new selling model switching from cdpacksuperstore to ravesuperstore and house of music is in there way, and there going to use any dirty trick necessary to move that obstacle out the way.
If anything above is incorrect we are happy to be corrected.
All House Of Music Live DJ Sets you find are freely available across the internet we charge a price for a service off having them in one place and safe place to buy from.
