Don't Stand For Plagiarised Music!

[Phantom]

So pretty much, a great producer, Asalto uploaded a track for free called 'Napoleon' in early 2012. In the summer, someone known as 'DJ JT' reuploaded the exact same track to Beatport under the name 'Diablo' and is making money off of his insensitive act of plagiarism/theft. He didn't credit Asalto in any way, and acted like it was his own production. It took everyone a few months to catch it, but let's not let him make another penny off someone else's work!

Asalto's Facebook Post:
"You remember my track 'Napoleon' I released as a free download?
There's a douchbag called 'DJ JT' who "stole" and released my track 'Napoleon' under another name on Beatport, iTunes, Spotify and more: http://www.beatport.com/track/diablo...al-mix/3712525
How dumb can someone be? We really live in a sick world with sick people! And it's not like he's an unsuccessful DJ. And that's the most ridiculous thing.

DON'T support this guy, he's nothing but a thief who isn't able to create his own stuff. That's so poor...

PLEASE help me and share this info. Everyone has to see how birdbrained 'DJ JT' is.

Start the ****storm!

That's not exactly the best way to look at the plagiarism of someone else's hard work and creativity.

That's not the best way to understand sarcasm on the internet.

Then why even bother responding?

[DJ-Veaux]

Then why even bother responding?

I agree

[Finnish_Fox]

Then why even bother responding?

Because he had time, an internet connection, fingers and a keyboard.

First time on the internet? Welcome.

yeah, that's pretty blatant. Same track length and everything.
Oh, and the twitter page doesn't exist anymore lol.

Shady shit. Can't he get Beatport to take the track down?

I think that's what he's trying to do, along with (rightfully) ruining the rep of the guy as well. Other than emailing certain contacts like support@beatport.com, we can't do too, too much other than making more awareness about it. The guy also put the track up on iTunes and other places as well, and taking all of it down is something that can be accomplished faster with more supporters spreading awareness.
