Finally Made Some Money From Songwriting..
Been meaning to put up this link for a while now, but it keeps slipping my mind. I've a tendency to completely forget about something once I have moved onto pastures newer. Anyhow, late last year I posted a new song called "Say Say" and was susequently approached by the web designers for Portree Stables , asking if they could license the music from the song (no lyrics), for a video on their site. It would promote the stables and its owner, the famous horse trainer Tom Taaffe. It was an interesting process since I had to research and learn about the legalities surrounding music licensing. It's a very complex area, but a good learning experience. In the end, there is very little money in it since there are plenty of websites where canned music is available for licensing cheaply. Nevertheless, I was happy to do this, so I remixed it without vocals and, who knows, maybe I'll get some got tips about the ponies and make some cash that way...
You can check out the video here. The sound quality isn't as good as I would like, but it's streaming video, so it is as good as can be expected.
