![]() ![]() Our role in music management means we have to track all usages of a song. Why are you claiming my cover song/remix/alternate version as the original music?Īny recording of a song is still a usage of that song, whether it’s close to the original or a remix. Audio match claims imply that the creator is using a specified recording of the song - in other words, that your video uses a particular version, such as a cover. If the claim is a melody match, it is on behalf of the original song, even if it mentions a cover song. ![]() If you receive a claim on YouTube, take a look at the type of claim listed. Our claims are on behalf of the original songs, and any cover artists listed are not involved in the claims. ![]() The cover versions are used as reference only. YouTube often uses multiple recordings of a song as a reference to determine whether the music present in creator videos matches that song. Why does my claim list a cover song/artist when only the original music is being used? If you received a claim for a “Let’s Play”, speedrun, commentary, or other video that uses the original music alongside game footage, please feel free to dispute the claim, and we will investigate further. We ask for your patience if you need our assistance. We have to address any corrections or disputes ourselves, and we are a small team, so it can take time for us to resolve issues. We track the music on YouTube for analytical and credit purposes, to ensure that incorrect claims are fixed, and to prevent unlawful usage of the music.Ĭlaims are matched automatically within YouTube’s system, so there may occasionally be mistaken claims. Our job is to help protect the rights of the original composers and copyright holders. Materia Music Publishing manages the music rights for Toby Fox’s UNDERTALE and DELTARUNE, and many other video game soundtracks. Giving credit where it’s due is the right thing to do! Why do you claim music on YouTube? In the case of UNDERTALE or DELTARUNE, that means crediting Toby Fox as the composer and Materia Music Publishing as copyright administrator. If you do use music published by Materia Music Publishing, we ask you to please credit the appropriate composer/copyright holder in your video’s description. There is no penalty or punishment for receiving a claim. This is not a strike against your channel. If you use this music non-commercially, your streams may still receive a claim to let us know that the music is being used. (This means your video is not intended to make you money, not selling a product that will make you money, etc.) You are welcome to use music by Materia Music Publishing, including the UNDERTALE and DELTARUNE soundtracks, for your videos as long as you’re doing so non-commercially. Can I use music from games such as UNDERTALE or DELTARUNE in my YouTube videos? We suggest obtaining independent legal counsel regarding your specific circumstances.
