The YouTube channel "Mindless Beats - Topic" is one of those auto-generated channels that get created when someone distributes music to streaming services. I started to get about ten copyright claims a day on my own music rerouting my monetization to these randomly named tracks. I've been successfully disputing most of the claims, but the biggest problem is that anyone using my music, which I've said is free to use, is now also getting those claims. I need this to stop ASAP and I've contacted YouTube and all distributors involved trying to get the uploads taken down.

I'm not sure how much this will help, since it's not a traditional YouTube channel, but if y'all wouldn't mind reporting this as a spam/scam and saying it's stolen reuploaded music, I'd appreciate it. It's actually my birthday week and I've just been having a long stretchy anxiety attack about this.

I'm so desperate to get this resolved quickly that I'm back flagging down the companies on social media if you wanna help me out. https://twitter.com/MelloMakes/status/1722704124653732022

2 Mello lets people use his music royalty free on youtube videos, something that is really helpful for small creators. Please help him flag these stolen songs so him and all the people around the internet using his videos stop getting de-monetized

i am in a weird nexus of "not surprised" and "surprised" with this cuz on one hand post Blazing and tipping and double-triple-quad checkmarks or whatever was like... ok Tumblr is carving out its niche and making stuff work for itself within its scope

but also it trying to corporatize smol bean posting and changing the dashboard to look like twitter and shove Live™ content in your face was like... idk. very clear floundering.

sucks. i'm surprised, i'm not surprised, mostly i'm sad because it seems like automattic were/are actually pretty good to them and tumblr probably wouldn't have had a chance to do anything new under different/more vulturous ownership
