    change the tempo of the songs for a tiny difference. if it’s a different tempo, it is a different song, thats my little trick.

    A lot of sites are implementing this content identification tool (Soundcloud, Myspace, etc). If I’m correct I believe it’s based on musical algorithm & if your track matches something in their database you’ll get bounced. As for beating the system you basically have to alter your track “enough” that the algorithm identifies it as unique. Also since this is based on a database of some sorts you’ll probably find more copyright detection issues w/ major label artists than indie label artists.

    How much of a change in tempo is required ?

    I used to put about 10 seconds of random noise (backwards tracks, random scratching, pitches up and down) at the start of my mix to get it past the copyright sensors. Just create a small 10 second track of random noise (fade in and out so it doesn’t sound shit) and paste it on the front of your mix using Audacity and it should be ok to put up.

    I’ve now got a mixcrate which so far seems a lot less lenient on the whole copyright thing.

    I did a Breakin’ a Sweat – Skrillex Mashup, and because of its label it wouldn’t let me upload it, I just changed the tempo for a little, maybe from 70bpm to 71 or 72bpm, it alters it but the difference you can’t even hear it.
