STOLEN Star Wars Remix (KujoGodOfWar) - PLEASE READ

Hello, I am an electronic artist who releases all my original music and remixes under the name of Audix. Recently, I discovered that the newgrounds artist KujoGodOfWar (http://kujogodofwar.newgrounds.com/) stole my Star Wars remix four months ago and claimed credit for it, acquiring 20,000 plays and nearly 5,500 downloads under his name:

http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen /151696 (Will hopefully be deleted soon.)

I'm writing this note to ask everyone who downloaded the track to edit the artist name in the mp3 file accordingly. Unfortunately, this song plagiarism has spread to last.fm, I-meem, I-Like, youtube, and several free mp3 sharing sites. We can't fix them all but I'd appreciate your help.

On a lighter note, thanks to all the 240 + people who commented on the track! It still means a lot and I certainly appreciate each one! I recently finished my first album "One Day Millennium," which features 11 tracks in a very similar vein to my Star Wars remix (including a fully licensed, dance-club banging Pirates of the Caribbean techno remix). You can check out previews and purchase it for a reasonable price here:

*end short plug* :)

I'll be uploading new tracks very soon. The username "Audix" was not available here at newgrounds so I had to go with "audixmusic" instead. I'll be sticking around. :)

Just so you know you can get banned for reveiwing that a flash/audio is stolen, whether it is or isn't.

I was not aware of this. I would hope the admins would review it on a case-by-case basis, as I'm just trying to salvage what is left.

Report it to this user.

By the way, just asking, how long did it take to make?

audixmusic 2008-10-14 20:14:15

Yeah, I reported it twice now, once last Friday and once on Monday. Also had a few friends report it too, but nothing has happened yet. :/

Hmm, the track probably took me about a month, best guess is about 25 hours of work total.

Do you have proof that you made the song?
Cause if you don't, you can't say it's stolen from you.

audixmusic 2008-10-20 23:10:10

Of course I do. Check out the upload date on this page:

It's a whole three months before he stole my track and uploaded it. I also recorded a video of the song playing in my host sequencer. I already PMed and emailed all this to the admins.

SwampLord9 2008-10-22 19:22:14

What a fucking jerk. People like that make me so mad.

I didn't know it was stolen. My apologies.

Its great work, nonetheless. Keep it up! :D

NikoBellic 2008-10-22 21:14:17

Damn, who knew? You have real talent, it's too bad others have to resort to things like that

suino66 2008-11-21 05:44:30

Audix, i'm very sorry for you.
I'll edit the artist name in the mp3 file.

Steven-Polley 2009-04-06 21:54:38

In any case, welcome to Newgrounds!

audixmusic 2009-04-06 21:54:38

Thank you! I have three songs uploaded now with several more to come. The Star Wars track will see itself uploaded here, too. :)

Codomis 2009-04-08 18:59:17

I liked his version better, it had more passion then yours

audixmusic 2009-04-08 18:59:17

mmm, you're kidding, right? It was the exact same song, which is kinda the point of plagiarism. :/

audixmusic 2009-04-27 23:50:22

Well, I finally uploaded the track under my own name, though it isn't getting anywhere near the publicity it did under the plagiarized name. :/

Maybe you should post that your new name is Sole Signal.
I thought of you as two different persons. :D
