Numerous music composers for videogame denounce the theft of their songs to sell NFTs without their permission

Numerous music composers for videogame have denounced on social networks the theft of their songs to sell NFTs without their permission.

This unfortunate maneuver is occurring on the Hitpiece musical NFTS platform, which offers users "own a song, build a unique playlist and join an artist community," as you can read on your Twitter account.

However, it seems that what they are really doing is to navigate Spotify looking for songs, download them without permission from their authors and sell them later without, evidently paying the rights.

Grant Kirkhope, the composer nominated Banjo-Kazooie Bafta, Donkey Kong 64 or World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, explained that "Hitpiece, who knows that one of the songs you are selling in which I appear is owned by Blizzard Entertainment, which Now it is property of Microsoft... Good luck with that. "

David Wise, another composer of the soundtrack of Donkey Kong 64, added that "please, distribute the message that Hitpiece is trying to sell digital resources that simply can not legally own. There is no legal organization with the authority to authenticate these transactions, and there are no contracts with composers, interpreters or editors. "

Gareth Coker, Ori music composer and various halo, states that "the Hitpiece website is garbage. They sell NFTs after downloading with a bot all the catalog of Spotify. There are many people affected. In no way me or publishers we support this ".

Line Goes Up – The Problem With NFTs "The soundtracks of Ori, Halo and Rk are there, to begin with, it's a joke, withdrawing them".

And not only have British or American musicians have been affected, there are also cases with composers from our country. It is the case of Paula Fingerspit, the creator of the music of the Games of the independent studio DeConstructuteam, who explained on Twitter that "apparently a page is selling NFTS of my music and that of other artists, without permission. Obviously it is stolen and not Support for the damned NFTs at all. If you buy anything from NFTs, it will be 100% unofficial and without any type of consent. "

The Hitpiece page is currently inactive and shows the message "We started the conversation and we are listening."

On the last tweet of it, they say that "we have clearly touched the fiber and we are anxious to create the ideal experience for music fans." They also say that artists whose music is published on their platform receive economic compensation, although the statements of those affected entirely contradict this affirmation.

This is the last controversial case related to the NFTS, which have a negative image among most of the community of players. A few hours ago, without going any further, Team17 has announced its resignation to move forward with the plans to sell NFTS of its well-known IP Worms, after the avalanche of negative messages by not only users, but also from the independent developers to which edits.
