<br>At G=TE we are all about supporting unique skills and creativity. This means that when a producer submits a track, the track created by the producer is 100% original. This is according to the legally binding declaration and the form that they fill out when submitting their track to your release.</br>
<br>‘Created by the producer’ means that only the producer (individually or as representative of a <a href="https://welcometogate.com/faq/solution/57" target="_blank" ><u>collaboration or group</u></a>) has created the track. No one else was involved in the creative process of developing it. The track is based on their own idea and inspiration.</br>
<br>Electronic music tracks often contain many different collaborators and components. So we always ask the producer to have a second look at their track’s originality before submitting, by confirming that:</br>
<br>– If they used third-party content, they only used: <a href="https://welcometogate.com/faq/solution/90" target="_blank" ><u>cleared samples</u></a> and <a href="https://welcometogate.com/faq/solution/91" target="_blank" ><u>licensed royalty-free sounds</u></a>.</br>
<br>– If they collaborated with someone else on the track, the producer is responsible for their remuneration according to their agreed revenue splits and that no unlicensed third-party content was used by them.</br>
<br>To sum up: Only 100% original music is submitted to G=TE releases. If a track has used third-party content, its producer has confirmed to have proof of right and can show upon request if signed. If a track has collaborators, the producer has confirmed to represent them and remunerate them according to existing agreements. Please note that G=TE does not check any track's originality.</br>
<br>Tip: Once you submit a release and your release starts, you'll finally be able to see each track’s originality details when you start listening to the track in the <a href="https://welcometogate.com/faq/solution/41" target="_blank" ><u> incognito player</u></a>.</br>
<br>Note: If the producer is submitting a track as a group (so, not as an individual producer) when we say producer we refer to the entire group that they represent.
