So what we told Noel was: "1) Sounds like an awesome idea. We got permission from Disney and you should too if you want to do that."
#PROPELLERHEADS REASON 9.5 DEMO MOVIE#
If I contacted the local movie theater and asked them for their permission to screen Star Wars at an event I'm hosting do you think they'd say "sure go for it!" or "um, dude. If your local movie theater shows Star Wars on the big screen, they're licensing the right to do that from the studio who made that movie. Just like they have no legal standing to grant permission on these artists' music, neither do we. So it's not that we told Noel: "you can't use it." It's that we told Noel "it's not a question that we can answer because it's not our intellectual property." He'd have as much legal standing to ask Ableton if he could host these songs. That wouldn't be fair to the musicians who gave us very specific and limited permissions to use their intellectual property. and you can't decide on new terms down the road simply because Noel is a nice guy and he has the best of intentions for the community. We simply licensed this music from artists over the years, who granted us permission to include it with the version of Reason we were shipping at the time. This music is not ours to give permission about. That second question is where the confusion is lying with some people in this thread, so let me be clear in this: That answer has two parts for us, which break down like this:ġ) Would we like to see a resource like that and are we stoked that someone like Noel does so much archival work for the Reason community? Absolutely! We love what Noel does at Reasonistas and by any objective measure you gotta love someone's initiative to compile this.Ģ) Are we able to actually give that permission or are we even the right people to be asking? No. The question to Propellerhead from Noel was "Would you guys mind if I hosted every Reason demo song from all old versions on my site?" People didn't seem to read or understand what Noel was saying about our permission or lack of permission to post the demo songs so let me try and clarify: i'm going to jump in and comment to clear up what is clearly some confusion. It would showcase the awesome capabilities of Reason. You'd think Propellerhead would have no problem with the demoes.
