Indeed, that sounds much more uniform and high-quality. If we assume it's ripped, it could be some lesser-known videogame music. Very unlikely to be pure sample-based modules indeed.
It's interesting that this stuff only seems to be spread to YouTube and Spotify, and not other download stores.

I managed to pull the ISRC codes out of Spotify, but lookup on them finds nothing as well. The releases are just probably so fresh that they've not been updated to the international database. Once they're added, I can get the composers' real name.

Fun fact though, they're claiming the tracks were made in 1974 and 1975 according to the year of reference part in Babylon Projects' ISRC codes.

edit: Routenote is investigating, they'll contact me for further info or not. Stuff should disappear anyway.

Routenote was fast at dealing with the report, their stuff should go down promptly. Babylon Project has 5 days to respond to the claims and if they do, Routenote will put me in touch with them directly. Doubt it's going to happen, but one can hope.

No response from the "artist", so they've removed the album indefinitely.

It'll probably reappear with another internet publishing platform eventually. >_>

Did you receive any information on the infringer?

No, I don't think there's a way around the privacy laws without actual legal action or the infringer disputing the claim and having to be in contact with me voluntarily.

I also realized the ISRC database won't show your real name unless you join a performance rights organization to collect the composer/songwriter royalties along with the streaming revenue. Shame that.

That's the point.. you cannot open any legal action against the person without knowing who they are. I got this information from feiyr's lawyer after I told them that I reserve the right to proceed with legal actions against the uploader.
