I have notified both Louigi Verona and Awesome. Louigi has sent a complaint to the distributor, Spinnup. Let's see where this goes.

Seems like vol 3 was pulled from YouTube, the others are still there.

Hey everyone!

Here are the updates. This particular album, as you've seen, has been pulled from YouTube. Take down requests have been sent to other stores as well.

However, I have asked them this:

"In order for Spinnup to act on other releases, do the original authors of those releases have to specifically contact you? Or can you act based on the evidence you've seen in that ModArchive thread, which hints at this artist being a con artist and plagiarizing most of his releases, if not all of them? In other words, at which point would you make a decision to ban the artist as opposed to taking down just one of his releases which was formally complained about?"

They said:

"As part of any copyright claim we conduct a full investigation of the Spinnup user's account, and so we will of course take into account the information you provided us with.

Once the evidence has been reviewed and the investigation complete, we will then be able to make a decision about the user's other releases and their account as a whole."

Hopefully, that means this person's whole account will be eventually blocked. However, another complaint, from another artist, probably wouldn't hurt.

That's great news, and they seem to be more inclined to fix this stuff than YouTube could ever be. I just had a look at the artists in volume 2 and I think I will point Ballistique at this thread.
Edit: Unrelated to these albums but Rapture pointed out that one of his own tracks was also ripped on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4GgYDgHw03A (original track is Aphrodisiac). It's distributed by the same publisher, Spinnup. I recommended him to take action as well, maybe it's the same guy after all!

and there are some more songs i recognized on mark bench's other albums:
alpha c - bright star (alpha_c_-_bright_star.it) (track 5 on promenade)
falcon - aural sunflower (sunflower.xm) (track 1/6 on augmented reality)
tb - butterfly flew away (tbbutt.xm) (track 6 on promenade)
distance/lackluster - catch 22 (catch22.xm) (track 4 on sea of stars)

maybe sa mowar, mark bench, babylon project (and swagato gangopadhyay) are the same person??
