Virt (Jake Kaufman) Gives Us FULL Permission

Quasar889 · 12-4-2008, 07:01 PM

So I was listening to virt's music (New Album is really good, the one with Bedtime Story in it) and I was wondering if he'd be inclined to give FFR permission to use his stuff.

So I emailed him about it, and he not only gave full permission, but he said that he liked FFR and wanted to link to us on his main site (he runs a fairly large VGMix site).

He'd like to be emailed whenever we release one of his songs, just so he can put the news up on his site, but he's really excited to be part of FFR.

So, without further ado:

Copy of the Email:
Matt! Great to hear from you!

I'm quite familiar with the stepping world; I learned of it through my buddy DJ Potatoe who was pretty big into it, and I'm also friends with the insanely talented chiptune musician/stepper Renard, and various other dudes in the community. Although I don't do stepfiles myself, and in fact suck hard at music games in general (though they're a lot of fun), I am totally supportive of the scene.

So, short and sweet, you have my permission to step anything I've written, on my site or otherwise. I definitely respect the time and attention to detail that goes into stepping, so I'm honored if my stuff inspires others to do creative things.

My only request is that people try to email me when stuff goes live; if not, no big deal, but I want to proudly link to it from my site and reciprocate the publicity.

ROCK ON!!!
-Jake

who_cares973 · 12-4-2008, 07:32 PM

**EnR** · 12-4-2008, 07:43 PM

Only everything in Orignals.

His site.

http://virt.vgmix.com/

Btw, Quasar. If you didn't notice, a song from Virt is already going in the game soon, meaning we already had permission.

**Tasselfoot** · 12-4-2008, 07:53 PM

please please please check and make sure we haven't gotten permission from someone already before asking. i really hate seeing multiple people asking artists for stuff they've already given permission for.

He's A Radical Rat is in the queue, and just in case I also received permission from the performer Samuel Ascher Weiss. I'll forward that sometime. (Also permission for all his other songs under shnabubula)

send the good man replays when they come out

**EnR** · 12-4-2008, 08:50 PM

I already promised him I'd show him replays/videos of me playing them.

Also, if you, the step artists wanna tell him anything, I can message him, he liked JX's message xD.

**Patashu** · 12-4-2008, 08:51 PM

man I need to convert visitor for ffr

some other time tho

Quasar889 · 12-4-2008, 10:12 PM

Well, in my defense, I managed to garner permission for more than we had (just originals to everything)...

I must admit, I feel pretty stupid for not checking that thread, though.
In any case, we've now got undisputable permission to all of his music now. That can only be a good thing

**jimerax** · 12-6-2008, 12:07 AM

moar virt

We already have 4 files in the queue.
I can convert Bedtime Story for FFR, but probably I won't.
