This is important to avoid multiple users contacting the same artist or label for their permission more than once. When you ask for permission, be sure to include: • What FFR actually is (include facts, statistics, the basics of gameplay). • That FFR is non-profit (the site doesn't get any money from the use of their songs). • A link to the site. • A list of artists who have already given permission (a link to this thread is fine). • Confirmation that their music is safe and will not be available to download. You can also refer to this thread when asking a new artist. Remember, we are requesting to use their music, so take care to be respectful and let them know that it's a privilege to have them on our site. Here's a thorough guide on how you can ask for permission : (information taken from this thread) [spoiler] Note: Credit for everything listed in this thread goes out to TheRapingDragon. Aside from the v1, this v2 explains and demonstrates how to effectively and properly get the permission of song artists (v1) and how the results of your permission gets are handled now-a-days (v2). So, you've just heard some awesome music and want it in FFR? Well, you've come to the right place. This thread is going to try to help you go through the stages of trying to get a permission. Step One - Be accurate. Before you even begin to try to get a permission you have to make sure that all of your information is accurate and correct. Make sure that you have the right author / song title / album title (where applicable). Make sure it's not a remix or something like that which could get FFR in trouble with the original author who never gave permission for the remix in the first place. The other reason for accuracy is so that you show the recipient of the email that you know what you are talking about. Depending on what you are going for you will need to follow a different step. If: - You are asking an independent artist / group for their permission then go to step 2. - You are asking a signed artist / group for their permission or a record label for any artist at all then go to step 3 Step Two: Independent Artists / Groups The beauty about independent artists is that they have no record company or label (or they own the label themselves) and so you only need to send one email. Make sure to be absolutely certain that they don't have a label. Once you are certain try to find a contact address for them. This could either be an email or a letter. Some good places to check for contact points for independent artists are wikipedia, their official website, or myspace (or similar musical outlets such as last.fm). Once you have an email address you can send the email to them. I prepared a template email that can be used: Here's one of the more formal templates available and widely used for independent artists and/or groups: Step Three: Artists / Groups that are signed to a record label This does vary from label to label but ultimately your final email will be around the same. The first thing to do is find out which label the artist or group is with. This can most likely be found on wikipedia. Secondly, you need to go to the labels website and make sure if you can find any "terms of service" or "artist / license request" forms or information on either. (Usually located at the bottom of these sites, are links for the ToS and artist/license requests.) These will usually give you information on how a label feels about distributing the music of their artists. It can also tell you if the label will expect royalties for anything to do with any of their artists. If you can't find anything like this then you can move on. If you do find a form, and it doesn't mention royalties, then you should use that form to apply for request for music to be put into FFR. If none of the above is applicable then you'll need to move on to emails. The ideal route is to send two emails. One to the artist / group and one to the record label. If a band is linked with multiple labels and you aren't sure which label is the right one for what you are asking permission for, then you may have to email every single label and explain the situation. The following emails are what I suggest as templates for your two emails: Step Three and ¾: Artists / Groups that require Japanese Translation We now have a Japanese-translated version of the template (thanks to Jimerax for providing translation and XelNya for rediscovering it), that can assist in reaching out to those that may use Japanese as a first language. As with other templates, it is editable, but do keep in-mind that you should consider the accuracy of any edits made to the template, such-as the Author's name / Label name, as well as any music content that might be in Japanese or otherwise. Reminder that when sending out copies of the template, that you're copying the URL links correctly within the template. (right-click the link, copy link address, paste. Copying just the text may cause it to substitute dots or shortening that will break the link.) Copyright, Permission, Public Domain and You Information from this section was taken from this thread.

Links to Permission Posts v8
Post #5 Links to Permission Posts This post is for keeping track of current and future permissions for reference purposes. Every permission that has been publicly announced will be added here. Further details of permissions can be found in Post #2, #3, #4, or on their Wiki pages if applicable. Screenshots are saved on the Wiki when possible. Links Part 1 (To check) Links Part 2 (Missing information) Links Part 3 (Checked and added in the wiki) Links Part 4 (No permission) Links Part 5 Addendum: v9 Prep There are a great deal of things out-of-date with permissions in this thread. This Addendum serves as an area of things that are not updated in the main posts, but are posted in-thread and either still need to be added to the main post, or incorporated into the next version of this thread. For the meantime, they are listed here in a place where they can be referenced, instead of needing to browse the entire thread for content that isn't already listed in previous threads, or already in the main post of this thread. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...it?usp=sharing This Spreadsheet contains up-to-date information in a ctrl+f-friendly environment in which to search and observe the entire FFR catalog of permissions. Please try to use it instead of the v8 thread, as much of the content within the v8 thread is out of date.

Changelog v8
As you can see, there were some changes made from the last permission thread :
- All artists links are listed in their wiki pages, as well as specific information concerning their permissions (only if that information could be found). This will make things way simpler and more accessible so everyone can help expanding musician profiles on the wiki. - Blanket and limited permissions are now merged together. This was done to make the list easier to browse and to update. And the difference between blanket and limited can be blurry. The list has been split in two to make sure I'm not over the character limit. Details concerning the permission are shown in pink. Some things to be done : - Adding everything in the wiki and a lot of musician pages need to be updated or expanded. Post 3 needs to be completed too. - Label permissions : listing bands under the label in the wiki. (considered but I'm uncertain about doing it) - Links to permissions in Post 5. - Double-checking everything from the v7 thread. - Go through the subforum to find missing permissions. - Making sure that every new permissions has been added to this thread. - Saving and adding screenshots and details of permissions in the wiki. - Improving/adding music genres. (where do most of these comes from too ?) A few things to verify about permissions : - Allison Crowe : "this thread" ? - Blitz Lunar : "link to song list, please" ? - Echeleon : probably a typo with Echelon (mystery) - Evelyn Bishop : permission for only one song ? - Gray Fox : FFR sim database lolwut - Missqulater : link is down - Hardcore Underground and NiTEFLARE : we don't have the proof of permission - Monstercat : Need to add details of permission - Other problematic perms : Aliceffekt, Anthrax!, Atomic Inc/Bass Piratez, PixlCrushr - Both blanket and limited : AnonyWolf, championanwar, cosMo, PurpleX, Sherry Kim, The Flashbulb, Thy Winter Shadow - NEKOTEK = Nekomimi ? I was also tempted to change the title of thread from "Artist Blanket Permissions v8" to "Permissions v8" since not all of them are blanket nor artists… Should we change the title ? Changed Thanks Dossar for letting me manage this thread. Quote:
Still need to add the most recent ones I believe and the list will be up to date. Thanks. If you like numbers In this thread (first 6 posts + this one) 167388 characters 21446 words (qualifies for a novella) 2406 urls

Re: Artist Blanket Permissions v8
For the Monstercat permission, we are able to step anything of theirs that is on one of the albums.
ie. not anything by Krewella The permission was obtained on August 21, 2013 if you want to add that to the wiki or something. I can PM you the original screenshot too if you need it Last edited by Poison-; 02-8-2015 at 10:17 AM.. |

Re: Artist Blanket Permissions v8

Re: Artist Blanket Permissions v8
Big updates, Silvuh proposed to me to include information from a handful of useful stickies related to permissions in general. Things have moved a lot :
Post 1 Now including the guide Obtaining Permissions and You! [v2], updated the figures (1.9 million users + link to the thread) Also including : Copyright, Permission, Public Domain and You Post 3 Finished formatting all the permissions last week. Post 5 Slowly started to find permission links, they will be added in any of the 4 sections. Post 6 Including Denied Artist Permission, went through the thread and even the old thread to find missing stuff. I'll also add some (30ish?) that I have tried to contact a few years ago. There's a changelog too (post 9) which was already present in post 6. It's a mess and will stay like that until I verify all of them. Also, thread title has been changed.

Re: Permissions List and Information v8
Major League Wobs / Holder
Full permission to use any and all material! He also said that if anything of his was added into the game he'd highlight a video of it on his YouTube channel which has a good amount of subscribers, although most of them being CoD players..but still a large audience of potential new players nonetheless.
