Hey everyone! I have decided to clear a few things up for the new year to come! I've been feeling conflicted about usage of my music in music games for a little while now, and with the release of GD's 2.2 update and the advent of the new year, I figured now would be a right time to get everything clear once and for all!
Geometry Dash / Newgrounds API usage
First of all: I do NOT consider myself a "Geometry Dash Musician". By this, I mean that GD is in no way my priority when making music, and has never been ; as such, comments asking me for GD usage with nothing else to say are beginning to rub me the wrong way. This post might be able to clear any questionings you might have regarding my music.
This being said, every track I have ever posted on Newgrounds will now be allowed for API usage (changes will be rolling out in the coming week), with the following exceptions :
- A̶n̶y̶ ̶r̶e̶m̶i̶x̶.̶ nevermind remixes are whitelisted now
Anything else is out of the question. Please refrain from using a NONG song of mine in any of your GD levels. If you do, I can't really stop you, but if one of my songs isn't on Newgrounds, it's probably for a good reason.
Custom maps in music games
Go ahead, as long as you credit me properly.
Usage as part of a soundtrack
If you want to use my music as part of a soundtrack, please contact me and we can discuss the details, but you should know that the answer will most likely be no. I might open commissions for video game soundtracks someday though 🤔
Feel free to contact me if you need any further info. Thanks to everyone for sticking around and caring enough to listen to my music ^^ I wish all of you a happy new year!
