I wanted to post this as a means of awareness to people "actually" producing music. Be aware when sending promos out with whatever label you release the song on. In this case, the promo was sent out and this was renamed, released and even credited by major artists. The original artist/producer was never informed or credited. Make sure you are protected (especially when it comes to EDM). A good way to do this is through www.Audiam.com , a service which finds any trace of your work online and keeps track of the where and when, even how many plays/views. Here is a link to the story and the original song for free download. This actually happened, and it can happen to you. It's called intellectual property theft.
