Enjoy.

FAQs:
Q: I am unable to monetise my video on YouTube/I am getting copyright strikes on my videos as your music is under copyright by "xxxx" TuneCore etc. What do I do?
A: I get this all the time. If you ever get copyright claims/strikes or are prevented from monetising videos on YouTube or anywhere else, dispute the claim by stating that the music is under a Creative Commons license and include a link to the original SoundCloud page for the music.

Q: Do I have to ask for your permission to download your instrumentals?
A: Nope. If I have put the instrumental's license under 'Creative Commons', that means you can download the instrumental without permission from me.

Q: What does the 'Creative Commons' license actually mean?
A: 'Creative Commons' license means you can download and use, however you want, without permission from the owner (me). 'Creative Commons' license can allow different and varied amount of rights to the public, e.g., when the license states so, you can even remix, cover, or build upon an instrumental itself if you wish. Full rights can be checked by clicking on the 'Creative Commons' icon when you click the title of an uploaded instrumental.

Q: Does that mean I can use your instrumentals in a video or project that I wish to make money/profit financially from?
A: If the license has allowed you to (which is 'Yes' to the majority of the instrumentals), then yup, it certainly does. You can't sell the instrumental itself, but you can use it in an advert, video, or whatever it may be, and still be fully legal in making money from however you've used the instrumental.

Q: What if your instrumental is a cover or reinterpretation with no vocals of an existing, copyrighted song; can I still download it and it still be legal? And can I use that instrumental, sing over the top of it and make money from doing that; would I still be legal?
A: Well, no; not really, as I don't own the full rights to allow the public to do as they please with the instrumental. Can you make money from it in any way? Absolutely not. This is where things get a little more serious. If I do not own the rights to the song, and you don't either, that means you have absolutely no rights to make money off someone else's work; unless they've stated otherwise. You must gain permission or obtain a license to make money from reinterpretation/cover instrumentals of copyrighted songs.

Q: Hold up. You're telling me I can download your instrumentals, feature it in an advert, project, whatever, to make profit/money from, AND get to do it for free? Where's the small print I'm missing here?
A: No small print, and no secret conditions. The only condition for this whole thing to work is that you MUST give credit. For example, you've made a video on YouTube with an instrumental(s) of mine featured that you wish to monetise: Credit must then be given in an adequate form e.g., Music by David Hyde in the video itself as an annotation or in the video, or in the description of the video. Failure to give adequate credit for the music is in violation of the license, to which I hold the right to take the video down, or mute the video, unless you have subsequently given credit.

Change Underground (CU) is an independent dance music platform dedicated to uncovering the next generation of underground electronic artists and amplifying voices often overlooked by mainstream media.

Founded in 2013, CU emerged as a response to elitism and corporatisation in the global dance music industry. Our goal has always been simple: create a space where emerging DJs, producers, and labels can be discovered, celebrated, and critiqued with fairness, transparency, and insight.

Over the past decade, CU has established itself as the go-to independent dance music platform for exclusive premieres, artist interviews, in-depth reviews, and analytical commentary on global club culture. From techno and house to experimental electronic subgenres, CU provides a comprehensive lens on the sounds shaping the underground scene today.

Our editorial mission goes beyond music: we are committed to ethical journalism, cultural inclusivity, and social accountability within the dance community. By shining a light on both the creative and systemic aspects of electronic music, CU ensures that artists, promoters, and audiences remain informed and connected.

CU also functions as a barometer for the global underground, highlighting emerging trends, socially conscious movements, and innovative artistic practices. By supporting CU, PRs, labels, and agencies align themselves with a platform that represents integrity, independence, and influence in electronic music media.

Through our curated content, CU connects listeners to artists’ stories, labels’ missions, and scenes worldwide. Whether it’s vinyl-only techno releases, Berlin warehouse culture, or next-generation DJ talent, CU gives audiences a trustworthy source for discovery, while offering artists and industry professionals visibility and credibility.

As the leading independent dance music platform, CU continues to define what responsible, informed, and progressive electronic music journalism looks like. Our commitment is to preserve the spirit of the underground while providing a hub where innovation, diversity, and dialogue can flourish.
