adventures of mascarah.

I've just begun a new decade. Sigh.

I have always wanted to be "a writer" but I'm lost somewhere in the prologue...whittling away at a story I may never tell.

Likes: pop culture. my chihuahua. architecture. modern art. elizabeth street. contemporary designer apparel. food. travel. foreign films. speakeasys. live music. politics. hot sauce. surprises. running in the rain. strangers. wednesdays. fearlessness...and 100s of other random things... maybe even you.

A southerner by birth, northerner by the grace of God, I'm simply a nyc gal who is lost somewhere on my constant exploration of the city and the life,love, and pursuit found within it.

They may benefit the record labels or the artists or both, but that doesn’t change the fact that they are illegal.

Mike Hudack: Vimeo Sued By Capitol Records Over Lip Dubs (via katieschenk)

I agree with Mike. As an ex-girlfriend and friend to many a musician, I know how frustrating labels can be. As a marketer I know that they way the labels are doing business is not viable in the current marketplace and that they have to change. And hopefully soon. I also blog songs (and all kinds of stuff) all the time that likely isn’t kosher, but all of this doesn’t change the fact that until the system changes, legal boundaries exist. Vimeo will (and should) settle.

Ps - I’m surprised Disney didn’t sue first over that one Lil’ Mermaid lip dub

    This is BS. You guys made that song cool, not Harvey. Capitol must be either really greedy or broke…
