I read your description before I made the first comment to you.
Anyway, you state in your description that it is a cover; A cover means: you created your interpretation of someone else work, but created it all by you. I started listening to the track and I hear different instruments and a voice while you mention YOU recorded it, based on that I assume YOU as in only you, no other individuals since you didn't mention anything about that. Now, it doesn't really feel very legit at my end, when a single person plays different instruments and does the voice all at the same time. So, this gives for me a red flag, or at least an orange flag.
Also, you used two tags to the post, of which one of them is 'remix'. A remix means: you took some other material and created some new work from it. This conflicts with the statement in your description that it is a cover. Now, a in a previous comment in this chain of comments, I took the approach you take the original material of someone else, and added something to it, to make it a remix. With that in mind, I commented to you that when re-using some material of someone else, you need their permission to do so.
All in all, I still don't know what you created: A cover? A remix?
I think it is perfectly fair to say that a cover can be a remix of a song, for example you could make your own representation of the song, changing parts as you see fit your taste or style better, it isnt exactly a true cover, but more a remix of the original version with all parts rerecorded by you. I think both tags are appropriate, from a personal standpoint.
You are allowed to use every tag you want that is relevant to your post. I have nothing against you using remix. I simple pointing out to you, what I pointed out to you in other comments.
EDIT: sorry, I thought you were the guy I had the whole chat with. We dont know what the reality is what @thomasrobertgent actually did. Did he re-record everything? I cant believe so. Did he make a remix? Maybe. Did he use existing material from another artists? Maybe? That users is too vague and for me something to not vote for.
I did record everything. Everything on that track was me. I recorded all tracks individually and mixed them in my DAW. Maybe I do need to add more to the description, I will keep this in mind for next time I upload a track, also when I uploaded the track I didn’t see a category for “cover” in the first drop down selection box , the closest thing was “remix” and that just happens to be the first tag that stuck to the track
Explain what you did in the post, that should be enough. Tags: You can use whatever you like, you can create new ones even. The system takes everything :)
Ok cool. Thanks for tips.
You're welcome :)
Thanks , I agree @armageddonparty
