How does one find out who owns the publishing and copyright rights on a given piece of music? It must be online somewhere?
Mr. Blast calls - I'm here.
information about performing rights in the UK can be found
here. Although as far as I'm aware of they do not offer the possibility for online research. the same thing in USA is called
ascap and
gema in Germany. Both with online search options.
And now have fun in detecting Mr. Eldritchs copyrights.
P.S. copyright expires 70 years after the death of the owner. But you don't just need to clear the copyright, you need to buy the sync rights too.
Put their heads on f*cking pikes in front of the venue for all I care.
