Change of Plans!!

UPDATE ALERT!! Welcome back guys, as you guys saw in my last post, Carlos and I were trying to get permission for the song “Perfect Day” which is why we emailed their company, Hoku. Soooo… I have some good news, but then again I have some bad news. Which one do you guys want to hear first? Alright, the good news it is! The good news is that the company Hoku finally emailed us back saying that they think our portfolio project sounds great and that they would love to help, but sadly, they aren't the company that owns the rights to that song. They also gave us information on who we should try to contact to ask for access rights, even though they think we can use the song if it doesn't have anything to do commercial distribution. Either way, we want to be 100% sure which is why we started researching once again the information that they gave us.

Take a look:



Here’s Hokus' response




Here’s me emailing Antonina Armatos’ page


For a better look, I've attached the PDFs down below!

As you guys can see, the first person they mentioned in the email was Antonina Armato which our research confirmed is the co-founder of Rock Mafia, a record production/songwriting team. We believe that our main focus should be on contacting Antonina Armato as she is the publisher of the song. In the email, they also mentioned trying to contact Interscope Records, but I think that it is going to take a long time for them to contact us back or they might not even reach out at all due to the fact that it is a large company. So now we are back on track as we emailed Antonina Armato, Interscope Records, and Rock Mafias' webpage. I REALLY hope they get back to us soon because if not, we are going to need a plan B!!

P.S. If you guys want to know more about Antonina Armato I found a really cool page down below!
