Answering all your most asked questions about cover songs, arrangements and remixes. Performing music by other artists you love is fun, allows you to put your own new twist on a well-known song and can expand your audience. But if the music isn’t entirely your own it can also mean there are other considerations: - What is a cover song, verse an arrangement, verses a remix? When can you register your versions with APRA AMCOS? - Do you need permission to perform live or record cover songs? - Can you upload your version of another artist’s music online? - What about remixes? - Can you use another writer’s text or lyrics? - What about the public domain? We'll be covering all the essentials to know when working with other people's words and music.
