[Kagetori]

Hey there everyonepony! I've just found out about this place and it's pretty great!
Anyways, recently I've started a Touhou circle to make music, mostly dedicated to Touhou, but I also did some Pony related stuff (actually, more of my stuff is Pony related than Touhou so far) and no one really listens to anything I make... like, literally, no one with the exception of three people who have commented on the list of things I've made, so with that said, eye'm hoping people here will listen. Sooo, here is all the music I've made;

Sorry if I'm doing this wrong or something...
but I bet no one is going to hear this all anyways, I mean, it all sucks anyways.
If anyone DOES see this though, hopefully someone can answer this question;
is it okay to make money off of MLP "remixes"? Sorry if that's a stupid question, but I know you can with Touhou arranges so I'm not completely sure.

Technically, it's illegal because it counts as copyright infringement (whether you make money or not), but it seems that Hasbro generally doesn't care as long as you don't make too much money.

Oh, great... >_>
Well... I'll probably just separate pony stuff then.

Yeah, I'd say focus on trying to gain revenue from original works, as opposed to remixes. Granted, if you market your remix as a cover, you just have to pay a very small percentage to the original composer for each copy (album, mp3, etc.) that you sell. Having released my own original cover of Oingo Boingo's "Little Girls" with Pandora's Toybox, I am familiar with this sort of thing.

Been listening through your rearrangements and the original tune, and have found them pleasant listening, so far!
