heres a scenario:
an up and coming producer sells a beat to an up and coming indie label for $2000 and a 2% royalty on the slrp on records sold. the producer keeps his copyright for the music while the label gets one for the lyrics. so the should be owed mechanical royaltys on units sold as composer right?
anyway, the song sells 50,000 downloads at $1 per and the net is about $ .60. the producer has 1 song on a 14 track album and that album sells 100,000 units.
how much is the producer owed? is he entitled to half (at least on the single) or what? thanx in advance.
also for what its worth. let's say the producer has a record one clause.
