[Dynagroove] Question: Percentage Of Sales Revenue For Remixers

[Lars Behrenroth]

a remix is usually a 'work for hire' situation.
meaning you get paid a certain amount once and never again.
I don't think there's a percentage to determine the remixers fee since 
it depends on popularity, availability etc.

in very rare cases artists get points (or a share) but that's usually 
only the case for big names..
happened a lot in the Armand Van Helden and DJ Tonka rmx era in the late 
90's  ..  usually also only if their rmx would be used as the A1 of the 
12" it'd be released on.
