Hi Flowerhead Music,

I'm an indie developer working on a "cozy" arcade flight simulator called Pocket Pilot. I recently found your "Somewhat Good" series (specifically the Beach and Forest packs) and I think they fit the relaxed atmosphere of my game perfectly. I would love to use your tracks!

I have a specific question regarding YouTube: I recently had a bad experience with a copyright claim from a distributor (HAAWK) using another artist's music, which blocked my devlog. I want to make sure that my future players and streamers can share gameplay of Pocket Pilot on YouTube or Twitch without getting automated claims or losing their monetization.

Is your music registered in the Content ID system? Also, please let me know the exact way you’d like to be credited in the game's credits.

Thanks for the amazing music!

Hiya VS!

Thanks for wanting to use my music!

Sorry to hear about your bad experience with copyright claims. There's alot of bad actors out there. 

So I upload all my songs unto streaming platforms, but I do not register them with Content ID. I mostly upload them on streaming platforms to exactly avoid the issue of someone else uploading them and registering them with Content ID, so there should be no problems. 

You don't need to credit, but if you want to you can just put SomeWhatGood by Flowerhead :)

Happy game devving!

(also send a link here when youre done with the game so i can go play it 👀)

Hi flowerhead!

Thank you so much for getting back to me and for being so understanding! It is a huge relief to know there won't be any Content ID issues. We really appreciate how you handle your uploads to protect creators from bad actors.

We will absolutely include "SomeWhatGood by Flowerhead" in the game's credits—it's the least we can do!

The game is called Pocket Pilot, a cozy flight sim about restoring a polluted island. Our Steam page is already live if you want to take a peek: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4408940/Pocket_Pilot/

I will definitely drop another message here when our playable demo is out so you can give it a try. Thanks again for the support and the great music!

Best, VS Virtual Style
