Subject: permission to use music

Hi Corinne,

we are currently in our second year of college studying media and our task for this year is to create a music video. After listening to your tracks on www.unsigned.com we found a track we really like called Therapy. We thought that the track would be suitable to use for our project. We were wondering if you would grant us the permission to use one of your songs as part of our project to soundtrack over our video, we would greatly appreciate if you would allow this.

Thank You

Problems and Issues Encountered

After a long wait for a reply from a message to the artists music we wanted to use, we still didn't recieve a formal written reply from the artist via myspace. We then tried to contact the artist via the record label RCA Records but after numerous attempts through hotmail the e-mail failed to deliver. Due to time being valuable and having deadlines to meet, we thought that researching other unsigned artists would be appropriate. After browsing for unsigned artists on www.unsigned.com , we came across an artist called Corinne Vielle. Her music genre was r&b and we thought that using creative mise-en-scene such as costume and make up along with location would be good to use for the track which we liked. We contacted Corinne via e-mail, using the address provided on her website, within 12 hours we recieved a positive reply permitting us to use her track. I will later upload the e-mail which we recieved.

Permission for usage of track

RCA RECORDS,

A few months ago we contacted one of your artists: Kesha. At this point the artist was still unsigned and we found her music on www.purevolume.com. We asked if it would be possible to use one of her records, Tik Tok, for our A level media project. We later received a reply from the artist confirming with "rad that'd be dope" which we assumed from looking at her myspace page was a positive response.

Due to the song being currently broadcast on the radio, we wondered if this was still possible and if we would need further written permission from your label before we could use the track. We would greatly appreciate if you as a record label could contact us with an answer as the track may not be permitted for use. We would appreciate if you could contact us as soon as possible as we have deadlines to meet for our project.

Many Thanks
