So the question is, did you plagiarize the track, or are you pretending to be a long gone grifter? I thought I'd give you a heads up before you find out through someone else. + + i am going to be so completely honest with you- I have no clue what you're talking about. hand to god, i've never heard of paul lawler or APM before today. what i can tell you is that i used a [shitty, defunct music program](https://archive.nytimes.com/bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/06/10/aviary-introduces-free-online-music-software/) that came prepackaged with a bunch of crappy royalty free sound bytes that I played around with until something sounded good. i was also 13 at the time and was just excited to contribute to a piece of media that I held in such high regard. i don't make money off of it anymore, since the label is basically dead, and what I did make only amounted to about... 350 dollars. that's all there is to it, really. -- cgit 1.3.0-6-gf8a5
