THIS IS NOT AN ORIGINAL WORK OF MINE, it's a song by Patricia Taxxon from her album Gelb that I downloaded, slammed into my DAW, increased the bpm by about 2% and pitch shifted one semitone up.

@Patricia_Taxxon  is an amazing musical artist who makes nice experimental and/or hyperpop works, and she's a copyright abolitionist. Nightcore is a remix genre that is often criticized for being just sped up and pitched up versions of their originals.

Think of this as an attempt at an artistic statement: Where is the line between a remix and a plain ripoff? What aspect of me making this should be regarded as art, the "remixing" or this statement I'm typing here? Were it not for Patricia allowing all use of her work freely, should this work fall under fair use for being a satirical piece? I will intentionally leave these questions unanswered.
