remixes fall under the Fair Use doctrine, and everyone assumes that all this VC-funded atmosphere around Section 230 & feeds & ad money all just works as such.
Trent Reznor to Johnny Cash singing "Hurt" is transformation, as is sampling & photoshopping & all that silly fun.
no, what happened with "clanking off OP" is more like issuing a Bowie Bond as some third party that's a fan of David Bowie, with no other attributive quality to his production of his music https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celebrity_bond (on top of its Moxie Fan Token that already existed)
so, reasonably speaking, these situations automatically revert, wholly, to OP. anything less, without license or consent, would more resemble extortion.
