Getter Doubles Down on Twitter Rant & Calls Out Excision for Ripping Off Artists

Getter clarifies he doesn’t care if Excision uses ghostwriters, he just wants him to pay the artists more.

If you’re an avid fan of electronic music then you have probably seen the tweets, memes, and jokes from Getter’s posts about Excision trending on Twitter. To recap, Getter reposted a tweet from Excision’s Bass Canyon hype video accusing him of ripping off Space Laces’ “Vaultage 003” track.

He then posted a side-by-side comparison video of the original track and the one used in the recap to show that they are undoubtedly similar. His main point was that Excision does not properly pay or credit the artists he collaborates with.

just so we're clear:

Getter explained that many of the so-called collaborations with Excision weren’t a team effort at all. He claimed that oftentimes he would hear a fellow artist’s track before its release but when it dropped, Excision’s name also appeared in the credits.

After staying quiet throughout the feud, Space Laces finally responded with a statement noting he doesn’t ghost produce and is credited on all Excision collaborations. Though he mentions he struggles with whether he is flattered or feels taken advantage of with how often people attempt to replicate his sound. At the end of his statement, he says, “I just want credit for the work that I’ve done… I appreciate the friends who have my back and thank you for always sticking up for me.” 

i just wanted to clarify that i didnt call out @Excision for having ghostwriters. idgaf about that. i called him out for not paying his ghostwriters enough + ripping off other peoples unreleased songs

A few days later after EDM Twitter calmed down, Getter decided to reiterate that the purpose of his initial tweet wasn’t about Excision using ghostwriters. It was about calling him out for not fairly paying or ripping off artists he works with.

People began to question why he would bring up the topic again, but Getter insisted that it’s a larger problem that should be addressed and isn’t talked about because Excision is the monopoly head of dubstep. 

see this is why im mentioning it again. yall WON'T SEE THE REAL PROBLEM! you want it to be over and you want me to STFU because you love Dr dino, i get it. but the problem is as prominent and REAL as it was when i first called him out https://t.co/rcBpNb6bGp

We won’t know if these accusations are true until more artists come forward to reveal more of what happens behind the scenes of our favorite tracks. Though as Getter mentioned before the chance of artists speaking up is slim because it could mean risking the chance of playing one of Excision’s many shows. 

Do you think the game of dubstep will change to give producers more autonomy or will there always be secrets behind the favorite tracks we love?
