Undawnted's Summer Time Music 2025 is Heating Up with New Hits by DL Mullan!

Are you ready for a music revolution? 

DL Mullan of Undawnted and Sonoran Dawn Studios is right there with you. For years, the music industry has been ruled by corporations, experimenting on the population. From sexualized, violent rap lyrics and pop songs that have suicidal and other phrases inserted for no reason but to social engineer young people. 

Such as:

“Livin' La Vida Loca”
Ricky Martin

She'll make you live her crazy life, but she'll take away your pain
Like a bullet to your brain

Who wants to sing-along to: “like a bullet to your brain”? 

Can't artists do better? 

_____

The Problem 

Artists can create better music, but no one will pay them to do the right thing. No corporation, NGO, or government can make money off a stable, content populace. 

If you are having a bad day, corporatized music isn't designed to better mental health.

If you want to rebel, the gang violence pushed in lyrics is just going to end you up in prison. 

We need a solution to stop the for-profit pipeline living-off/creating people's suffering. 

_____

The Solution

As consumers, we can change the industry, one song and artist at a time. Find new artists and their creations on SoundCloud and other apps. 

Poetry is personal. 

Shouldn't your music be too?

Don't just change your music... change your whole vibe! 

DL Mullan has been a musical wonder and performer for decades. With her classical training (e.g., competitive orchestra, concert choir, band, talent shows, and award-winning poetry), as well as her grandfather's jazz pianist genes, she takes A.I. interpretation to a whole new level.

Listen for yourself.

 

Music as it was meant to be written...

 

 

Why Certain Creative Writes will not be Published on YouTube

Is this stupid or what? Creators of art, poetry, and prose are censored without a jury trial of our peers.

As I was making a list of poems that I wanted to create videos for, I had to strike out a few. One is Imaginary Suicide. Because we have not raised adults in this country and around the world, words are banned. 

People are terrified of words.

I'm sorry: what? 

Because adults are scared of the alphabet and dictionary, corporations are telling me what my rights are? Perhaps, it is time that we have the return of actual education, and in the process, "unalive" corporations. In legal terms, a corporation has personhood. Yet, I have never seen a corporation go to prison. Have you? So the definition of corporation needs to change, as well as to underline that to do business in our country (the United States) said entities (education and corporations) need to be neutral in all political and social matters.

I am tired of elites using their corporate power, wealth, and extreme belief systems to skew the electorate with disinformation and misinformation, on the right and the left. The first step is to disallow corporations from participating in our elections and culture. These entities are to sell goods and services, not tell me how to run my life. Under the Constitution, that is my right. 

Until voters understand how their rights are being stripped by foreign individuals, and the intelligence apparatus, through the flexing of corporate power, then the banning, shadow-banning, and censorship will continue. 

Censorship of poems like Imaginary Suicide:

2 Reader's Choice Nominations

"Beautifully expressed. It comes as no surprise that in a world structure as this one finds oneself in a complex emotional equation as this, until it runs its course and takes a turn at some point."

"So real to me, which is a sad reflection though true. I agree...you nailed this!" 

"Very imaginative. This is innovative, an interesting perspective and packed with emotion. Your use of language and word choices give this impact." 

"Imaginary suicide, what a subject matter for a great creative write, its full with real emotions as are great creative writes Well done and well wrote."

Shouldn't we be demanding the end of censorship? 

Have an imaginative day.

Licensing in the Digital Age: Royalty Free Versus Copyright Free

As a creator, I want to produce as much of my own content as I can. There are instances where that idea becomes impossible. Instrumentals is one of those current challenges.

I can write, craft, and publish my cover art, stories, and websites, but sometimes even a creator needs a helping hand. Since I would like to produce meaningful and engaging book trailers and presentations for my Undawnted Channel on YouTube (Please subscribe!), I have endeavored to use other musician's instrumentals to assist me. 

I have read numerous license agreements, and have purchased some music that you have already heard. Still, the royalty and copyright issues are murky at best. You can use X song if you follow these guidelines, royalty free. Yes, but I can use them for my commercial, known as a book trailer? 

The next challenge is: who is being paid for the music? The three songs I have bought so far were paid to one person, not the artist who created the song. So, I went on a fact finding mission to cut out the middleman. I emailed a couple of musicians on a site to see what royalty free means to them, and do I need to buy a lifetime license from them? Important questions. 

In the coming years, I may have to sit down and write a few songs on the computer. Yes, I have written songs in the past. With a grandfather who was a piano tuner and mover, as well as a jazz pianist, music runs in my veins. I spent a year in competitive orchestra and two years in band, playing the violin. When a string instrument was unfavorable to playing in a high school marching band, I opted for four years of choir.

Until my health supports more activity besides editing, reading, and writing, I will continue to be bounced around, uncertain as to how I can use "royalty free music." I rather purchase from the creator to ensure a legal license than using middlemen. I hope that the prices are within my budget. 

I do not want to cheat anyone, but I also like to eat. 

What it comes down to is the fine print. What does it actually say versus how I am interpreting it? 

Legalese, anyone? 

Have a great and wonderful day.
