FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DJ Resolution and Respect Music Celebrate the 25th Anniversary of Landmark 2001 R&B Albums with Independent Era 2001

LOS ANGELES, CA, August 2026 — In celebration of the 25th anniversary of one of modern R&B's most influential years, DJ Resolution, in collaboration with Respect Music, proudly presents Independent Era 2001, the latest installment in the long-running Reversion Mixtape Series - an ongoing initiative that has spent years celebrating milestone album anniversaries while raising awareness about music ownership and copyright reversion rights.

The project revisits the unforgettable soundtrack of 2001, featuring music inspired by landmark albums including Aaliyah by Aaliyah, Songs in A Minor by Alicia Keys, Survivor by Destiny's Child, 8701 by Usher, All for You by Janet Jackson, Now by Maxwell, and many other celebrated releases that helped define the sound of R&B in 2001.

More than a celebration of r&b music, Independent Era 2001 continues the mission of the Reversion Mixtape Series by using milestone anniversaries as an opportunity to encourage conversations about artists' rights, music ownership, and the long-term value of creative works.

As many albums from 2001 reach their 25th anniversary, Respect Music hopes to encourage artists to learn more about copyright reversion rights and whether those rights may apply to their own works under U.S. copyright law. The campaign aims to inspire creators to educate themselves about ownership, and seek qualified legal or professional guidance when appropriate.

The Reversion Mixtape Series celebrates the music while reminding creators that understanding ownership is an important part of protecting their legacy. “If these projects encourage even a few artists to learn more about their rights, then we've accomplished something meaningful.” said DJ Resolution.

For years, the Reversion Mixtape Series has paired anniversary mixtapes with educational awareness, celebrating influential recordings while encouraging conversations about copyright, ownership, and preserving artists' legacies for future generations.

🎧 The Grand '92: Why a 33-Year-Old Copyright Law Could Be Hip-Hop's Next Revolution

DJ Resolution's latest mix, The Grand '92, is more than just a nostalgic trip through a golden era of hip-hop it's an essential call to action. Part of the ongoing Reversion Tape Series, this project leverages the power of music to educate legendary artists on a crucial and often-overlooked legal mechanism: the 35-year copyright reversion window.

🗓️ The Magic Number: 35 Years

Why is 1992 the focus, and what does it have to do with today?

In the US, the Copyright Act of 1976 includes a provision that grants authors (artists) a one-time, non-waivable right to terminate a grant of rights after a certain period. For grants executed on or after January 1, 1978, the magic number is 35 years from the date of transfer.

The Problem: Many landmark albums from the early 90s which are foundational to modern music culture were created by artists who signed away their master rights to labels early in their careers.

The Opportunity: Albums released in 1992 will begin to hit their 35-year reversion milestone in 2027. This means the artists who created classics like The Chronic, Don't Sweat the Technique, and Mecca and the Soul Brother can soon file to reclaim the copyrights to their original masters and recordings.

DJ Resolution and Respect Music are using The Grand '92 as an educational siren, reminding the titans of hip-hop that the time to prepare is now. Termination notices must be served on the grantee no less than two and no more than ten years before the effective termination date.

🔊 From Tribute to Tool: How the Mixtape Works

The Grand '92 is meticulously curated to capture the influential, gritty, and soulful sounds that defined the era. But by showcasing these tracks, the mixtape directly highlights the works that are nearing their legal reversion date.

"Artists have shaped the culture we all celebrate. It is time for them to regain ownership of their work,” says DJ Resolution.

By blending the music with the message, the Reversion Tape Series transforms the listening experience into a powerful advocacy tool:

Honoring the Legacy: It pays respect to the culture-defining artists of 1992.

Creating Awareness: It connects fans to the ongoing battle for artist rights.

Driving Action: It urges artists and their teams to consult legal counsel to begin the complex process of filing for termination notices.

"Soul Motion 1970" | 1970 Reversion Tape

“Soul Motion (1970)” Mixtape Revives a Golden Year of Music and Calls on Artists to Reclaim Their Rights

soul motion 1970

For Immediate Release

December 9, 2024 – The Reversion Series is proud to present "Soul Motion (1970)", a stirring new mixtape that transports listeners to the dawn of a decade defined by cultural upheaval, musical innovation, and enduring soul. This release shines a spotlight on classic tracks from 1970—an era when the vibrancy of the late ’60s gave way to a more reflective, socially conscious sound, forever changing the trajectory of popular music.

From the smoky grooves of pioneering funk ensembles to the velvet harmonies of soul groups that rode the Motown-to-Philly transition, the class of 1970 introduced many of the timeless beats and lyrical truths that continue to influence artists today. "Soul Motion (1970)" offers not only a sonic time capsule but also a timely reminder that the creators behind these cherished works can now reclaim the rights to their intellectual property.

A Year of Transformative Sound

1970 marked a turning point in music. While the world was still reeling from the cultural shockwaves of the late ’60s—civil rights movements, social unrest, and global calls for peace—artists channeled those emotions into their recordings. Musicians infused jazz, gospel, and blues influences to produce classic soul and R&B hits that resonated across color lines and continents. It was the year that saw legendary acts redefine what it meant to sing about love, struggle, hope, and identity.

The works showcased in "Soul Motion (1970)" reflect that intense creative ferment. You’ll find heart-stirring ballads, foot-stomping dance numbers, and message-laden anthems, all exuding the warmth and grit that came to define soul music in the early ’70s.

A Pivotal Moment for Artists’ Rights

Under 17 USC 203, authors and composers have the right—35 years after granting their work—to reclaim ownership through a legal process known as reversion. For the Class of 1970, the time to act is now. By sending notices of termination, these artists can regain their copyrights and ensure that the fruits of their creativity remain theirs to steward.

Today’s streaming-dominated landscape poses new challenges for creators, as older songs are rediscovered, remixed, and sampled for new generations. Regaining control over one’s art is not just about financial benefit; it’s about shaping legacy, safeguarding authenticity, and building a foundation for generational wealth.

Beyond the Music: A Movement for Equity

“Soul Motion (1970)” is part of the ongoing Respect Music Campaign, dedicated to educating creators and fans alike about the importance of reversion rights. While debates continue in Congress over fairer streaming payouts and shorter copyright terms, this mixtape stands as a testament to the power of knowledge, advocacy, and collective action.

By listening to these timeless tracks, fans engage with a pivotal cultural moment—an era when soul music became a universal language of empathy and empowerment. Today, as we urge eligible artists to reclaim what is rightfully theirs, we honor their original vision and creativity, preserving these songs so that new generations can experience them as their authors intended.

Celebrate and Support

“Soul Motion (1970)” is more than a nostalgic nod to a golden age. It’s a call to celebrate the past while forging a fairer future. We invite listeners, journalists, historians, and music lovers to join us in respecting the artistry, encouraging rightful ownership, and reviving the spirit that made 1970 a milestone in musical history.

Rising Stars: Meet DJ Resolution of Los Angeles

Voyage LA Magazine

From a young age growing up in Germany, I’ve always been passionate about music. As a teenager, I loved sharing songs, creating playlists, and burning CDs for my friends. I would translate English songs into German so my friends could understand the lyrics. I was always collecting songs, cassettes & CD albums.

As a young adult, I had a strong desire to be my own boss, work for myself, and be independent. I moved to the USA to fulfill that dream, realizing that becoming a DJ was my calling. Later, I started to learn about DJ history and was inspired by DJ Kool Herc’s legendary block parties in the 70s. Learning about the culture and history of DJing inspired me to become a better DJ.

Now, I provide soundtracks for many corporate events and nightclubs. Some highlights include DJing at SoFi Stadium, NFL private events, women’s retreats, and iconic Los Angeles hotels such as the Fairmont Century Plaza, the Maybourne Hotel, and Beverly Hilton, as well as weddings and clubs throughout Los Angeles. My mission is always to create unforgettable moments.

My passion for music led me to study and successfully major in music business studies, which led to working with the Respect Music organization. As the lead DJ at the Respect Music Foundation, I support emerging artists and help raise awareness for legendary artists to regain music ownership in the current music industry state.
