Supersonic 49,376 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 The BVMI (German leg of the IFPI) just decided to ban the song "Love On Repeat" by German DJ Dave Ramone from the German Charts for 8 weeks because of investigations confirming that the DJ massively bought his own song through various music outlets for better chart positions, hence maniupulating the charts. Read in German: http://www.musikindustrie.de/news-detail/controller/News/action/detail/news/love-on-repeat-wird-insgesamt-acht-wochen-nicht-fuer-die-offiziellen-deutschen-charts-gewertet/ Not only did he buy his own song massively, he also bought YouTube views, YouTube comments & Facebook likes to keep up the facade of an up and coming star DJ. All of the comments on his video are the same, plus he has less than 800 subscribers His Facebook profile has 37k likes, but he doesn't even get 20 likes on his posts https://de-de.facebook.com/DJDaveRamone/ The last time major chart fraud got exposed in Germany was in 2005 when it was revealed that German producer/manager David Brandes bought back singles of clients Gracia Baur (2005 Eurovision entry for Germany) and Vanilla Ninja (2005 Eurovision entry for Switzerland). Fellow German sisterns, have y'all heard of this tragedy? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea who he is and have never heard the song before But judging on that song in the OP alone, he would've had some sucess in 2012 without buying subscribers or his own song Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
