It's claiming against "The Lion's Roar" - the Wintermute theme tune introduced with Wintermute Redux, which I've mixed with game trailer and game play footage for the intro to my Wintermute playthrough videos.

@Raphael van Lierop please could you have someone clarify if we can use that theme in videos or not - many thanks.

We have the rights to use this music in the game, but that doesn't necessarily extend to it being shared in videos. It's up to the copyright holder to grant you permission to include the song in your own content.

It's a great song by First Aid Kit and they have their own music and videos on YouTube, so I am not surprised it got tagged.

YouTube is pushing people away from their service by this militant copywrite crap. Content creators are finding it more difficult to meet the increasing unreasonable criteria imposed on them by YouTube. 

I'm hearing rumors that new/alternative video services will be replacing YouTube before too long. It's too bad, too. YouTube used to be a good platform.
