I think you have to change something by a percentage for it not to be considered plagiarist here. I may be wrong.
However I wouldn't worry about this unless you really intend to release these commercially for your own profit. For instance I've remixed Halcyon and On and On by Orbital, and Breathe by Telepopmusik, and I don't intend to sell them at all. If I decided to though, I could just do it as a white label bootleg thing under a diff name. There's ways to get around all the copyright stuff. I dunno if ethics come to play that much but if you're doing white labels it's more about releasing the tune than about getting paid innit? So in that light I think it'd be ok. Best leave the final answer to more informed heads on the list though, this is just my take. respect. ~a -----Original Message----- From: Pranev Sharma [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, February 14, 2003 9:31 AM To: Drum & Bass Arena Discussion List Subject: [dnb-prod] Copyright/sampling issues hey there. ive been away from the list for a while and thats cos i took the brilliant advice and went away and worked so hard in my bedroom studio. anyway, on the issues of sampling. if u sample a tune but its been messed using plug ins etc do u still have to give credit to the original artist? how much do u usually have to pay to clear the samples and .. how do u get in touch with the people? u need a load of written stuff to say its cleared and little unsigned producers like me cant get that done. also if its from an "obscure" tune and u cant find the original artist, what do you do? confusing issue here for me. builidin up tunes is hard work. id just like to know how much can u "rip" (by that i mean sample cos i cant get a sample to change sound form in soundforge - maybe a few tips on that) off a tune?
