I havn't found anything that says you can't sample the furby. I just thought it would be funny to use the sounds.. and i'm surprised EDM producers aren't doing it.

You probably also didn't find anything that says you cannot use it to smuggle cocaine, yet that still is forbidden.V0RT3X wrote:I havn't found anything that says you can't sample the furby.
Copyright seems to me (but IANAL) straightforward in this case. The sounds are original recordings, and there's no possibility of public domain, hence you can't copy without the copyright owner's permission. Use in music might be something else, transformative, art, etc., but the artist could still be at risk if they caught the ire of Hasbro. And the risk in this case is: personal bankruptcy, if only because litigation costs can run very high.
Simply put: don't. It's not worth the trouble.

I really like her art style though! That distorted style reminds me of HTDA artwork
