It refuses description, allowing only the vague approach of adjectives: dark, light, raw, angelic. Who or what is making these noises? Where are they coming from and what do they point to? What kind of entity can leave such a troubling sonic remnant?

What an astoundingly forward thinking, even handed, real-world-based ruling.
I am kind of surprised. The legal precedent will cause chaos. Eh, maybe not. Other articles are directly addressing that as being not likely... They must not have enough US lawyers over there...

Yes. There was panic on the streets tonight. It's a real game changer.
This is the same method MJ used when he was working on Anthony Marinelli's Thriller.

Did you sample all the things?

Not much interest in this particular example of plagiarism but weren't hip-crap producers such as JZ once known for creating and selling 'beats' ?
I don't exactly know what that means, but it seems to me 'the beat' was 'the' most fundamental part of hip-crap (besides the spiel itself) . Considering this idea, it seems to me Hutter may have a point.

You disqualified yourself anyway to tell others they are disrespectful or even better what is "true" so it doesn't' matter.resistent wrote:Again disrespectfulmurnau wrote:Yep, exactly. That is what this court members should do.resistent wrote:That not true and disrespectful. Go and dig some keynote arbitrations ...murnau wrote:This court is a bunch of idiots
It doesn't matter anyway but in your case especially.
Whoever wants music instead of noise, joy instead of pleasure, soul instead of gold, creative work instead of business, passion instead of foolery, finds no home in this trivial world of ours.

im just going to put here what i wrote on facebook about this yesterday:
come on kraftwerk...what are you going to do...sue every hip hop and freestyle band ever?
we all know those genres are entirely based on kraftwerk samples. especially freestyle, which unlike hip hop never moved on to more original stuff. kraftwerk was ripped off more than the amen break...it never hurt them. get over it already...its been almost 40 years.
just take the compliment.
to which my buddy responded:
they made money off a tour of robots playing their music, didnt they? Fates been kind enough
yes...fate has been kind enough i think.

It absolutely is. Without it culture and innovation would slow down massively. I've heard samples of my music a number of times. It's just gives me a wry smile and a warm fuzzy feeling to be part of the big picturet3toooo wrote:...and argue that stealing is a form of culture?

interesting... but i don't particularly agree with the pitchfork author's assertion that it's bieber/skrillex getting the raw end of the deal ... if all she wanted as a writing credit, they probably should have taken that opportunity before it became some court-case/settlement issue.
just listen to the original and the skrillex produced bieber tune ... skrillex was at best, very heavily 'inspired'.. inspired enough to give a writing credit to her, imo. if it goes before a jury they (skrillex/bieber) will lose, for absolute sure - no amount of 'oh, but the pitch of the last note is different' will convince a jury of lay people that skrillex didn't just take the idea from dienel.
whether skrillex, or musicians in general, should be allowed to do this is not what I'm commenting on - but to me it's pretty clear that skrillex copied dienels... and perhaps maddeningly for dienels, did a better job with it.
