Re: ? about looping technique...(short post)

Hey Matthew,

I'm in a project now where I'm using a lot of sampling, and looping.  I
haven't found as much on the subject as I would like, but there is some
information about the legal crap at

http://www.brokersys.com/~musiclaw/topics.html

there is a link about sampling there that I found informative.  I think the
whole thing is wide open...you can do what you want (within reason), but
there is no law as to how much the publisher can charge if you put it out
your work for sale.  I went sample happy, and now, I've been completely
creatively stiffled just trying to cover my butt on the legal end.  Oh
yeah, if you want to read an interview with the Dust Brothers that talks a
lot about these issues check out:

l

most of the stuff on sampling is on page 3-5 or so.  If you're not familiar
with the Dust Brothers, then go out right this instant and buy Beck -
Odelay.!
