I cant wait to watch this!
It’s long overdue…
I say sue all of the samplings which are easily noticable. It’s my time and sweat, and some ‘creative’ takes it and builds a crappy shopping mall on it… it’s not fair at all.
If it’s not noticable, well, that means the creative really added a lot and made something completely of his/hers own… it should be allowed in this case.
Personally, I’m also not OK with reproduction of iconic licks and bits of melody, arpeggios etc. I’m fed up with zillions of interpretations of “Every Breath You Take”. Some of them really disgusts me.
Oh well, I feel better now… all I needed was a little venting, I guess. haha
