samples use

[Guest gnomox]

i should wanna know..........

 

do the artist have to pay something to use all that samples from movies etc.....?

[Guest Raider]

I don't think so... how should they, the copyright-owners, know of it?

[Colin OOOD]

Anyone using copyright material (eg samples of speech or music, lyrics, melodies, etc) in their own work must, by law, be granted a license to do so by the owners of that copyright. But most people in psy trance don't bother.

especially since the owners of a certain copyright, for example a movie, know that they wouldn't get any money from the artist involved, since psy artist don't make that much money.

 

it would be different if your track would be more commercial and makes a lot of money, because then the owner of the copyright would try to cash in. but since this will hardly ever be the case with psy trance, artist will use the samples and the owners of the copyright will never know, and even if so will not bother.

To give you an idea, it cost DeLaSoul over $100,000 to get the rights to all the samples they used on De La Soul Is Dead.
