From what I hear on the grapevine, the 'Fixation' cover situation hasnt gone unnoticed and isn't going to be left to slide, actions will be taken..

Only if you don't know any better. Some of us do...

Oh come on. As if people didn't sample, remix and remake tracks in the 90s. There were countless uncleared samples, unacknowledged copies and rehashes of the same few ideas back then too.

classic example

1989 : Blackbox - Ride On Time

news flash. artists sample other artists work.

go check out prydz's whole catalog and see how many "originals" you can find.

don't even get me started on P.Diddy or Puff Daddy or whatever the fuck he calls himself now (if we're going down the broader music spectrum).

i guess it's better than recycling or re-arranging the same sounds in a different patterns...

meh who cares. Mark Knight is not relevant. And I've never heard anything not shitty from Funkagenda. They have only slightly more credibility than Deadmau5.

D Ramirez + Mark Knight - Colombian Soul.

Mark Knight has seriously stepped up the ladder of being not liked this year, very quickly. Think this trend started with an immature off-his-tits performance at Godskitchen in January (Acapella of 'Where's Your Head At' at 4 o clock for about 4 minutes, wow), and then some insulting efforts in Amnesia, and now all of these pile of shit blatant rip off tunes are about, and everyone is caning them in city centre's because STILL no one can get past '99 trance.

Mark "This took 15 minutes" Knight annoys me.

I'd go as far as saying Funkagenda are worse than Deadmau5. I've never heard anything of theirs that has been enjoyable.

Everybody samples from one another, that is fine.

Sample= sound, a short one.

Not a whole freaking tune!

There is a diffrence between copying samples then copy the whole SYNTH and Melody together.

so all those who cry about - everybody do it bla bla bla... yes people sample but not 1 to 1 copy.

The only diffrence in this track then andyling is the start the end, and the sample (which mark prob' worked over time to get it the same sound in order not to credit andy) and the melody is 100% the same.

And don't call me a newbie i've been here before most of you all.

In keeping with my tradition of sticking my nose in where I don't belong and not helping anything, I have to point out that double posting is a serious noob move. I shall now back out of the room.

Exactly my point on mark knight copy.

Tons of copy-paste "artists" nowadays...

Posted by Trancealot on Dec-30-2008 03:40:

Tracks that sound like other tracks.. (not done by same producer)

Posted by BlueSky on Dec-30-2008 07:22:

At least they could include Andy Ling in the credits...

Posted by Kris G on Dec-31-2008 00:23:

When I first heard this I thought... urgh, cover... but are you telling me there are NO credits to Andy Ling anywhere?!?

Posted by josh rising on Dec-31-2008 18:51:

why didn't they just do it as...

andy ling - fixation (funkagenda & mark night '09 mix)? or whatever? who knows, it might have gotten even MORE promotion that way. and it's the right way to do it. lame.

Posted by BlueSky on Apr-11-2009 14:46:

So what happened? Did Andy Ling bring a suit against them?

Posted by woscar on Apr-12-2009 08:12:

Every single song steals the melody from Andy Ling - Fixation

Check out Tiesto - Fly to see what I mean
