I came across this article today and thought some of you may find this an interesting read...

This is quite a hefty fine, in my opinion.

Although sampling in this instance is illegal, I can't help but feel some sympathy for Djuma Soundsystem.

What I'm curious about is how they will handle the people that sampled Les Djinns...There's a track on Toolroom that uses the same sample, and some lame ripoff that I think was called Les DJ Inns or something.

Itll be interesting to see how the appeal turns out now they have a lawyer on board. It does look like they guy sueing plucked a number out of his arse and the judge just accepted it. I'm sure theres more to it than that though.

They knew full well what they were doing at the time. I don't feel bad for them at all. They were probably better off keeping their mouths shut and hoping the dude who made the original never found out. I mean if you are gonna steal and then lie may as well go all the way lol

Denmark sucks and should burn. It's a well known fact. 1.1 mil NOK for 10 sec clip. Makes perfect sense.

damn... i used to like that track, glad to find the original source of the sample in any case.

take note all you 'ethnic' tech house weiners

To be honest, I didn't realise it was a sample until I read this.

well that's what i mean, i used to play it out and still enjoy it if i hear it randomly. once i heard it getting a brazilian wax.

but i wouldn't play it these days, as i am interested in way too much other music.

What does that have to do with anything in this thread? This type of stuff can happen to anyone, especially if you produce a hit with an unlicensed sample.

It has a lot to do with nef's lifelong vendetta to avenge all BLAXX.

Couldn't you say something along the lines of.... be careful ANYONE who samples EVER?

No, gotta only be those "ETHNIC" samples.


I used to like LES DJINNS too, I DON'T ANYMORE THOUGH.

I'VE GROWN BEYOND IT.
