Actually, Maire Brennan re-recorded her vocals specifically for Saltwater with new lines, hence his grievance. And the point is that Bracegirdle at least paid for sample clearance on his tracks.
But yes, it is a bit of a non-story. If he thinks there's any money to be made he'll probably sue, as is usually the case, and Mark Knight will surrender a share of royalties or pay a big one-off fee. Has happened a thousand times when a dance record with an uncleared sample becomes big enough to be worth the effort of legal action.
And I still heart this:
Can you still get Live At The Palladium from the TA downloads section? |
Now that you mention it, the bit that was sampled wasn't in the original song by Clannad, so you are correct.
As you said, a pretty unimportant thing still. The bit that was sampled was so minor that there probably isn't a whole lot to the case. I think it all depends on if he can get his label behind it, which all depends on whether or not Mark Knight's song was commercially successful. I know many companies simply attempt to send an NDA telling the "perpetrator" so to speak to remove all instances of the offending product if it's not something that appears to be making a whole lot of money.
One of my original tracks I put up on youtube was removed in some bullshit case because of a voice clip I sampled but I was never personally contacted, presumably because I was not making any money off the track.
