BT Lawsuit

taken from http://blog.myspace.com/mrbt

but personally, a train wreck, four huge legal wars, that alone have not only eaten my savings, but have put me so far in debt it may take me years to recover….that is if I escape bankruptcy. One lawsuit is ongoing. There is a guy in New York, that claims ONE loop on my sample CD (a one bar loop) is his. A composer used it in a Pfizer commercial and he heard it, say’s it’s his (I made the loop in Reason in about 5 minutes, and furthermore after paying a musicologist 10,000$, found out that it’s the first beat in the book “Intro to drumming”, literally the first beat they teach you when you learn to play drums). Well how’s this for the American legal system…..

He is suing me for 10 MILLION DOLLARS.

Not joking. He’s also suing East/West the company that distributed my CD for 10 million dollars and Pfizer etc. We have done FFT analysis of the loop, showed the judge waveforms, etc…..does not matter, in America, you can sue anyone for anything. Here’s the kicker…..I have to pay for my own defense, and this guy has some ambulance chaser attorney working on a percentage with nothing better to do than try to force a settlement with a huge corporation, and some guy that just loves making music and sounds, so he can sit on his ass and smoke weed all day. I swear sometimes I want to renounce my citizenship.















I hope he wins this retarded suit! BT is too much of a pioneer to go down over some retard's desire for money
