Best thing is to ask for permission of Radiohead, you can try to phone his label or something. I think that's the best thing to do.

To be honest you may be better off getting them pressed as anonymous white labels. I'm sure I
read an articel once where Thom Yorke from radiohead said he really dislikes dance music,
hence the 'Wonky' version of street spirit never madeit to a major label as they wouldn't clear the sample.

Having it pressed without permission would be incredibly unethical.

That song is property of Radiohead. Not you. If you sample from it, you need their permission before you can use it. It's wrong to make money off someone else's work. If you can't get permission, then you're just going to have to file the track away as a great experiment, and move on.

I majorly disagree with Skytribe on this one. Get it pressed - most pressers wont care unless they are large corporations. Stick it on CDR or something if they wont! Tiesto remixed a radiohead song pretty recently and they wont clear it - so I dont think you stand a chance to be honest, not legally anyway.

Dance music is all about sampling, and unless you have literally stolen the entire tune without much effort to 'make it your own' then I say at least get a test pressing and see which DJs like it!

Cheers mossy, reckon i will get it pressed on white label. Iv totally changed it and added 20 times more stuff than they actually ever put into the original so fuck it. Besides its a good tune n i aint doing it for the money, just want other people to play productions which iv done, is that so wrong?

Not at all. In fact, if you don't want to make any money from it, domn't forget to post some samples for us greedy leaches to listen to.

Its the 2grand rule brother...look it up. They cant do shit to you if you dont make over 2 thousand bucks from the record. And if they do something to you. Then just pay the fine with the money you made. Then if they make a big deal out of it...well then thats free promotion for you. Man people do shit like that all of the time.
Alot of white lables are made just for that reason. Anyway. Go for it. Ya only Live Once! Take Chances! Its the only way to know for sure.

There's no such thing.

Stealing someone else's music and using it for your own benefit is copyright infringement, pure and simple. (Yes, obviously, we're leaving out fair-use laws here, but sampling and remixing is not considered 'fair use').

How would you feel if someone took your music, sampled it, and then started making money off it without your permission? Hmm?

It's illegal, and unethical. Whether or not the dance music industry has traditionally used uncleared samples doesn't make it right.

go for the whites, i would even write my email addy on the vinyl
