Maybe what you also think about is that many of the big producers in one genre use the same equipment! And many parts of sounds you hear are "working sounds" that are free useable sounds from the "instruments" that everybody can use and that you find in a lot of songs back!

Okay this is of course not always the reason, sometimes the producers really steal ideas and melodies but defentaly not always!

Ascention - Stasis
sounds very similar to
Blank & Jones - The Nightfly (Transa Remix)

also:
Hi-Gate - Caned and Unable
and
Yomanda - Sunshine (Hi-Gate Remix)

The one I don't like is

Shane - C'est Musique (Armin van Buuren Remix)
John Rees vs Helios - Beta Blocker

Ripped off melodies suck...



And

Lost Tribe - Gamemaster (Original Mix)

has always sounded a lot like

Robert Miles - Children

to me, but both are great tunes.

Kay Cee - Escape and Franchino - 999.

If they're not the same, it is the biggest coincidence in the scene. However there must be something behind this, for example Kay Cee is Franchino or something, because the melodies are the same.

oh god the most anoying thing.. i got this random song sent to me on AG called like "houston we got a problem" or somthing like that.. and it was an exact copy of brainbug - nightmare, with a resolution turned down, and every once in a while a dumb "houston we have a problem" voice.. it made me angry more than anything! they destroyed a good song by brainbug.. and claimed it was theres

how about Abnea - Velvet Moods (Dj Tiesto remix) and paul van dyk vs tilt - rendezvous (quadraphonic).

You guys missed the biggest ones....

Armin's "Communication" = Picotto's "Like This Like That"
PPK's "resurrection" = Luna Park's "Space Melody"
Mario Piu's "Vision" = Blank & Jones's "Nightfly"
Fire & Ice's "Souvenir De Chine" = William Orbit's "Barber's Adagio for Strings"
Pants & Corset's "Sacrilige" = i forgot!

and there are a bunch others, but i have long forgotten. this topic has actually been beat to death over the last year... if you do a search for threads like this you will find a lot.

What? How does THe vision, sound like the Nightfly? Barbers Adagion for strings also sounds like Skip Radiers feat. Jada, but thats only because it does use the same sample! The sample of that tune is actually copyrighted, so it wouldn't be a coincidence if tunes sounded the same as that. THe same with The Clockwork Orange, Cygnus X and Aurelia have sampled that too. (The Orange Theme and Vampries Song)

Well, this has been mentioned a thousand times, but Airwave - Mysteries Of Life and Sasha - Xpander sound very similar. Also Lightforce - Join Me can resemble Robert Miles - Children, although Children is a million times better. I remeber a site calling Join Me Children on steroids

Peace
