Originally posted by DigiNut No, actually, you're not, because he only calls it "sampling" in order to make it sound legitimate. It's actually nothing of the sort, it's more like a really bad mash-up, ripping large sections from 3 or 4 different songs and chucking them into eJay or something, adding no original material whatsoever, and then calling it his own track. It's also wholly irrelevant how house music was shaped by sampling. That was decades ago, when the copyright laws hadn't caught up. Simply because such things were acceptable back then does not mean that they are still acceptable today. Today, you ask for permission before ripping anything longer than about half a second (i.e. anything recognizable) and co-opting it for your own track. Now can we stop with this? It's getting annoying with all of these people who don't know the back-story offering up theories and insights. It's not that hard to search.

the track i posted was created in 1999


I don't want to go back and look at the whole history of this illiterate douche who thinks he's tiesto, but at the same time i want people to understand that house music is based on sampling and remixing (for the most part without credit being given). It still happens today and producers make tons of money.


Just look at eric prydz.

I think credit should always be given (thats my opinion even if its a 4 beat sample).

so i guess ill refrain. I don't want to stir up the pot. Just some food for thought.

ffs can these threads be banned or something? everyone is just playing into the guys hands by giving him more and more publicity.

please just start banning people who mention the guy on this forum.

$5000 is a good deal if he personally can bring in 400 people at $50 a ticket.

You ladies can just AVOID the thread altogether if u have a problem. You guys are akin to some tech house lover hijacking a review thread on a trance event or vice versa simply because it's not your style of music.

You guys are inadvertantly causing more publicity good or bad by complaining when you could have avoided the thread altoghether. Part 2 interview will be coming up in the future...and if I attracted you guys to the 1st interview then that's YOUR fault, not *****'s.
