on the new 1200 mics album there will be a track called "acid for nothing"
which is infact a remix to dire strait's "money for nothing"
just wondering how legal this is..
could mark knopfler like sue tip world and bankcrupt them if he was to came aware of this track some day..

same with juice... or with alot of their tracks.. its a tricky situation cause they might be actually helping the artists they rip off from cause its added publicity in one way of looking at it.

I doubt that asolipt1c... If they did they are obligated to write it on the CD... I am sure they did not... For sure a tricky situation. |

Same goes for the Eskimo remix for the Voodoo People by Prodigy.
Though the chances that he will be caught are pretty higher than the chances that Mark Knopfler will hear GMS.
His music is boring enough, he doesn't need GMS remix to make it more boring than this song already is.
np: Nirvana - Smells like teen spirit (Skazi Remix)

Well there's always a quite big chance that someone from the music industry will find out and start an investigation.. It's too risky in my mind to release these remixes/bootlegs without permission... All it take is one wrong move and the artist could be out of business for a very long time... incl. the label !
I find it much more interesting to do those remixes or bootlegs and don't release them and only use them as my own special tracks when I DJ |

Oh... let me see if I get it... Artists of our so beloved underculture are always stealing other pps music, even "releasing" it, or geting payed to play them at partys...
AND YET COMPLAIN ABOUT SHARING???
indeed a very very tricky situation... loved ur thread traveller
how nice to see such double standards...
nothing personal guys, I just think pp with glass roofs shouldn´t start throwing rocks...

Why don't they ask for permission first then? Why wouldn't they get it? Why would they say no to free publicity? ... Why do they need permission at all? Why can't you use a melody from an old track and remix it?
Many questions...

Hm... is this a publicity stunt?
It'd be funny to open the LA Times and see a big article on psytrance because GMS raised a ruckus with their sampling.
Dire Straits, btw, is an awesome band. I don't think GMS could play the synth intro to "Money For Nothing" if their lives depended on it...
