Funny! May I ask how people such as Moby side-step copy write infringements with say David Lynch when blatantly swiping original samples? Are they limited to how many bars used? Is the original simply augmented/diminished or key signature change to carefully side step? In a DJ setting, (which I did a side job while stationed in Iceland...way too many free shots ), I can understand the DJ would have A LOT more creative freedom but when someone such as Moby crosses the DJ to recording fartist (did I say that ), just how is this done without worrying about a litigiously ruinous situation?
Understand I am not faulting anyone, these are serious questions. (and please do not tell me David Lynch does not give a frack)
