Default Re: Songs/bands that are popular that drive you NUTS

corsakh - these bands (from what I understand) have to consent to the use of samples in music. So basically you've got these bands from 40 years ago that are suddenly realizing income they never thought possible. Sounds like a pretty sweet deal to me.

Indeed it sounds good if this is the case (even though they should probably thank Tarantino in the first place [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] But this practice still disgusts me. You can hear Mozart, Morricone, etc samples all over the place - who gives the consent in these cases? This may not be such a strong case in US, but judging from what emerges in Russia - this is freaking terrible. People just rip off whole albums - music from one place, lyrics from the other and I really doubt anyone asks them about copyrights [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

About Led Zep. I mean these songs is not what they became famous for. A lot of modern "MTV" artist made their name on some good old remake.
