      That's the kind of thinking that makes it so. You can absolutely sound different from everyone else. I say, and I would tell everyone this, to stop sampling other people's music. How will you ever come up with your own creativity and something to call your own if you don't?...SBN RESONATE

    I've always looked at it like this. You can do any sample as far as fair use but you cannot take or rip entire songs, even if it's considered a "sample" or parts of a song that is looped.

    Hello I’ve been following you for a while and enjoy watching your content. This is a copy and paste comment that originally I comment this on decap channel which you might be familiar with cause of course he’s more known for his packs on spice and all and here goes: I seen how distrokid now like okay so I’m seeing right now that if you want UA-cam content Id on distrokid it mentions you can’t use sample loops from Logic, ableton, etc. and I of course Mostly use splice samples. When of course in the mood of doing sample beats. I’m not sign up to distrokid yet but seen a video discuss about it and so I do make songs because I’m also a rapper and singer and most songs I am planning to release once I sign up to distro some songs do include royalty free samples from splice so should I not then check the UA-cam content Id then pretty much? What do you think and of course have use samples as yours but mainly it’ll be one shot kicks, snares or once in awhile using loops drums.if using melodies of course I’ll either chop it up or spice it up like playing vst and others on top of it. Thank you 😊

    What if I put the song out free download? And on my distrokid/streaming money I never opened the vault of the streaming money. So if the publishing company wants to have a meeting, then I can show them right then and there that all the money made off the song is all there and never been touched. Technically that’s me not making any money off them bcuz I’ve never spent it nor touched it. This is when I tell them “now that I got your attention”… and proceed with asking them where do they want to move forward with this and give them their fair share and actually buy the right then and there. Has anybody else thought of this idea? I came up with this using my logical mind mixed with knowing how the game works. Someone please elaborate with me!🙏🏿

    • @elephanteardrumproduction
      @elephanteardrumproduction Рік тому

      When sampling I always put it out free download as my mixtape stuff bcuz I’d rather gain a following first and not get sued for making money off the sample. Mixtapes we’re always free and no one got sued for rapping on another major artists beat back in the day. So why not put out the samples song out for free? Same concept you’re still using a major artist’s song! Might as well put it out free download and gain your followers, then they’ll feel grateful enough for receiving free music that they’ll definitely buy your album originally produced!! I’ll put out my LP stuff which is originally composed as for sale and work with that streaming money and never touch the mixtape streaming money until it’s time to have a meeting and show them you’ve never touched the money and you’re opening the distrokid account vault for the first time in front of these publishing agents.

    what is when I use a splice sample, that another artist already used and released? If it is his release and he was first, he will end up with the copyright, so I am not allowed to use it anymore. If Splice releases samples under the creative commons licence, you would not be allowed to earn money with it, would you? so how does it work^^

    • @ShowYourGenius
      @ShowYourGenius  3 роки тому +3

      Even if an artist uses a sample from splice before you, they don't own the copyright. The person that put that sample available on splice owns the copyright. Splice's service gives you permission to use that sample in your music and profit off of it on behalf of the person that uploaded it to splice. Nobody can copyright claim other people for using a sample they don't own the copyrights to.

    There's a big difference between one shot samples like a snare, clap or hi hat, and taking a whole melody or part of a song, putting it in a beat, and then calling it your own. There is levels to it, and there is a stage where it becomes plagerism and stealing to me. I'm sorry, and please don't get offended, but I am a ground up, from scratch producer, and there is hardly any of us anymore.
    When Timbaland said that there are no more producers, he wasn't lying. Hardly anyone makes their very own beats with just one shot samples and there own synth melodies and instruments. It's just recycled sounds and melodies over and over again, that somebody else already made. You could have made that melody yourself if you really wanted to, but like so many, you chose to take a melody sample from somebody else, and hey, it's whatever, if that's what you want to do, but you can only call yourself a producer with the drums and other sounds that you yourself made, everything else you can't really call your own.
    That's just how I see it, and it's very hard to make it your own. Basically, all these people making music are labelling themselves as "music producer's", and that's not what they are. They are sampling artist and/or beat makers. That's all I'm saying...SBN RESONATE

MPC's and DAWS are more for sampling, but people like me use an MPC, not for sampling, but recording my own sounds and melodies. All that I'm saying is that there is a huge difference between a one shot sample like a hi hat or snare, then taking a whole entire melody or part of someone's song as a sample.
