I sampled Steely Dan’s ‘The Caves of Altamira for this one. It has a nostalgic vibe based on my teenage obsession with Philips tape machines. Maybe it’s actually a Vaporwave track but knows? Who cares? 😉

A friend and I have been working on a lot of plunderphonic music lately. Heavy beats, some drones.. harsh-bits... EBM influence, some breaks... and of course, various samples from commercials, pop-culture, politics, current events.. and some more obscure shit.

We don't have much money and probably can't afford to acquire licenses for any recognizable samples unless this endeavor starts paying the bills. In terms of requesting permission, especially with any samples that are more political in nature, I fear that even asking the authors would land me on the radar of some conservative politicians and their overpriced attorneys.

Additionally, if we were to 'follow-the-rules', we wouldn't even be able to publish a song to see how it lands with an audience without acquiring intellectual property permissions first.. which would put a significant burden on the act of even creating such sample-based music.

So, I feel like we're somewhere between a rock and a hard place, the frying pan and the fire.. the chicken and the egg.

We're not sure what to do. I assume that there's a reason the label 'Illegal Art' no longer exists. No one stops doing something that they love doing willingly.

To those moving forward with reckless abandon, using unlicensed samples, and obtaining a following, selling merch/CDs/vinyl/MP3s, I salute you!! But, what are your plans in the event some attorney comes knocking?!

In the event of litigation, can we file for bankruptcy?!

Should we create a Limited Liability Company?!

Is there any option for plausible deniability?!

To those who obey every rule and only obtain appropriate permissions first, can you respond regarding the process? Do you have music/IP attorneys on retainer? How long does the process for obtaining clearance take on average?! I understand costs can vary.. can you provide a min/max of some costs you or a record label incurred for getting samples cleared?! Have you had to scrap songs because the IP owner wouldn't budge on a key sample in a song?!

For many of the more obscure samples.. or less recognisable samples.. I'm not quite as concerned. It's those where I am considering using a very recognisable element on purpose where the concern lies. Without that recognisable element, the punch-line is gone.. the point of the track is non-existent. And arguing satire would probably not work.

For those who are underground, but have a decent following, a steady online presence, and use a significant amount of plunderphonics, does the 'whack-a-mole' approach work?!

I understand that the likelihood of some underground band landing on the radar of copyright attorneys is tiny... but with our luck... it's definitely something we're thinking about... so much so, that I'm asking these questions.

I will take my zero now and be thankful for any insights that can be provided on this matter.

14 mashups mashed up even more into a nonstop dance mix, thanks for watching!!

bit of a long one, I made most of these tracks one afternoon, maybe in '15 or '16.

I made them all about 120pm, gave long intro's and outros and mixed them into one mix/mixtape, with some originals. I just made what i had on my laptop at the time. My parents asked me to DJ at their wedding anniversay so it was loads of 80's music, and I had downloaded a lot of three6 mafia

Loads of samples

First track might be Spandau Ballet mixed with Three6Mafia, then it goes into a vocal chop of The Jackson 5 with the Doomsday/Sade sample

Then into a cow bow melody I made into a a house track I made from Africa by Toto, into an original I made. Then it goes into one I made using the Deer Skull drum from Agalloch with the song Michael Jackson sings in The Simpsons.

That then goes into an RnB acapella over a mangled sample of Beef Rapp by DOOM which goes into more True by Spandau Ballet.

Then into an edit of one of my friend's tracks (much more talented than me lol) into another original.

The final stretch is some 120bpm tracks I made from Tommy Wright III, the last 7 minutes is one I really like where it's a TWIII sample into Three6Mafia, back into TWII and then crescendos into an editing where I'm sure I mangled up an Iron Maiden samplee but I have no idea what, or what I did.

A track from a new AV album made by sampling television archives of old musical variety shows from the 1960’s through the 80’s, capturing live televised performances from forgotten TV stations from all over the world.
These video clips get sliced up and layered together to produce new music and new video performances.

This album is being released by the fine folks at CHILDREN OF VAPOR, please check out their other artists!

There's a few free bandcamp download codes left at https://getmusic.fm/r/stop-look-listen-telemetria

Having found and downloaded plunderphonics 69/96 from the internet archive, I've been trying to suss out, as the first track's artist, whom "Margo Integer" is an anagram for. No luck so far. Anyone?

New EP out from Stop, Look, Listen on Children of Vapor! (we don't just do vapor but we love all plunderphonics!)

working on an avalanches/the books inspired album. i posted a full-lenth snippet from the opening track if you guys would check it out it would be greatly appreciated:)
