Random musical chat.

[Mook]

Sets a bit of a precedent.

 

Thank fuck I don't rip off, I mean write songs.

[cloggypop]

Noel Gallagher must be a bit worried.

[Juniper]

It's a funny one, that one. Probably the first case of it's kind.

 

The feel of the song is the one they have found has been ripped off, mostly the percussion elements.

 

But the percussion is the one things that apparently can't be copywrited/protected in the same way as musical notation/lyrics.

 

Admitidly I haven't gone through the case with a fine comb but that's as I understand it.

Yeah it was based on the style and tempo. The melody and lyrics are completely different. It was a stupid decision I think and will probably get over turned. It's always the family of dead artists who sniff the cash in these situations, I doubt Marvin Gaye would be arsed.

[cloggypop]

I bet Marvin also had his influences.

Blurred Lines should be sued for being shit.

[Paul]

Massively controversial and unfair ruling, in my view. Basically they've won because Blurred Lines uses cowbells. It's clearly inspired by Got To Give It Up (one of my all-time favourite tunes; it's fucking ace) but it doesn't copy it as the melody is totally different and so's the baseline. This is just about talentless, grabbing cunts gegging in on a lawyer-fest to make a few quid off a famous relative's coat-tails. How the fuck inspiration can be called copyright infringement is beyond me. Anyone who loves music should be disgusted by this. It's shite.

 

What next? George Harrison's family to sue Weller for ripping off Taxman on Start? Weller openly admits what he did and that he did it out of sheer love for The Beatles. Oh wait - Harrison's extended family don't need the cash.

[Total Longo]

I'm with setreal on this one.

[Mook]

I've developed a pathological hatred of that Flo-Rida cunt.

 

I'm sorry but going about in a basketball strip when you're not playing basketball is not fucking acceptable.

 

Fuck off.

 

(Serves me right for watching the music channel with the sound off).

Noel Gallagher must be a bit worried.

 

 

Noel would be left in just the skids he had on when he walked into court.  

[cloggypop]

They belong to Sid's mum.

[cloggypop]

And they are the ones he had on for Something Else.

[Carvalho Diablo]

And they are the ones he had on for Something Else.

 

The one's with cum on everybody ?

[cloggypop]

Yeah. That's them.

 

Also reminds me that Slade have a massive claim.

[stringvest]

Mellow.  Old school blue eyed soul.

Kashmir blaring out of the stereo at the min. Fuck me it's just top notch. Must have heard it 50 times or more but it's top top notch.

[Faustus]

I just watched Chic play out The Jonathan Ross Show and so just popped into the thread to say that I fucking LOVE Nile Rodgers.

 

The man's a genius.

Fucking hell.. That'd be the end of Techno and House music.

[Jose Jones]

I know I'm about a month behind but that new Blur song is pretty good.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Interesting interview with Steve Thompson about the mix of Metallica's AJFA album...

[Chairman Meow]

Lars Ulrich behaving like a total bell end, who could imagine such a thing?

 

That entire album is woefully produced compared to the likes of Master. 

[Skidfingers McGonical]

Ulrich let Hetfield take all the flack from Newsted over that as well. 

I really hate the fucking cunt. Thompson wanted out as well after he got orders from Ulrich but the his bosses refused. 

[Mook]

Lars Ulrich is an incredibly average drummer as well.

 

I've gone on a total Curtis Mayfield trip recently, almost forgotten how good he was.

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

Zayn has left One Direction! :-(

[Chairman Meow]

Lars Ulrich is an incredibly average drummer as well.

 

He can't even play the drums properly on Metallica songs these days. The only time in the last ten years or so Metallica have had even remotely decent sounding drums has been when Dave Lombardo played.
