someone should inform dave darrell and robert miles....

[thesightless]

yeah, someone should tell dave darrell that CHILDREN was written a decade ago by robert miles. not him in 2008.

on beatport... shame, one would think they at least would know children.

another artist ripping off an old school tune. this one is even worse. at least credit miles.

Re: someone should inform dave darrell and robert miles....

seriously. this guy should go fuck himself. I just listened to his version on youtube. WTF

No credit to Miles? FFS.


Rant aside, I hope Dj's boycott blatandly mindless reworkings of classic tunes, like this one.

Re: someone should inform dave darrell and robert miles....

unfortunately they can't credit RM on the title, because if they did, then they would have to let Miles know that he re-did it, and have to either risk it not being allowed to be released, or Miles asking $$$ for the rights to be used.

this way he just get's to have all the $$$ to himself.

Well what about Funkagenda's remix/reworking of Star69 and calling it What the Fuck?

He know's what is not what.

Oh, let's not forget about all the Doors bootlegs out there where they are only known by the people who know their music.

Re: someone should inform dave darrell and robert miles....

ok. I agree Jeff. But!

BUT!

Vanilla Ice's 'sampling' was even less blatant than this.

Dude, this Darrel guy literally, and I do mean literally, cut the guitar/piano part and pasted it into protools.

What is even more sickening to me, is that looking at some of the comments up on YouTube, people actually think this is HIS tune.

Re: someone should inform dave darrell and robert miles....

"bootlegs" is the operative word. Not featured release.

And whoever funkagenda may be, doesn't make it right.

Re: someone should inform dave darrell and robert miles....

-1 for the pointless "reedit/remix"

-10 for no credit.

fail.

on the above topic:
Exactly! the star69, what the fuck too.

blatantly stolen from another vocal sample "i get deep" love that vocal. btw
i think it was pete heller dub or something

Right, and you shouldn't call the house you're about to rob to let them know you intend to rob it, because, you know, they'd probably want to keep some of their stuff.

If you don't call, though, you get to keep all the loot for yourself.

Point is: people remix, cover, and rework existing songs all the time. There is a right way to do it and there is a wrong way to do it. I haven't been able to see the video yet, but sounds like this dude went about it the wrong way.

Re: someone should inform dave darrell and robert miles....

^ is that a matter of legal 'right way' or as a matter of taste? or both?
