Call for Entries: Sampling Contest from Three Notes and Runnin'

The first remix is already up at Three Notes and Runnin'.

What's the contest? Make something good by sampling the music and they'll post it to their site. Here are the details:

    In the case, the court found that NWA violated copyright law when they sampled 3 notes of a guitar riff from Funkadelic's "Get off Your Ass and Jam" for their song "100 Miles and Runnin'". The ruling reversed a district court finding that because "no reasonable juror, even one familiar with the works of George Clinton, would recognize the source of the sample without having been told of its source", sampling clearance should not be required.
    Hear a sample of the NWA song, "100 Miles and Runnin'", which contains the sample. (hint: the sample comes in after the line "when in a black and white the capacity is two", and is looped for 16 bars).
    In doing so, the court broke from decades of established sample practice by ruling that all samples, regardless of how heavily manipulated or unrecognizable they may be, are subject either to "clearance" (obtaining permission for use of the sample, usually in exchange for money), or litigation. In an instant, this act made the majority of sample based music illegal. For more, read Why Sample Rights Matter.
    To protest this decision, we are creating a forum for sample-based musicians and artists to share their own 30 second songs which have been created using only the sample in question. By doing so, we hope to showcase the potential and diversity of sample based music and sound art, and to call into question the relationship between a sample and its use. All entries will be posted on this site as they are received.
    Rules for Submission

      1. Your song must be thirty seconds in length.

      2. Your song must use only the designated two seconds of the intro to Funkadelic's "Get off Your Ass and Jam" as source material. You can slice it, layer it, loop it, stretch it, filter it, smack it up, flip it, and rub it down, but you can't bring any other sounds into the mix.

      3. All Entries should be encoded as mp3s and emailed, along with artist name, email or URL, and a brief description / statement to mike@burncopy.com. All entries that adhere to the format of the call will be posted to the website.

    Participants are encouraged to process the sound in creative, unconventional and excessive manners, stretching the relationship between the finished result and the source material.

If you are planning a night out with friends, you do need to bear in mind what any solid DUI attorney can relay to you in regard to DUI and DWI arrests in this day and age. Indeed, after drinking and driving tonight, you may be sitting in the office of a DUI lawyer tomorrow.
What is personal injury? A personal injury claim is when an injured person seeks compensation from the person causing the initial injury. This process consists of extensive negotiating usually including insurance companies. A personal injury claim involves evaluation of the injury and damages suffered along with the representation of the person causing the injury. Places with many crimes require good attorneys such as the Personal Injury Attorneys of Chicago. After you have had the chance to both familiarize yourself with the mechanical workings of your telescope and after you have spent some time exploring the mystical face of the moon, you will be ready to move onward -- and upward, literally. Perhaps the time in which an air ambulance company can be of the greatest, most significant assistant to a patient is when that person is in need of critical care. It is in such a set of circumstances that the heroic efforts of air ambulance service personnel and air EMS professionals can make the greatest differences in a persons life. Winsor Pilates participants learn that repetition is not the key to better physical fitness. With Winsor Pilates, the goal is not the repetition of movements but the quality of the movements themselves. In simple terms, Winsor Pilates teaches that there is far more to be gained by proper, flowing, natural movements than by contrived and repetitive ones. Losing a loved in anybody's life is one of the hardest things to go through. This terrible loss is made all the worse when the deceased died without having to, or if it is clearly the fault of another person. For many years, there was no option for the survivors because legal claims were dropped when the person died. Now states have made it so legal claims can continue for the chance at serving justice after a wrongful death. What is Portable Cooling? Portable Cooling is a variety of things. Beginning with huge swamp coolers that sit outside to cool a house and stretching all the way to handheld misting systems to carry around.
