World record broken for number of samples used in one track?
You know we mentioned we were launching new sites? Well, as part of the launch of one of them, we’ve commissioned a mash-up. And it seems to have broken a world record

Don't the Avalanches use a fair amount of samples too?
Like, a ridiculous amount?
surely
they might be a few licensing issues with all of this?? Or does a sample have to be of a certain length to class as copywrite infringement or something?
Liek when on telly you have to say
"PICTURES FROM PLAYBOT TV" or somethingq
PLAYBOT?
Now there is a channel I'd watch.
More than Aquasky?
Nooooo chance.
its alright
kinda heard it all before mind hehehe...
...yes I know thats the point.
Yep

"...debut album Since I Left You, which was assembled from approximately 3,500 vinyl samples."
if i log on to the Quietus - which i won't -
will i see relentless and shameful advertising for DiS on there too? GOODY
Osymyso
is a legend. But does this track really use more samples than his own 'Intro Introspection' which used samples from the intros of 100 different well-known songs?
gah
I got 39 on my own which is an annoying amount to get really.
I assume it's a world record for a cleared sample list?
you caught me
the other four where the theme from South Park, "Hoots Mon", "Creep", "Yellow Submarine" and "Born In The USA"
were
not where obviously.
this obviously isnt cleared
log onto Rolling Stone
Blabbermouth, Metal Hammer, NME.com and CMU Daily and you'll see some shameful advertising for http://www.ThrashHits.com
Boycott them all. I dare you. Tee hee.
oh raz
so shouldn't count I guess
anyone could throw a bunch load of samples over a beat and claim this record...
Not a record at all.
Yes, many groups such as The Avalanches have used more, much more. Although the Avalanches numbers are certainly exaggerated. There's also a lesser known producer named The Bins who uses 50+ samples in ALL his/her songs, and not in a blatant mashup way like this one. Cool concept, but not a real record.
