Hence the title of Coldcut's "Not Paid Enough", their instrumental version of their "Paid In Full" remix, which made Eric B & Rakim stars in England, and for which Coldcut were paid a ridiculously small amount of money. Che

remixers generally just get money up front to do the remix - no points and no copyright - the copyright stays with the original author of the track - that's why its a remix - in which case Warp probably don't have the rights to any of the Autechre remixes, and neither do autechre Subject: RE: (idm) Re: Autechre / Copyright infringement (fwd) >You seem to have overlooked the fact that NONE of the songs on the page >are available for purchase. So what "revenue" are they being denied? You're so full of shit your eyes are brown. If the lists you posted to IDM are any indication, half the tracks you put up are in print and easily available. I'm talking about stuff like the Ming remix, the Mike Ink remix, the Scorn remix, the St Etienne remix, the Space Time Continuum remix etc.

last week in the uk, some sort of legal precedent was set when a small time remixer successfully sued Kylie Minogue's record label over the use of a sample. the guy in question, sorry forgotten his name, used a drum pattern only in a remix that he had done and was justifiably upset to discover it on the lastest kylie single. therefore acting for their artists, warp could in the uk anyway, claim a form of copyright over subsequent remixes, above and beyond the original author's claims however whether this has influenced their recent action is anybodys guess Dave Colbran - Rumblefish Soundsystem http://www.sbu.ac.uk/~colbrad/RUMBLE.HTM
