Wednesday 18 October 2017: New Rulings On Sampling - And What They Mean to Your Creativity

13:00 - 13:45

DeLaMar Theater (D12 Panel Room) | Marnixstraat 402, Amsterdam

What you can and cannot do with a sampler has exercised some of the finest legal minds in the world ever since the devices came on the market. And despite the fact that it is now more than thirty years since the first easily affordable machines appeared, we are still seeing new legal decisions which are potential game changers. Three recent landmark rulings on sampling: Kraftwerk III (sampling as a form of art), Madonna (sampling is de-minimis) and Drake/Pound Cake (sampling is fair use) are relevant to every creative person (plus their labels/managers etc), and our panel of experts will be explaining what they really mean and what they allow you to do with other people's IP.
