SAMPLING THE CIRCUITS: THE CASE FOR A NEW COMPREHENSIVE SCHEME FOR DETERMINING COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT AS A RESULT OF MUSIC SAMPLING INTRODUCTION Music sampling continues to be the linchpin of a variety of musical styles including rap, hip-hop, house, and dance music, and has even become prevalent in rock music.1 The practice of sampling involves taking pre-existing sound recordings and using portions of those recordings as elements in a new musical composition.2 The amount of the work sampled can range from taking the entire ―hook‖ or chorus/refrain from a musical composition to smaller elements, such as a riff or even one or two notes or words.3 Music sampling, as it pertains to copyright law and copyright licensing, is a real and current issue.

  • Pretty Woman
    PRETTY WOMAN BY JONATHAN LAWTON STEPHEN METCALFE EXT. A HOUSE IN THE HOLLYWOOD HILLS - NIGHT The view of downtown Los Angeles from the enormous, ornate house is extraordinary. A small outdoor dinner party is in progress. A MAGICIAN is entertaining guests. Playing cards and coins appear and disappear in his nimble hands. INT. HOUSE STUDY - NIGHT EDWARD HARRIS stands at the window, impassively looking down at the party. Edward is a handsome, well groomed man of around forty. He looks tired; the kind of fatigue that can't be cured by a night's sleep. EDWARD (a murmur) Left pocket. And indeed, down below, the magician pulls the coin from the left pocket of the incredulous WOMAN's silk blazer. More laughter and applause. The study is in keeping with the rest of the house. Luxurious. Everything the best. WILLIAM STUCKEY, Edward's contemporary, is a crafty looking lawyer who is the party host. VANCE is an investment banker. His assistant JAKE, is a financial researcher. The other men are INVESTMENT BANKERS. They are in dark suits and power ties. On the table are stacks of documents and folders, the name "KROSS INDUSTRIES" is prominent on many of the folders. INVESTMENT BANKER 1 Our banks certainly doesn't want to discourage Harris Enterprises from investing in California. We think this is a great new venue for you but you've got to understand the mergers and acquisitions market is changing. With the upswing in inflation we have to make these offerings tempting to offset the risk. VANCE Look, we're talking about hard assets and a straight liquidation.

  • OH, PRETTY PARODY: CAMPBELL V. ACUFF-ROSE MUSIC, INC
    Volume 8, Number 1 Fall 1994 OH, PRETTY PARODY: CAMPBELL v. ACUFF-ROSE MUSIC, INC. Lisa M. Babiskin* INTRODUCTION For the second time ever, the Supreme Court addressed the affirmative defense of fair use to copyright infringement in the context of parody in Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. ~ The unanimous opinion found a parody rap version of Roy Orbison's song "Oh, Pretty Woman" by the group 2 Live Crew could be a fair use within the exceptions to the protections of the Copyright Act of 1976. 2 The fair use defense is an inconsistent and confusing area that has been called "the most trouble- some [issue] in the whole law of copyright. "3 The Campbell decision helps preserve the flexible, case-by-case analysis intended by Congress and recognizes the value of parody both as a form of social criticism and catalyst in literature. The decision affords wide latitude to parodists, emphasizing the irrelevance of the judge's personal view of whether the parody is offensive or distasteful. It is unclear whether future courts will interpret this holding to be limited to fair use of parody in the context of song, or whether they will construe it more broadly to confer substantial freedom to parodists of all media. It is also unclear what effect this decision will have on the music industry's practice of digital sampling. This article will review the historical background of fair use in the context of parody and the case law preceding the Supreme Court's decision. A detailed discussion of the lower courts' decisions will be followed by analysis of the Supreme Court's decision and its implications for the future.
