“FEED THE ANIMALS”

 

FoodForAnimals has never been too worried about the potential legal issues that surround our music.  We’ve usually sampled as we pleased and downloaded software without fear; often with pride.  But after all the mash-ups, the politics of sampling don’t really seem particularly interesting or cutting-edge anymore.   In this day and age, it all seems like not that big a deal.  Do people still get sued over samples?      (yeah probably)

So, this post is NOT about the music/politics/ideas of the new GirlTalk album or how many unlicensed samples it boasts.  This is about the albums title:

“Feed The Animals“

 

It’s kinda similar to “Food For Animals”… What’s up with that? 

Too far away to be a sample, but also a little too close for comfort.

• I guess now I have to do a remix ASAP.
• Here is one of my favorite essays on sampling from Plunderphonics.
• I gotta find that tape the Rjyan “CEX” Kidwell did, under the name GirlTalk, in the Girltalk style.
