Sampling In The Music Business
Have you ever listened to a new hit song on the radio and pointed out elements of an older hit within it? A guitar riff from a classic rock song or a vocal from an eighties song?

A music producer will explain why older songs are sometimes incorporated into new compositions. An entertainment attorney will discuss legal aspects of clearing samples.
