Music question

#1 Post by seraphimdreamer777 » Thu Oct 16, 2008 10:22 am

I got up this morning and thought about doing some music for GGM and thought why not mangle and mix music from music files on my computer is it legal to use the music even though I've reversed it slowed it and sped it up so much that it still sounds cool but is not recognizable as a song or or music track that anyone has ever made? Or should I stick to the piano?

Yes. It's copyright infringement. But it shouldn't matter unless you plan on selling it. My advice to you is just make your own, though.

It could fall under sampling
