If u can afford to clear the sample yourself then do so, that way you can charge thru the roof and they (A&R's) can't run that line about they won't clear the sample. Don't be scared to sample cuz you never know what it might cost.

Mostly the artist/label. But if the clearance cost isn't too much try paying yourself then charge more for the track. This way you can this get paid for publishing.

I now am looking for really off the wall sounds. I want to come up with a nice little unique sound. Just find you near used LP store and search through everything from 1900-1980 hehe, its not that bad that we need to touch the 90s yet, agreed?
