Mozart's Symphony 40- remixed - copyright issues??

[fusilierb]

This has been a pet project of mine for a while I was teaching myself all the fun tricks that Ableton Live can pull off. I took an old CD of Mozart's Symphony ripped it into the Ableton and began systematically destroying a perfectly nice piece of music.Here's is where it stands as of today. I just found this again last night and have been playing around with it again. I'd like to get some feedback on whether something like this could be pitched, as I took the performance from a commercial recording. And also, just to see whether or not I'm the only person in the world who thinks this is pretty cool.Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury, I present to you Exhibit A:Symphony No. 40 in G Minorhttp://www.taximusic.com/song.php?song_id=2159 ... anfusilier

ha hey bryan,no I agree that it's a cool idea here.. and ableton is pretty cool huh? I messed with 2 week demo.you're main obstacle wouldn't be copyright of the music but of the master recording which the label would most likely own. you'd have to get their permission and work out a deal with them like clearing a sample minus the songwriting copyright piece of it.I think the idea is cool though and the piece you put remixed keeps my interest.

I really LOVE Ableton. I always start writing with it, cause its so easy to set up loops to try ideas against. This is really just a fart around session that I go back to from time to time, but its starting to sound cohesive enough that I thought it might be worth concentrating on. But if I'm going to run into copyright issues, I'm not going to waste the time on it.Again, thanks Patrick!B
