Hi everyone,
I'm a grad student in musicology at the University of Oxford, and am trying to do some research about US copyright law and sampling practices. I've recently read a little bit about DJs being hired by law firms and record company legal departments to scour new releases for unlicensed samples.
but there isn't nearly enough written about this, and I really want to find out more.
Has anyone here ever done this sort of work, or do you know of anyone who has? If so, please contact me! I will be forever in your debt.

I welcome PMs! Thanks
