gargaj: isn't the band's name coptic RAIN ?

what about ripped graphics ? =)

Andromeda Software Development : Cadence and Cascade uses 'warlock' by caravan (credited)

but the biggest rip to my knowledge is Melon : I feel like a computer ...
uses 2 or 3 BT tracks, an Anthony Rother one (I think) and some more stuff, mr oizo etc.

People seem to forget Outside from Melon -which uses sample loops from Beastie Boys' "So Watcha Want".

It even rips a demo concept, does that negate the disclaimer to bitch about the lack of morality when ripping audio? ;)

Critical Mass :: Open Your eyes.
track by Guano apes, same title as the demo.

Vihreät Lehmät by mfx includes ripped loops from Massive Attack's Protection ;) Absolutely great track by Manticore though...

whoops, there supposed to be a link

rac: ...typo? :)

rainmaker: not to forget the lobotomia 2 invitation (by mfx & haujobb) first part which features the theme from ER ;-)

Relic / Nerve Axis (FSOL - various tacks form ISDN/Lifeforms)
Omnirush / Mystic (Aphex Twin - Shiny Metal Rods)
Goa / TBL (Hallucinogen - Angelic Particles)
Desert Dream / Kefrens (Ace of Base - Fashion Party)
Hardwired / Silents (David Withakker - Panther.sid)
Stash / TBL (Man with No Name - Silicon Trip)

and so on, and so on...the list could be endless, but i don't give a fuck if the demo is awesome, and the music fits in well (and in most cases it's better than the original).
it's a different story including the whole tune without modifying it, but making a remix imho is quite okay.
all of us need some inspiration sometimes...

samantha fox ham megademo 4 by megahawks inc. has "touch me" by samantha fox in it! shameless ripping!!1 commercýell mucyka!!11

Switchback/Rebels (rollercaster tune)
Voodoo People/Prodigy

I'm surprised it's not yet on the list

are you guys working for the majors and planning a class action? :)

Doh :( I can't get the sound to work on Vihreät Lehmät. Good cow though.

hyperventilation / byterapers
ripped vocals from abba's 's.o.s.'

don't remember exactly, but it was some NIN track

itami / neonray
some converter track, they asked for permission later (and got it, btw)

Demo: Deepness in the Sky by MFX

The adoption of a noble sentiment, or the insertion of a borrowed ornament, may sometimes display so much judgment as will almost compensate for invention.

Use the power of perception to penetrate the void of your mind

Demo: Elg by odd
Music: Elgedans by Roger & Jaktlaget

w/o permission of course.

Demo: quaq quaq by odd
Music: 0-day ivar

Ripping is l4me but even the best did it, partly without mentioning, and they earned money for those covers!

For example:
Rob Hubbard: Zoids, Master of Magic (Synergy/Audion-Album), Z00l00k (Jean-Michel Jarre)

Martin Galway: Yie Ar Kung-Fu (also Jean-Michel Jarre. Many others also ripped his musix later)

hehe, Hubbard is quite a ripper yes :)

Delta (Koyaanisqatsi / Philip Glass)

More?

I mean this:

Demos: Most since 1996.
Musics: Everything released on Warp Rec. since 1994.

I say this: You am I, you am Boards of Canada and Speedy J.

So join the counter-progressive culture TODAY! Make your own ORIGINAL porn instead of RIPPED noise. Maybe you will even get laid :D

Or maybe I need sleep.
