How to clear a sample with us
Procedure
 
IF YOU HAVE SAMPLED ONE OF OUR WORKS, IN THE FIRST INSTANCE
WE WILL REQUIRE A COPY OF THE NEW SONG.

WE WILL THEN CONSIDER WHETHER OR NOT WE CAN GIVE PERMISSION FOR THE USE, AND ON WHAT TERMS. USUALLY WE WILL OWN A PERCENTAGE OF THE NEW SONG, AND OUR CO-PUBLISHING
AGREEMENT WILL NEED TO BE EXECUTED IN MOST CASES.

PLEASE SEND US A COPY OF YOUR NEW SONG, EITHER ON MP3, CD OR CASSETTE, WITH A COVERING LETTER STATING THE NAME OF THE NEW SONG, ARTIST, RECORD LABEL, PROPOSED RELEASE DATE, AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT INFORMATION. BE SURE TO INCLUDE YOUR FAX
AND TELEPHONE NUMBER AND/ OR E-MAIL ADDRESS.

WE WILL THEN GET BACK TO YOU WITH OUR PERCENTAGE QUOTE AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE, AND ADVISE YOU HOW LABEL CREDITS SHOULD READ.
NO LABEL CREDITS SHOULD BE PREPARED OR
PRINTED BEFORE WE HAVE GIVEN PERMISSION FOR THE USE OF OUR WORK.

PLEASE NOTE THAT IT IS ESSENTIAL TO OBTAIN SAMPLE CLEARANCE BEFORE THE RELEASE OF THE NEW WORK.
