Interesting. You should probably ask FDA about that, if you can reach him.

Yes, I leaved a review on the song. It's quite interesting :)
I don't hear the similarity between the loop and that song.
The actual handbag full song, sure, but not the loop.
Well, the baseline is the same (in the loop, it's that deep synth bass), and the melody seems to be built upon the song, or the chords. I'm not saying it's true, but I'm pretty darn sure. :)
Oh wow... -I- didn't even know that!
Oh my oh my! Well, I find it rather peculiar, thus further invigorating, moreover.
Whoa!
then somebody plz ban FDA
Sampling is allowed if it's not money-earning. And it's also allowed as long as nobody notice. So just don't tell anyone, and we're all gonna be safe.
woah dude %u2020
wait that's what happens shen you make a cross what???
%u2020%u2020%u2020%u2020 yes it is. Because Newgrounds sampled the cross illegally. :O
:o thats crazy, the NG theme song is not as original as i thought :l
Well, the melody in the loop is quite original, though it's (probably) built upon Robbie Foster's song.
Great! Thanks for the info, dude!
That's great, have a medal
lovely illustration, might I say
nope, not on Newgrounds, it's strictly prohibited and the mods will ban a submission if they hear even a shred of copyrighted music in it. Unfortunately.
CRAP
Haha, wow! Good find. Though somehow sampling makes a song seem a lot less interesting...
Hip hop is more or less based on sampling, though. But I don't know what you think about hip hop :)
Yeah I'm backing wasim up on this one
sampling is sick, and almost the entire commercial music industry uses it to some extent. at this point, it's so nearly impossible to make something truly original that bringing up that argument is kind of redundant. It's all been done. Look at The Avalanches, their music is almost JUST sampling, and it's as amazing and original as anything.
Yep. It's just new ways of making music. I find it awesome.
Do not make a reply to this comment!
Hey whats up long time no talk.
Yeah, you know... I've been learning some 3D and stuff. Not as much on Newgrounds as I were before, but I'm still making Flash. You?
That loop uses copyrighted material? I actually think that might be just sheer coincidence. I mean, its a fairly easy to come up with tune, and the only thing that is used is those few notes in the bassline at a quicker tempo. I will ask some mods about this, it is very important.
I'm totally sure it's sampled from there, but it's not a huge thing.
I like this song :3
Why do you keep on re-uploading 'Alien Dust'?
I tried to get rid of the white screen on the start of the movie. Don't you see it? I gave up, though, so now you can leave your reviews safely.

well shit dude...what a great discovery.
that's something good to add to the NG history books.

Yeah, it's pretty pretty surprising. :) But a lot of great tunes are built upon samples, so FDA did a great job using the song!
