― longtime caller, first time listener (man alive), Thursday, 13 May 2021 13:55 (three years ago) link
some of the remixes are ok i guess but they're all at least second-tier for the artists in question imo. the fingers remix is nice but it's hard for me to ignore how his chords clash with the key of the vocal. worst in that regard is the paul woolford remix, just like ... wtf was he thinking? that doesn't work for me on any level. it just seems like there was no dialogue at all between dua lipa or her songwriters and the remixers - just all on separate islands and it sounds totally phoned in as a result, less than the sum of the parts. there must have just been too many people involved without anyone making overall creative decisions and like covid and everything, idk.

not a Future Nostalgia track, but try Oklou’s stab at “Fever” for a remix that totally works on its own terms

unexpectedly i found the 2cd edition for £2 today.read this thread, expected the worse re the Blessed Madonna mixtape version.instead, like a proper cut-n-paste sample heavy mixtape, i bloody love it.so much fun.the label must have had a lot of fun clearing/paying for samples.cant recall the last time i heard a major release with so many samples.not heard the album proper yet, but damn, best £2 i have spent in a long time.

be still my beating heart.
ps. heard the proper album now. yeah, it's bloody brilliant.still don't get the hate the re mixtape as it's exactly what i'd expect/want from a dj mixtape.celeb phone ins, samples, and quick cut-n-paste drops of remixes.i think it's a brilliant 50 mins of pop/dance perfection.
given the rather boring megamix that girls aloud put out for their Tangled Up album release, then i cant help but throw a lot of love to Dupa for the effort put in by all concerned.

I can't remember if they said anything in the Song Exploder episode about how they came up with the chorus. I'll have to go back and listen to that later.

https://www.vice.com/en/article/wxdbmq/the-dua-lipa-lawsuits-could-cost-her-millions-according-to-a-lawyer
There are two suits. One concerning the vocal melody in "Live Your Life" (posted above), the other the vocal melodies in these songs written by L. Russell Brown and Sandy Linzer:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EsEXuWK7PZE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XCtlrFwKE_Y
I am very curious to see how this turns out. With acts/songs these small, it's not hard to imagine these could be coincidences; others have noted the Artikal melody sounds like "Rosa Parks," too.
You have to show your work is original, and you have to show some theory of access, meaning that [the defendant] had a reasonable ability to access it. Then you get to substantial similarity, which is a two-step process.
This is such a weak requirement so as to be basically pointless. I suppose it protects a famous artist from being sued by any John Doe but Artikal Sound System isn't far removed. It would be interesting if they had to prove the artists involved had the song in question in their possession. Is some sort of digital forensics ludicrously easy to evade?
