Copyright : 2005, Wichita Recordings.

Rationale of fair use on Silent Alarm

[edit]

This is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:

  • It illustrates an educational article specifically about the album which contains the song from which this sample was taken.
  • It enriches and illustrates points discussed in the text relating to instrumentation, production, and the history of music with regards to its genres.
  • It is a sample of no more than 20 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
  • It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
  • It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
  • It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
  • It is uploaded on Wikipedia, a not-for-profit organisation.

Specific rationale

[edit]
  1. Illustrates Bloc Party's staccato guitar style.
  2. Demonstrates Paul Epworth's production aesthetic, i.e. his understated use of electronic studio effects to accompany and add to the live recorded versions of the songs. This is one of his key methods, as noted by the Steve Yates of Collective (BBC).
  3. Reviewed by Nitsuh Adebe of Pitchfork Media as being similar to Franz Ferdinand's post-punk revival song "Take Me Out".

I believe that this use of the excerpt is in good faith, and that its inclusion enhances rather than reduces the commercial value of the recording from which it was drawn. Rafablu88 19:14, 23 June 2009 (UTC)
