German sound stylist Manuel Schleis recently faced certain Sample theft allegations from French prodigious producer Madeon. Working under the moniker of Vengeance, Manuel retorted to a stern tweet from the French wonder-kid with consummate ease, explaining his stand on the allegations. Vengeance – who are known for their sample packs, were referenced to a track by Madeon who’s sound resembles a sample from the pack. A few tweets later, the matter was resolved and both parties seemed satisfied with the result.
@madeon there is not one single sample from you! Its all rebuilts with Nexus Chords and Synths.

It’s good to see, that in an age where copyrights have dominated music writing abilities, any legal matter gets resolved with patience and without hostility in the form of ego-less communication. 8io2
