FULL ACK!!!

Der Typ macht einen auf tollen Ghetto-Gangsta und kommt rüber wie der allerletzte Ober-Aso, der nur fett rumposen kann und wichtig rumdröhnend 'nem Gör den Schnulli klaut! Bis auf dass ihm das Gör jetzt in den dreckigen Klemmgriffel beisst und er wie ein Schulmädel rumheult, aber um cool zu wirken saublöde Spackensprüche reisst. Vielleicht ist mal ein Drive-By mit Katzenkacke fällig, damit der Typ sich so beschissen fühlen kann, wie er sich anstellt! Möchtegern-Gangsta, du kotzt mich an!!!

Kauft nichts mehr von Timberland!

Hmmm, somehow "Werner" comes to my mind! :wink:

But you are right: Timbaland seems to be a cornered wannabe gangsta. So he lashes out with such bullshit!

heh.

Read lots of articles and its all very interesting and all that.

using my own ears, the right channel has pretty much the entire sid version playing with a few extra arpeggio's going on in the left.

Nice to know that someone still likes the sid sound really, i think thats been forgotten a little bit in the whole rukus, we can now add incredibly talented american rap producers into the fan base of el sid (along with the prodigy etc).

hopefully he'll eat a bit of humble pie and give a little something to those who are owed, maybe credit the original artist on his website and on 2nd gen cd's credit them there too and of course give a little $$$ and tell his uneducated fans to shut up and get back to mowing the lawn. (sorry had to stick in a generic american put down in there somewere didnt i ^^).

Clueless quote of the day:
It's from a video game, idiot! [laughter] Freaking jerk! (Timbaland)
I think the transcript is wrong. What I heard him say was: "It's from a video game idiot, a freaking jerk."

So he's calling all videos gamers jerks, which is a really poor attempt to get out of this. But we won't let him, will we! :twisted:

I agree with Infamous that it's actually an honour for a SID artist and our whole scene that the Hip-Hop and R&B producer himself makes SID sounds presentable to a broad Pop music audience. But than he shouldn't talk shit like that, saying he liked it so he used it and at the same time calling its author (and thereby also me and all of you guys) an idiot. That's so sick! But that is also how Timbo's gotten so successful, by being callous and brash and not caring about hurting anyone's feelings, that's what people like about him. That's what I always liked about him. Only that this time I can't find it funny somehow. :evil:

I think that one sentence sums it up. He stole and used a song which in he's mind comes from some video game and these bunch of nerds cant do anything about it. HA HA HA in Your face.

Thats how I see it.

As omoroca points out a few posts above, what he says is that it is from a "video game idiot", not a "video game, idiot".

Yeah I think you guys are right. He basicallys said that the music was made by a "videgoame freak".

He is not even dumb, he is pretty arrogant.

He's dumb enough to prejudice his own case by virtually admitting he's careless with his sample sources :)

Well, he must be pretty rich, so make sure you get enough ca$h out of this. Should set up an paypal account if you need some support.

Some people just keep saying that this whole Acid Jazzed Evening is a rippoff of Street Fighter Alpha Turbo. I've never even heard that tune. Does anyone have a sample (no pun intended) of it?

That's extremely dubious. Probably just Timbaland fans trying to clear him by getting him into trouble with {insert large megacorp who released Street Fighter here}

Mind you, without facts... is that game in Mame?

I had a look at http://www.system16.com and at the mame list iself, and the only ones that i can find and resemble that name are Street Fighter 2 Turbo and Street Fighter Alpha (and their respective sequels/prequels).

http://www.system16.com/list.php?type=g&search=alpha
http://www.system16.com/list.php?type=g&search=turbo

Of course, the list might be incomplete... but as far as i can see most of these are in MAME.
