does anyone remember when NPGMC advertised the newfunk 7 CD sampler

Prince - )



prince - Newfunk sampling CD series (7-CD set):


*** This set is so far NOT released! ***

The 4thcoming set contains 7 (!!!) CD´s with Prince samples from
over 700 Prince songs!
Sampled suites: bass, human voice, keyboards, loops & percussion,
sound fx, orchestral).
This DJ + Remixer´s dream comes alive 4 a onetime fee $700!

This seven-CD set of Prince samples for producers, DJs and the general public was announced in the year 2000 to be available "soon" from the orderline 1-800-NEW-FUNK but is so far not released and it's not clear if this set will ever be released.
The discs in the Newfunk Sampling CD Series - "Bass," "The Human Voice," "Guitar," "Keyboards," "Loops & Percussion," "Sound FX" and "Orchestral" - not only spare music producers the trouble of combing through Prince's long-lauded output for sounds, but also help to encourage legal use of the Artist's samples. Instead of full-length songs, the Newfunk CDs offer hooks, beats, etc., all culled from various Prince songs, including a few well-known works from his '80s heyday, such as "Kiss," "Raspberry Beret," "When Doves Cry", "Erotic City" and more.
For a single payment of $700, producers will be able to sample the works featured on the CDs without fear of reprisal, copyright prosecution or additional royalties.

The thing that I couldn't get around is what if you bought this set, copied it and handed it out to all your friends and they then made records with the samples, how could Prince prove that they hadn't bought the original set?

Maybe that's why it was pulled?

The advertisement for the sampler set is on my Rave DVD, sounds cool but just another tease I guess

The 'license' came with the set. And was no transferable. Granted in theory one could just copy the set and sell it as 'samples' but the copy would not include the license. It is really a good idea. Had anything of the sort ever been done?

There are 1,000's of sample sets. Not of the Prince variety though....
