Timbaland stole scenemusic (orig amiga mod)
« on: January 15, 2007, 12:33:25 AM »
Big shot U.S. producer Timbaland, has been caught stealing original work of Janne "Tempest/Damage" Suni.

Tempest won the Asssembly 2000 demoparty Oldskool Music Compo with the track "Acid Jazzed Evening". Nelly Furtado's track "Do It" is a pretty obvious rip off.

Here is a video demonstrating similarities in the tracks:

Suni's website (has the original mod)

2nd video proving Timbaland ripped the tune in 2005 already (for a ring tone)

The Digg thread

If someone has problems hearing the similarities, here is a 40 second clip of 'Do it' with the inverted right channel + converted to mono.

It's on the front page of Rolling Stone again.

"BURNING QUESTION
Is Timbaland a Thief?"
