Nari and Milani defend track's resemblance to Mr Ozio's 'Flat Beat'
They say they're not the first ones to have used the distinctive sample from the 1999 hit
Nari and Milani, the guys behind the track with strong similarities to Mr Oizo's 'Flat Beat', have spoken on the subject.
'Triangle' has done the rounds on the net this week after more than a few picked up on the bassline's resemblance to Oizo's 1999 hit, but the two producers have come out in defence of their Doorn Records tune, saying samples are readily available on the Vengeance Sound library.
They posted on Facebook: "Please check this file in your audio library: 'VEC3 Special Sounds 94 Root D 130 BPM'. It's outhere, available to everyone. It's on sale. Everybody can go and use it legally, as we did. We assume that several producers, more or less famous, uses music elements from #venegeance. Just simple as that.
"End of the day, music goes around and we can't blame ourselves at all but choosing a certain sound that we liked." [sic]
Just to clarify their innocence, they made sure everyone knew that they're not the only ones to use the sample, posting Chas Zoo's 'The Funk' along with the explanation.
