It’s an all to familiar story now when we find out an artist facing legal trouble regarding sample use. The latest artist to face such a trouble is Baauer, who may be taken to court by Hector “El Father” Delgado – the man behind the “con los terroristas” sample Baauer used in Harlem Shake. There is a bit of uncertainty surrounding the whole situation, however. Firstly, in his recent Reddit AMA when Baauer was questioned about the sample, he responded that he had just “found it on the innerweb” and was not entirely sure of the sample’s origins. However according to The Fader, in a (now deleted) blog post Philadelphia-based DJ Apt One claimed the sample originated from a 2010 moombahton remix and was made available publicly by T&A Records in 2011 as part of the T&A Breaks 3: Moombahton Loops & Samples package. Hector “El Father” is claiming that the sample, taken from his song Los Terroristas (Remix), was never cleared for use. Hector, a former reggaeton artist, has been retired from reggaeton for around five years and now works as a preacher. We will update you with any further information we find regarding the situation, and a shoutout to Do Androids Dance reader “CDD” for the scoop.

a preacher suing someone? man, do I hate this world
So the sample packs that we buy to make songs legally, are really charging you money for copyrighted samples they put together
Harlem Shake is killing the Trap scene.
sadly but true
If the trap scene can be killed by one song, what does that say about the trap scene?
