Can Artists Take Legal Action for Unauthorized Remixes?

[legalbird]

I was listening to a playlist and saw a song credited to multiple artists. If someone samples part of that track without permission in their own remix, how does copyright work in Canada? Can the original artists take legal action?

Hey @legalbird,

Thanks for reaching out.

If the affected individual believes that there's content on Spotify that might violate their intellectual property rights or be illegal, they can fill out this form.

I hope this helps! 🙂
