I'm making a death metal album, and I'm a little confused when it comes to sample use in music. I have samples from both old and modern movies in my music, but A: there's always something else playing under the sample, B: no sample exceeds 5 seconds, and C: all the samples have been in some way processed (distortion, delay, broken tape machine etc.)
How worried should I be if I don't get the permission to use them?
