Fair use rationale for "Gastown" by Smoke Fairies
editThis is a sound sample from a commercial recording. Its inclusion here is claimed as fair use because:
- The usage in "Gastown" illustrates the composition aspect of the song, as discussed in the section where it is being used.
- The usage illustrates the band's songwriting ability, artistry growth, and ability in recording in the Folk/Blues genre.
- It is a sample of no more than 30 seconds from a much longer recording, and could not be used as a substitute for the original commercial recording or to recreate the original recording.
- It is of a lower quality than the original recording.
- It is not replaceable with an uncopyrighted or freely copyrighted sample of comparable educational value.
- It is believed that this sample will not affect the value of the original work or limit the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original recording.
