Project Runway
you cheap bastards! Stop ripping off
music!
So in the Paris episode of Season 3, there is a
lot of lovely French-sounding background music. Sound familiar? Well it should
if you've seen the movie Amelie or know the work of Yann Tiersen (one of my
favorite artists). The Project Runway people took his tracks, changed the melody
in only the slightest way and then did a new recording of his music. I mean, it
is 90% note-for-note. Either, the production company tried to license the music
and failed, or they didn't even bother. Either way, I hope YT and his labels sue
their asses. That kind of crap is low: for a well-funded TV production company
to rip off an independent artist in such a blatant way.
