Question about Samples and VGM tracks on Spotify

[Audiocolor]

So few things I'm curious about for those of you that have your music setup for streaming with Spotify.

So it's okay for VGM covers/remixes to be posted?

What about audio samples from Movies /TV shows etc..?

I plan to upload a handful of older albums produced by my friend and I, which has a BUNCH of short samples from movies like Jurassic Park, Kids and The Shining, which are strewn about in a few songs. So far I've read that no one really cares, unless the tracks were to start gaining significant traction. Just curious what the heavy Spotify users think. Wouldn't want any issues down the road, as we've already had a Podcast of ours get wiped out do to making one mistake.

Thanks

Yes, but they need to be licensed, usually through a distributor.

If you don't own the sample, you cannot distribute it. The distributor would refuse to license and distribute the track. Simple as that.
