Any time music under current copyright is used, even a snippet, the program must contract for it's use. Sometimes, an agreement is reached for use (payment donated to charity, etc), but mostly, it is for monetary compensation.
Even when singers on reality show sing a song, there is a need to reach an agreement between the program and the artists.
Only older songs, where the copyrights have lapsed, and are in public domain (like "Happy Birthday"), can be used freely.

Giving credit to the copyright holder would not propose you have not nonetheless violated copyright. you in basic terms can't do it without breaking the regulation. rather than allowing the shopper/shopper to elect song that's copyrighted, I propose you prepare samples for them to hearken to of song that's out of copyright or to which you will get the rights for unfastened. suffering artists (try close by golf equipment, CD toddler, self sufficient labels, and so on.) could be happy to grant you the rights in basic terms for the exposure.

I think it's if you are not selling it you can use it but if you do you are violating copyright. I would probably give credit to the artist whose song you're sampling also.
