Collaboration/Remix Etiquette?

[bentoonie]

Hi, been lurking for a bit.

I've come across some sequences I'd love to mess around with and add on to, so I was just hoping to get some guidance on to approach playing with other people's tracks. Are you supposed to message people for permission to create a sequence based on their original?  Or do people just sort of jump onto whatever they take a fancy to as long as you make sure there's a link back to the first sequence?

i'd say it depends on the person, but usually people will be fine with you just editing it, as long as you add your own touch. if they're in chat, shoot them a question, but if not then the best you can do is give credit to the original sequence :^)
