you use anything unlicensed you risk legal action... lots of smaller artists will not care but I have co-workers who know of other action sports industry types getting fines close to 20 grand for using unlicensed mainstream music...
Ii will either contact the artist directly or if its something where the music is not a primary concern i will use
