On sampling

“Music based on samples bores me silly. It becomes sort of a complex game of spot-the-influence — trying to mentally figure out why it is that this sound you’re hearing is reminiscent of something … It seems to me to be the ultimate in arrogance to think that you can create music that is equally significant by snatching bits of other people’s music or from other bits of cultural flotsam and jetsam. The analogy is often used that it’s like collage painting, which I think is completely fatuous. Collage painting uses bits of material that may or may not have meaning as textural or visual elements. It doesn’t use them for their explicit meaning.”

who in current year uses samples for their "explicit meaning" aside from retard spics that sample the godfather theme or something. 99% of sampling is just finding something that sounds cool and is the key and tempo of your track if that applies. problem is steve is too autistic to appreciate the music as it is and his autism compels him to "spot the influence". also his music is garbage and he is a literal cuck

bump

I like Steve, but he's not nearly as smart as he thinks he is.
Dude knows how to mic a drum kit like nobody else, though.

who fucking cares what this nobody has to say?

>ur autistic
Wow you really proved him wrong

He produced for NIRVANA! OKAY?!?! I'M NOT IRRELEVANT!

>sampling is bad
>NOOO YOU'RE FUCKING STUPID
deal with it, sampling music takes no talent or skill, its stealing someone else's performance and pretending you did it yourself
All producers that use samples take massive credit for it too, like Kanye, when they can barely make songs without the crutch of using other people's talents
