Cutting Loops From Other Producers Trax

and in electro they sample old hip hop records

Technically, in electro there is no sampling - it should all be synthesized.

well if we're gonna get technical then surely we shouldn't be relying on old analog gear to make techno as its meant to be "future" :lol: ... but yet some people would nearly kill their own mother for suggesting otherwise!

i fail to see how the journey is any business of anyone but the person who takes it. its the end result that matters.

if i hear a top tune (no matter what the genre) its still a top tune no matter who/what it samples.

another case in point:

the go team - they rip the fuk outta old northern soul and hip hop records yet they're probably one of the most "today" bands out there.. and he doesnt just sample "creativly", the guy has lifted entire choruses from tunes and stuck them in his own.

and you know what? its a fuking genius album.

For some reason I'll agree that its ok to sample outside your chosen genre and use it in your tunes. You're also less likely to get caught !
But sampling techno to make techno? Why would you even need to. People have every bit of software under the sun these days and loads of sounds at their disposal. Dont tell me you honestly feel the need to have to take a loop from a Speedy J record and 'make it your own'? (in a track you are releasing obviously)
That Minus Orange VS Spastik release on clone was a ****ing complete pisstake.

yes i have. ive sampled kicks, bass notes - anything and everything.

its absolutly no differant to sampling from another genre.. i dont really care if i get caught. is someone really gonna be bothered that i sampled a kick drum from their track? i know i wouldnt be.

*** just to be clear. im not talking about lifting a piece of a track and sticking it on another!!!!!
