didnt know bones takes other peoples samples?

Oh man....bones is the KING of stolen samples.....plastic dreams, the bells, neil landstrumm.....he's even stolen loops from Joe Beltram. Gotta give him credit though.....he has no shame in hiding the fact that he does this-but why are people so stupid to buy his records when they might already have the original?

Oh schnap!
But he is using the hip hop approach. I see your point, but we cant take anything away from dude.
WE ARE ALL GUILTY OF SAMPLE RIPPING.
EVERYTHING WE DO IS A SAMPLE.
Unless we beat box or use the spoons.

Erm, dude, not everyone uses samples.

Not to sound picky here DB, but how far do you really wanna take that comment? What about that 909 kick you used last time? Which japanese engineer created that......? and that sample set of a real drum kit you used last time...? etc etc ad nauseum.

The argument about using samples annoys me. whats the point in any producer claiming that they "dont use samples" it's patently nonsense and serves no purpose other than to attempt to elevate them to this godlike status where they are better than everyone else because they "Dont use samples..."

This wasnt aimed at you DB by any means, and im pretty sure you know what im talking about anyway.

As for Frankie Bones - i couldnt really give a monkey's golden balls what he says, if he wants people to have respect for what he says and does, giving half-arsed statements about other forms of his own music serves no other purpose than to irritate people and get himself free publicity. In my mind it isnt a constructive conversation, and isnt even reality.

Bet your bottom dollar that presented with a "Schranze" tune in a club that rocked, he'd be catching the vibe along with everyone else there having a good time. Producers make music for people to enjoy - if they enjoy it then in my book its worthwhile, and yes i do believe that applys to EVERY genre of music going. Yes its an awkward truth, yes it'll get me slated, but i dont care. Purist nonsense revolts me. the true path is through open mindedness, an immutable fact - otherwise we would never have techno.
