samplings not a bad thing i dont mind sampling at all, there would be many struggling track makers sometimes without that little low running sample in the background, hell ive even sampled airlock doors from movies for claps, so sampling in techno really has been a progression even for those who dont like to admit it. For most its a powerfull tool "if done right" that aint done right..........

the thread was how not to rip a loop........not the ethics & morals beind sampling.
