Open Challenge - The no SP battle!

Nah, SPs are cool.

But let's try battling with other samplers.

It looks like most users here have access to more than just Roland/Boss SP samplers- so I want to hear what you can do with them for a change! Doesn't matter if you use hardware of software/DAW samplers, just use these samples & flip them as hard as you can with something different.

Rules are:

Use these samples:
Windchase - Non Siamo Perfetti
Unknown - Funky Beat (drum solo)
Shackleton - Dead Man, Death Dub Remix by King Midas Sound (excerpt)
Ozel Turkban - Ozel's Dance Routine (excerpt)
No outside samples or instruments.
You must use each a bit of each of the 4 samples- doesn't matter how much or little you use, as long as they're all in there.
All hardware or software samplers are OK.
SPs are optional.
Use whatever effects, processing, mixing or mastering you feel like.
Comp closes Friday 19th of January.

All samples are proudly ripped from vintage & virgin vinyl.

Cool! I was wondering what that song's title meant. Windchase are an old & kinda obscure Australian prog band, pretty good too. It looks like they only got one album out- I should've researched it after I bought it. Didn't realise it was a bit of a score... Their singer/guitarist's parents migrated here according to his site's bio (among some pretty massive hyperbole about his career, I'd never heard of him until now).

ok. i didn't knew them.
the singer was italian immigrate. apparently they formed a famous prog band from australia.
if you like prog check le Orme, Area ,Premiata Forneria Marconi and Franco Battiato (70s only), but i if you like it probably you yet listen to them.

I've never done one of these challenges. How long does it need to be? And I guess we just post on our own Soundcloud, correct?

Special Guest Introduction.

special note: the rewind is of the tune you hear...so yes, it is made up of all the samples and not some arbitrary thing.
