SPBB 378: Standing on the shoulders of giants
Posted: Thu Jun 27, 2024 9:32 am
Someting a bit different this time, rather than a set sample pack to choose from...
The task...
Choose one of your favouritest ever sample-based songs and look it up on Whosampled and use the listed songs that were sampled for it and make, not a remake, but something new.
You don't have to use the same snippets as used in your favourite - you can use any part(s) from the whole track lengths of the listed songs.
For example: if my favourite tune was Shook Ones Pt II, I'd go here...
https://www.whosampled.com/Mobb-Deep/Sh ... I/samples/
...and see that I can sample anything from the entirety of Jessica, Kitty With The Bent Frame and Dirty Feet to make my beat. Ya dig?
Only samples from songs used in your favourite allowed. No acapellas unless related to the favourite or songs sampled. Own synth or live bass OK. External pitching (speed-type only) for non-mkii users OK. Limited external effects/"mastering" etc OK.
Deadline is midnight PT, Saturday 6th July, with voting Sun 7th - Mon 8th.
PM the link to your track and the main Whosampled page for your chosen song to me as it's an anonymous round!
Selecta!
[In memoriam... Scrublet - one of the bestest cats who ever was (apart from the time he fell out of a window a month after I'd cancelled the pet insurance)]
