i am obsessed with sampling. its like the coolest thing to me. it is such an amazing process that you can't really do in any other art form in the same way. i remember listening to M.I.A.'s first couple records that have samples from all across the world, i remember SZA sampling queen björk on SOS. sampling is a way to honour or use inspiration directly to create something new and interesting.
