Been meaning to say something about this for a bit now . . . One
of the features in this month's issue of Keyboard Magazine is re:
sampling in hip-hop/rap, techno and contemporary classical musics. In
the section dealing with Techno, they talk with Thrash, RDJ, the Hartnoll
bros., Mark Gage and the guys in Ultramarine about their usage of samples
and their thoughts on sampling/samplers in general.
If anyone's interested, I'll post some highlights tomorrow after
I completely read the article at work . . . :) I did spot a whole lot of
"I hate the way they make samplers" kind of comments from just about
everyone, and RDJ spazzing over his equipment and methods for the
umpteenth-gazillion time. However, I did notice that he admitted that it
was a pretty stupid habit of his, or something to that effect.
