From everything I've heard on all the message boards (planet-mu's is very
good), mining the net for samples results in your music sounding vastly
similar and boring to 99% of what's out there. Seems to me you use synths
and tweak the shit out of them, resample them.....whatever. As far as
samples... the old amen brother that shows up in every single jungle/drill
and bass track is sure to be a crowd pleaser... but I've heard the best
thing to do is just mine unexpected sources, old records, etc.....even
record your own sounds. That seems to be the only way to make your sound
unique.
What do I know, I don't even do any of this shit... I don't have the
equipment!
