I can't offer concrete evidence, such as album titles and track listings,
since I don't listen to FLA (for reasons I just mentioned), but, for
instance, their "metal" album is composed of directly lifted riffs from
Metallica and Slayer albums (among others).
And on the IDM tip, within the course of an album, I heard the entirety of
"Wax the Nip," and nearly all of "Ventolin" (both Aphex Twin songs). A
later song in the album had sampled some song off of Tri Repetae. And I
don't mean sample like the gratuitous sampling of that little skittery bit
in Bass Cadet. I mean like a good 30 or 40 seconds. Not even reprocessed
or mixed up. Just recorded off the original source with some "grindy
noise" in front of it.
But that's all that I've heard. After bringing it up to a friend of mine
who's really into FLA, he said "that's their thing!"
I checked the album covers and liner notes and saw no reference of the
tracks i just spoke of.
