I forget which artist said it, but aren't most instruments samplers in
their own way - what is a guitar but an instrument that millions before
have played the exact same notes on, just in different order? That seems
like the most intelligent stance on sampling; it's no different than
"notes" re-arranged in a new progression. Only when a song/section of a
song gets used in a wholesale copy (ie Puff Daddy) is sampling really a
un-creative process.
