Palms Out Sounds Basement Jaxx Sample-delic Blogspot

"i wonder why sometimes when i find out what a sample is i dont care and sometimes it depresses me like finding out a magicians trick"

I think it's often depressing when what you're attributing to the artist is the specific, er, sound of the sound, and then you find out it already sounded that way before they sampled that. Like, with Daft Punk it's easy to just assume that they're responsible for all the hyperreal plasticity in their music, so it's disappointing to discover they often sample it.
