its NORMAL 2eat Mcdonalds here..but that shit is slow acting poison!!! Just because sampling is or has been (as u put it) a " part of our culture" doesnt mean that its a good thing. And in my humble opinion, its not an ode 2great musical composition...ur description of it is an EUPHEMISM...but in fact sampling is stealing others creativity...whether you used an instrument(s) to recreate the music or whether u use a MPC or other sampling software! Its stealling.thats why the copyright laws exist.

btw..explain your usage of the term "sampling" when you referenced Elvis, Streisand, Motown...etc as examples of people who have "sampled". I as you already know was refering to ELECTRONIC SAMPLING ie, (digital reconstruction of analog sound data) I think when you use the term sampling in the regard you did...its clearly different because the technology was not created yet. So it seems clear that you mean re-creating tracks from previous works. Which is also a cop-out. NORMAL doesnt equal GOOD.

I totally respect&agree w/much of ur thoughts. I personally have witnessed a transition in music of the WORST KIND..and that i would boldly assert that many (not all) of these neo producers/songwriters are not REMOTELY close to the MUSICAL KNOWLEDGE of some of the "older" ones. I used to really get bothered when i heard some new pop rapper talk about how HE JUST FINISHED WRITING A NEW TRACK..BUT ALL THIS NEW SONG WAS TURNED OUT TO BE WAS JUST A RIP-OFF SAMPLE OF SOMEONE ELSES WORK.

I'm more impressed with that sort of use of sampling...one must dig deeper in order to create that kind of art. Yes you are right, millions of people will be more "exposed" to his work...and unfortunatley most of those millions could care less about where it came from. I can't really get into it here...but if u did read what Quincy had to say about Kanye then u will understand that..some people work real hard at pushing the envelope..bending the boundaries WHILE OTHERS just ride on coat tails.

2) then he would take 5 or 10 or 15 snippets from one or two or much more sources and proceed to TIME AND/OR PITCH altered them and them sync them up into some amazingly melodious backed with a thumpin hard hittin back beat that would blow ur mind. My point is that this talented dude would use the technology of bit-based/computer sampling and use it like an INSTRUMENT....creating something totally virtually new and 100% UNRECOGNIZABLE from the original music sources.

@CDJIN..Yes, creativity comes in many forms and few would deny that view. I have witnessed remarkably talented folk use the technology of binary-bit based sampling and create beats/songs/grooves that were truly KILLING!! Brilliant work, I once saw a dude here on utube demonstrating his skills with his mpc. Man that dude blew everyone else away in that regard. Part of his BRILLIANCE was his ability to time-stretched &truncated his sample sources BEYOND RECOGNITION and CREATE A MASTERPIECE!

@keybobrob: I understand your point. But you're talking like this is something new. How many songs from the 60s and 70s were sampled by the likes of Babs Streisand, Elvis, and any number of Motown artists? Sampling is part of our culture and an ode to great musical composition. I think Jaco's fans are upset on "copying principles", but if it weren't for SWV's huge hit, "Portraits" would have been widely overlooked. Millions of people have been exposed to his work now. So in the end, Jaco won.
