He had a hand in classic albums such as Nirvana's In Utero, Pixies' Surfer Rosa, PJ Harvey's Rid of Me, Neurosis Times Of Grace, Godspeed's Yanqui UXO, and all of the albums from Jesus Lizard, Big Black, and Shellac. Plus Joanna Newsom's Ys which is also a fantastic folk record. Just to clarify though, I agree that his stance on sampling is ignorant.

Nice job on the assumptions but I am a drummer, guitarist and bass player of 15 years. I don't really care if it's not worthy of your snob ears. Jazz players quoting isn't sampling (obviously) but shows there is a history of this approach - using previous pieces of music as cultural value. Beatles aren't innocent either, until they got settled into the studio they were recycling beat/r&b music for their own compositions. It becomes a cultural conversation if you take older music and recycle it for the present. People who use traditional methods of writing music (instruments, composing) don't write in a vacuum, they are influenced and borrow/steal all the time. Like all forms of art and making music, there are people that do it creatively and there are those that are just derivative. Do you have the same opinions of collage art? It's exactly the same, recorded audio is a medium and with it you can do many things. Many of the great hip hop producers play their own instruments on their productions too.

Roger Troutman and even George Clinton were all about sampling and both had a say with their original compositions. Dj Quik's early sampling allowed for his abilities to truly shine in his later stuff when he started doing more original work with less samples and more instruments.

All they care about is if the sound is beautiful and/ or works in the equation they’re trying to solve. That’s it. They’re so open minded about where the sample comes from: A bird, a train, a plane, or an obscure or well known music album. Doesn’t matter.

Steve Albini is a legend. His work proves it. But apart from this on the other hand, throughout his career he has shown that he is very short-sighted. He hasn't been a visionary at all. He criticized Hip-Hop right from the start and it has become one of the most successful popular manifestations of the 80s and 90s. He also criticized House and Techno music, and we can all see the influence of this music today. He criticized digital technology and we can also all see where the world of computer-based production has come. Albini is a great studio engineer, I can't deny it, but as a visionary he is completely blind. He has spent his whole career behind an electric guitar and a tape recorder throwing shit at every new musical manifestation.

Interesting documentary. I speak as someone who makes electronic music, but also plays keys, guitar and bass but I’ve always found these sorts of arguments silly. The purists and elitists don’t seem to understand that there isn’t just one way of creating music, and the existence of sample based mediums do not invalidate their ability to play an instrument. A person who uses samples is aware they are borrowing sounds from elsewhere, but the skill comes from completely re-contextualising it. Also, I think the detractors have a very simplistic view of what sampling is or can be. I sometimes use samples in my own music, but rather than taking a chunk of someone else’s music and sticking a beat behind it, I will grab a snippet and manipulate it to create an entirely new sound, which then becomes an instrument in and of itself. It’s not likely you’d even recognise the “samples” in much of my music if you heard them. In short, stop trying to police creativity and ingenuity with your snobbery. Elitists (usually mediocre guitarists) need to get over themselves and sit the fuck down.

Besides other points usually mentioned, I would add that sampling is a great way for artists to pay respect to other artists, other styles, other eras. I am Russian, born in USSR, the one thing that clearly stands out (IMHO of a foreigner) in US musical tradition is continuity. When modern artists salute to previous generations, mention names they grew up on, give them another time to be noticed, it is so deep, so warm and so authentic. Because art never exists encapsulated, a new form is always born in a boiling pot of other forms, various connections and influences. And it is great when an artist shares it's own tastes and recipes with public. In this documentary it was mentioned that it was cheap to make MC Hammer's U Can't Touch This out of Rick James' Superfreak. Like someone took what was already cool and put his name on it. I do not know original intentions of a producer, but as I prefer to see it it was a matter of respect. Rick James name was introduced to a newer generation once again, and not only to a new generation, for the whole world too. This was a moment I discovered Rick James (and Temptations too, as they were mentioned in a sample). Later, I started searching for other connections hidden in other songs, in credits or directly mentioned in lyrics (like references to Aaron Hall) and it was a huge new ocean of music I fell in love with. Now, back to my point of continuity, this is just wonderful that (as some guys mentioned here in comments too) in US musical tradition, there are bridges from older generations. Sampling is one of the ways these bridges are built. And it is not a museum‐like reference, sampling gives old music a new birth. I wish it was same in Russia, there is so much music of USSR times, classy lyrics, melodies, which, woven into modern music, would make the scene deeper, and classy, too. Basically, respecting elders is classy, sampling era was all about respect.

Puff practically repurposed entire classics and turned them into rap songs in my opinion. Guys like Premier, Havoc, 9th Wonder, Khrysis, etc. find a different melody in an established song, they don't bite the whole song. It's because of their sampling that I have found some of my favorite soul/R&B songs. I think it's fun to strip down the song by ear and discover where the melodies came from.
@hendrix5757

As far as i'm concerned, there's a right and wrong way to approach sampling. The distinction being that one is going to require you to clear the samples because they're immediately recognizable and are just simple loops from a familiar melody at the forefront, and the other way being when samples are manipulated beyond recognition, while being used and layered in a musical way. Especially once awareness for lawsuits in copyright infringement became public knowledge, producer's and dj's had to be much more cryptic and clever with their sampling tactics. So naturally, there's far more creativity involved in taking an obscure sample and utilizing it in a way that's akin to how different 'notes' or pitches are used to comprise a melody! When done right, you can have a track consisting of various samples from a wide range of artists, that contains as much musicality and sophistication as any traditionally instrument centric composed song! Being able to seamlessly match several different elements taken from totally separate sources is not easy, and it's a skill of its own!

The people most upset about sampling and trying to sue didn't even create the "original" work in the first place. They own it because the music industry likes to take advantage of the creative talent that comes out of poverty. If what you created inspires the youth to reference your creativity to create something new, you should be honored not butt hurt.

The merits or evils of sampling makes for an interesting topic of debate. Making a song with a traditional instrument will likely require lots of manual practice and learning about musical theory. Producing a song with a drum machine and sampler may take far less practice and more digging (to locate a few seconds of a fitting sample among millions of hours of recorded music) and then technical processing. Each requires a certain set of talents to be honed. I listen to loads of electronica, including old school hip hop but must concede that Albini has a point. Ultimately all the technical processing is not necessarily borne of musical talent or work, but very sophisticated listening and essentially technical programming. It also comes down to minimal standards. Making good hip hop may take a certain talent, but doing it merely passably is far easier than playing even the simplest tune on guitar or piano. And this doesn't even consider the heavier creative onus of starting from the blank slate of silence versus the more "assisted" slate of beats and samples. If someone told you to make a song in 48 hours, would you have enough time to learn guitar and write a song from scratch, or would it be easier to open up Ableton and hunt down some samples? That said, Albini neglects to consider all the cultural and societal reasons which birthed hip hop and made it sound so good. Maybe the creative windfall was upfront -- in its very inception as a genre. Sampling also may have had the net effect of increasing awareness of music which would have been forgotten to future generations, to quote Stetsasonic (Talkin' All That Jazz). Ultimately the real shame is that the original artists never saw a red cent of royalties. That's just wholly unfair on any level! I suppose the hip hop artists who got minted could make personal reparations especially in the case of unknowns like ESG?

But samples have a unique quality to them as to where u can cut notes at the transients and take away some of the human expression of the originators and imply there own sense of human expression in its place. For example, Dilla takes a few frames of a sample and stretches it only to replay it any way. It gives the sample his expression making it a completely new piece.

SS- When you already play a single instrument like a piano or guitar or sax its easier to come up with a song than taking sounds from multiple sources and genres to make one piece..If you got 5 guys in one place you're playing with in real time you can make everything fit and stick to make sense, time wise, rhythm wise, style wise , motivation wise etc. because you have the benefit of improvisation and making changes on the spot..It's a much more difficult task to deal with ready made pieces of music that are already complete at their own speeds, styles of possibly totally unrelated genres and creating something new that makes sense, I personally experience more limitations.. If I play an instrument and already know how I want a certain sound to be played on a keyboard I can make it sound that way and thats it I'm not confined to what somebody already played and recorded...While you're making corny ass bets I talk from experience and I BET you never made a beat thats knocking ever in your life...Holla...

Not to mention that sample-based hip hop is a sound that couldn’t ever be replicated by standard instruments.

To imagine that strumming the same 4 chords on a guitar is any more creative than hip hop sample based production is a pretty narrow perspective of art.

Me personally, I find it way easier to have serious musicians play notes for me to produce my own original unique sounds from scratch, from drums to piano, to bass / guitars / violins, to wind instruments & so on. That way, I can feel proud of myself & my team for creating original musical master pieces. Also, not having to worry about being sued & or paying ridiculous amounts of money I don't have. Besides, James Brown & George Clinton never had to sample from their predecessors. So why should we all have to? Make your own Hits!!!! 💯👌😑✌

thats the most lazy noncreative aproach. Thats what all the kids with lofi learning videos are doing. Fucking make it creative and use little samples to make a whole composition, chopit,reverse it ,fx it, bounce it, make something new out of it. Try find a sample that will not be IGNORED while learning for school ,but something that stays in your/consumer ears for days on. Make something different.

I don't think people can understand until they've tried. I don't blame them. I remember being really dissapointed when I first learned about it. Now I'm into music and sample a lot but can almost never get anything really good

Too each his own, I sample sometimes, but to me there is nothing like painting on a clean canvas, rather than arranging parts of paintings to make a picture. It gives me a certain pride to create something out of thin air.

Yeah same here, been playing guitar, bass and drums for years and i've been experimenting with samples for a few months. Sampling has helped me realise important stuff about music and it's fun cause it offers variety. Still i'm always leaning more towards to composing something from scratch with instruments.

You’re never making anything from scratch, it’s always an inspiration from somebody else.

Yes, this is true. Even subconciously. Every, chord, hit, tap, or snare you've ever created, you've heard before. Even if you don't remember hearing it. It could be only for a second and you're brain will have already copied it. This even goes for rhythms and the song structure itself. The brain is a copy machine if you haven't learned that by now. This is one reason that makes it so powerful

rap invites you to love other songs... other genres can learn a lesson

It's like collage, there can be thousands of samples put together and all of them create something new. Covering a song it's a different story. Hip Hop didn't invent anything, HIP HOP reinvented everything.

RIP Shock G! Imagine him working on a record with Steve Albini, that would've been sick.

“If you can catch me, then I didn’t do my job.” That’s how you know the samples are being flipped into something with a completely new life. 🔥

There is a big difference between using a sampled sound like dj premier and ripping off a tune like mc hammer did

I always like randomly stumbling on an old song randomly and recognizing the sound because of modern music. I end up loving the original sound just as much
