Cant Really Dig

Buy a cd-turntable. Get a free account on www.365live.com (internet radio) and record whatever you would like. They have many catagories. If you want classical, reggae, spanish, whatever. I record it while I'm sleeping .. break down the tracks when I wake up(I don't do this often, just once in a while) and then transfer it onto cd. WIth the cd turntable, you now have the same feeling as if you bought the vinyl, and you constantly have new sounds without really paying for it.

But you will have to get a VIP membership (which is really cheap) otherwise the sound quality si really shyty
What up Roxstar? I checked your new joints on my space... keep it banging!

Thanks for checking me out. I don't have a membership on 356 live.. i just sample it the way it is. Most the the folks here try to find ways to make the samples more gully I actually like the way MP3's sound when their NOT in decent quality! haha

Yeah, i supposed that when I read it.. hehehe

get a band together or it seems you have a computer, download some old music.

yea thats what i do, but you know you cant find some crazy sh*t on the net really, most of the stuff up for download is popular music so, it kinda makes things a bit of a balls

SO heres my problem i live in cork city ireland. and theres only one or maybe two record shops that sell anything half outa the charts. But theres very few second hand stuff and 99% of the second hand stuff is like hits from 2000 dance music etc, awful. So i cant really buy records at all,

What should i do to get some crazy samples etc?

I can relate, I live in a city with no record shops, what I do is check out flea markets, and I also check with everyone I know, if they got any records stored away, that means family and friends, getting friends to ask their family and relatives, etc.

You can't tell which ones got 500-1000 records stored away, you might get surprised one day. A friend of mine just inherited 400 records from some distant relative, hehe.

You can also go door to door and ask if they have any records to sell.

Hehe, i can imangne going around asking for records door to door.
The balls is im not to fond on Irish music, which is all over the place here like, its like the only thing anyone has really. Ive got an awful lot of old irish tracks that my parents had on records. But it doesnt sample to well really and the orignal tracks arnt that great.

you just need to be creative

I bet you wouldn't be fond of this cheezy ass sample, but check the way alchemist flipped it.
