I don't know about my favorite, but a recent one that caught my eye was this, only because I didn't recognize the sample and made be dig like hell to find it and it was different then the regular soul or funk flip.

Here's the original I finally found, didn't really flip a whole lot but still, gotta have nerv to take this beat to Vinnie Paz :lol:

Tough to say my favorite flip, but No ID's "man's world" for Beanie Sigel smashes JDillas if you ask me. I feel like I'm the only dude who thinks JDilla is overrated.

yeah, i like that one.

I think its always cool when you grab part of the song most people would loop up, and use it for intro, or even chorus, but flip it up and make ill beat outa the bits and pieces. makes it an ill flip. of course im not one to advocate chopping for the sake of chopping. if its cool, loop it.

but definately one of the requirements of an ill flip is to hear those parts no one else does and make other producrs say "why the **** didnt i think of that" like its so natural, and simple, its so obvious when you hear it flipped, but before hand its hard to hear unless you got dem ears. ya know?

A Tribe Called Quest can sure flip the shit out of Kool and The Gang records. Most of the stuff they sampled doesn't even sound like the original pieces.

true but the same apply with loops. I always wonder about the loops that are "hidden" in tracks. Even in well known tracks. I sometimes load a track into my DAW, turn on "play cycle", select a region of 4 beats and then shift the audioevent bit by bit, beat by beat sometimes evan half beats. Diggin for loops :)

definately a good technique. I do that with JJOS NDC chop sometimes. Ill just scrub the audio using random start points. it would be cool if you could lock in a lenght on a NDC chop (like 2 bars) and just move the region around.

I'm sure most of us myself included agree on this one, but the intellectual experiment proposed by the thread's author asked for a different opinion.

So why not play along?
