There's quite a few samples on ONE's album that I also have, so are you calling him out for being a sample pack user or a fellow digger... or both? :wink:

I used to spend more time on the internet downloading free percussion/synth/strings samples when I don't even use the ones I got already.
Most of the schit sounds the same or is just **** anyway.




I found myself doing the same thing......spending time on the net downloading free kits and trading with friends. I ended up with 50 GIGS of samples, some of which may be repetitive kits but out of the 50 GIGS there's definitely some good stuff in there,....stuff I don't think I could replace. :D

I just love to go to the store and pick some records. I just love to go through them, and to suddenly find a nice drumbreak.
I just love to set up my gear for the perfect sample recording. I just love to chop the break up exactly how I want it. This is why I wanted to make beats.


My man!

What I don't get is how people dont realize that the best drums usually come from the cheapest records . Also people dont realize that buy building your own library , you also build your skills with shaping and choosing sounds .
