Compilations a no no?

compilations vinyl.

Im talkin about the newer reprints; where they compile the artists greatest works (not a greats hits) but a clear and plain, reprint. I picked one up and didnt realize it. But should i feel bad? its my only reprint. But i mean, how do you guys feel about the use of a reprint?

I love the record, cause its god mad awesome tracks......but is this cheating?

I mean, i guess i just have an ethically issue that needs to be addressed.

It doesn't matter.If it's dope it's dope.I use wax,c.d.'s and mp3's.You have to think of yourself as an artist(painter).And in being so, imagine painting a picture but only usin one color.You not only limit yourself but you become stagnant,knowhatimean?

truth^^^^^^^

you know what, i think i just felt bad because i made like 3 songs from the same record

Whatever makes you enjoy doin what you do,keep doin' it.

I'll grab up anything on reprint.... but I'll still look for the original.

I really, really don't understand why people worry about these things.

Aint Nuttin' Like Finding the Original....................................


BUT When it cones 2 SAMPLING don't Sweat that at all....................
I Have Reprints 4 primarily this reason...........................................

The Price on ORIGINALS CAN BE NUTZ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All of us Know this........................



But Lets Get Real I Was Listening 2 The Proteus 2000, Planet Phatt, Mo Phatt and the Orbit .......................

And Many People on this very forum have used sounds from these Modules but After a day or so of listening I Heard samples or cloned
sounds many of which were on "Super Disco Breaks" or the "Ultimate Breaks and Beats" Collection.......................

Sample Whatever BUT make those sounds FIT U not the other way
around U Guys Know what I Always Say Here Chop...chop...chop..........

Layer Etc...............With enough thought U Can make ANY sound kneel
2 Ur Will n Skill....................

same here when it comes to sampling.
but if your collecting albums that u luv, then its best if u got the original prints. its justa feeling.

like ive got this original print (still sealed ofcourse) of dj quik's safe + sound tape. everytime i c it i feel like ive got a gold nugget there. justa feeling.

Those reprints can come in handy though when you need to scratch the hell out of somethin'.Nobody wants to ruin an original.

its just that feeling...original.

I love vinyl. I have no problem copping reprints and compilations but I feel a little guilty sometimes because I want that original. The guilt is not great enough for me to stop copping it though And the price for some originals are ridiculous like 4000 said. I can't rationalize paying $156 for the Main Source original off Wild Pitch when I can go to ebay and cop the reprint for $24. That's more money for records

Oh, there is one original that I've been trying to get and bidded as high as $89 on ebay for it and lost. It's Lord Finesse and DJ Mike Smooth's "Funky Technician" album. I saw in a record store 5-6 years ago for $9 and told myself I'd come back for it. That sh*t was gone when I came back Now I can't get it for less than $90 anywhere

Thats the gayest ish i ever read...

naw aint no cheatin there... i mean in terms of djin if you need to find a track then you neeeed it and who gonna give a f*ck if its a reprint? obviously diff if you collectin and talkin bout samplin but should you feel bad?, ha, only if you got the money to cop the originals and you bein tight about it otherwise heeellll no. i hardly have money for vinyl full stop so at this point in time, the cheaper the better...

no they are a yes yes
