Don't be worrying about hiding your samples. Just get creative and make good beats. You could end up trying so hard to disguise your samples that it'll just end up sounding rubbish and you'll lose creativity if you know what I mean, because it may not sound how you really want it.
Basically just have fun making beats, for me that's what it's all about anyway.
do both. You gotta be creative. You gotta use your skills. But it also has to sound good. SOme samples you cant **** with and you shouldnt. Sometimes you only get a note or a hit and need more. Sometimes if you experiment you can find some crazy shit.
basically, use and do what sounds good. Worry about the rest later; But with this said you cant be lazy: Things like not chopping a loop to make it even better........or using the same loops your favorite producers does, or not really making a sample better, constitutes as being lazy.
find your own original sounds, sometimes this involves more work and does involve chopping. Sometimes looping shit is creative enough because no one else would have discovered that loop. Its all relative to the context of the sample and what you do with it.
To me, its about the music and my luv of the artform, not the money aspect of it and what some bullshit ass hole people say about it. Im gonna sample no matter what.
Dont chop just to chop. Dont loop just because youre lazy. And **** worrying about consequences.
