Didn't know who the guy was at first and just got it because it looked like a cool album. When i got home that album was amazing and i found a sample Ghostface used (forgot track). Thats what got me into digging bad lol.
With Downloading there isn't no experiences other than i found this guys blog and DL that album from rapidshare.


agreed with everything ESPECIALLY that^

also, wheres the sense of value with 'e-digging'
if you got a hard drive full of mp3s, are you really gonna miss them when they gone?
coz i sure as hell would miss my records..**** even thinkin about that gets me panicky lol

i'm not hating coz i have sampled the odd mp3, but it ain't nothing on the real thing, that mp3 ur sampling will have always come from vinyl in the first place
thats matreialistic..... :lol: , i feel you on this

Everyone should just do what feels right to them...the majority of my beats are made with mp3's that were made from real vinyl, some weren't. Can you tell the difference? Maybe. Maybe not. Check my page and see what you think...

Some days I feel like going through my records, some days I don't....at the end of the day it's all about the music I made with my time.

i say sample all the mp3s u want. thanks to serato and all these mp3 downloading sights, its been a hell of a lot easier for me to find dope records....and for your info, you can find almost any record for cheap. you just cant be lazy and have to actual put in some work and get your hands dirty to find them.

In your opinion sampling a song that's playing on your generic Serato record = "find dope records" ? ???

no. i meant thanks to serato, a lot of djs are resorting to spinning just mp3s and are selling there record collections because its easier to carry a computer from gig to gig than hulling bags of records around. this also means a lot of djs arent digging as much because as they used to because there too busy downloading mp3s. all i was saying is i dont mind it because this makes it easier for me to find dope records...

Is that the only reason why you buy records,for sounds/sampling?
