I was wondering how you decide what you decide when buying records. Do you guys have a feel for something and just go for a twitch buy? Do you look at the instruments? There any tools for crate diggers on the web?

mostly trying to do re-edits for myself, filter house, and some hip hop.

hi there, welcome to my lonely little world on TA

no tips, once you really start sampling you get an ear for it. My girlfriend can't stand being in the car w/ me because i'm writing emails to myself the whole time "SAMPLE THIS, ZOMG, GUITAR IN WHITE SNAKE" lol

disco, funk, jazz, etc are really where the whole genre started but things have really progressed recently, w/ people like Seth Troxler & Lee Foss sampling 90s R&B cuts. awesome music in any direction, imo

Someone here posted a link to some blogs and I've downloaded alot of rhodes samples and 70s funk stuff. I've been making alot of trip hop broken beat stuff as opposed to dance music lately.

I have so much fun doing sample based music/remixes...good on you for getting interested. I've been doing it a much more 'bootleg' way recently, in that I've been using audiohijack...it's not as authentic, but with youtube being amongst the biggest collections of source material of all time, it's hard to turn it down!

if it's house, just get on a tangent of searching for old funk tracks, never know what the 'recommended' section will come up with...

I hadn't heard of delegation before I did this remix, but just searching about for a little while helped me discover them!
