it's a bit of a hobby of mine to find old break beats from hip-hop songs. but i have to agree with some folks here. that narrator has the least infuential voice in history.

 

Still, the content is good enough to put up with the monotony. Really interesting stuff towards the end.

 

if you want to see some really interesting use of samples:

ignore the ableton part, prodigy did not use ableton or those crappy plugins to make that sound.

 

Do you dig?

I'm a diggah at heart and got a mad collection of vinyl and a studio.

 

hobby is smaller that that. not sure if it's considered diggin' if its digital.

i mostly do some reverse searching on old hip hop songs i like and like to pay homage to the originals. even then, i don't listen to everything. for example pete rock's & cl smooths "reminisce" has a great loop from tom scott's "today" but i can't listen to that by itself. on the other hand from that same song, i'll listen to the beginning of the end's - "when she made me promise" all day!
