3 Very Different Ways to Flip a Sample | Going Beyond Beats with Samplers/SP404 (Ambient/DnB/House)
Sampling opens a whole world of creativity, but it’s easy to get caught in the lofi/Boombap trap. Flipping vinyl and making beats is a ton of fun and a great way to make music, but sampling can be so much more as well. In this video, we're talking 3 underrated sampling techniques for transforming a single sound source (in this case a track I made a few weeks back) across different musical genres and sounds. I’ll be using the SP404MKII, but this works with any daw/sampler. Whether you're into SP404 beatmaking, campling, or curious to learn more about sampling techniques, let's dive into it and see what's possible.
