Awesome. This kind of sampling IS music and it is brilliant. Jason Derulo raising the pitch and playing Imogen Heap in it's entirety is not.

Evil!

Eeeeee-vil!

This is a fantastic remake! I didn't know there was so many samples used. Prodigy probably earns zero from this song seeing as how they need to pay all the original artists for the samples, lol

I think the concept of royalties for sampling had already been settled earlier, when the sample is small enough they do not really have to pay. This was a big problem and argument over rap albums sampling small bites from each other. There were tons of re-sampled sounds in the early 90s.

Either way this is a better insight to which albums were sampled, not to mention skill in deconstruction.

He's also using a modern program when The Prodigy was more likely using rackmount equipment and samplers to accomplish the same effect. They did not really have this sort of software based realtime editing in 1997.

pretty cool video, but i'm pretty sure videosift also had this one

such wonderous tweekery, playing with loops is fun.
