Apples to oranges. samples them selves were just another tool. The music was still handmade.

Sorry I can’t tell if you are being sarcastic or not.

That's pretty much my point:) A new technology brought new ideas to a cultural discipline, new forms of music, twisting and morphing the old forms, especially in the hands of the naive, yet creative youth. I see the same opportunities here, another new tool for the artistic arsenal.

The sarcasm is irrelevant, my use of that term is more a nod towards this platform and historical replies in past discussions, in regard to similar situations. I'll make an effort to excise any superfluous attempts at humour in future posts!
