"i think it is way too far to the other extreme to just be playing
little audio bits."
so, let me get this straight...
it's ok for people like jimmy yancey, josh davis, paul huston, the
dust brothers, theo parrish, crystl, dj premier, lee perry, carl
craig, thomas bangalter, 4 hero, ganja cru, etc. to use samples
("little audio bits") to produce tracks for people to listen to and
deejays to play, but it's not ok for deejays to play bits of those
tracks live to create something entirely new? i don't get it. that's
completely illogical. you may not care for what people like richie
hawtin and monolake do with the technology available to them, but
blame them, not the technology.
or would we all be better off if kool herc and grandmaster flash had
never started playing breaks back to back in the bronx in the 70s?
peace,
frank
