Pretty straightforward chapter and something my mentor and I have already discussed. Experimented with the EXS24 sampler and chopping up parts of a song. Personally, I can see how sampling can make or break a song, but I'm more in favor of creating original content. Seeing and experimenting with actually sampling first hand helped with understanding how easy it is to do though and is another tool in the tool kit.
