When I listen to Kanye’s Champion, for example. But I think there’s an unfair perception against samples in the production world, when it seems like to avoid using them would be just to kneecap ourselves. I agree with this to an extent, and I don’t follow a ton of producers who use samples. I don’t personally think it’s respectable at all but that’s just my opinion, it definitely takes a lot more skills to compose music.

I think anyone can use loops, like my 5 year old cousins who uses them in the garage band app, you just press play to combine the different loops. Personally I have so much respect for my favourite producers and none of them are just using loops, they write 99% of everything.

The end result is what matters, but using someone else’s loop will not sound like the mind blowing productions from the best music producers, sooner or later you’ll have to start doing things from scratch so you may as well just start now with ableton.

I think you can usually hear when someone has their own original style and really knows how to compose music, even if they do use some loops, they aren't just arranging loops they are writing stuff from scratch too.Įven the best music producers still use loops but they usually are just enhancing their original composition. It’s a good way to start out but its very different to someone who spent years learning instruments and composition, and developing production skills. I have a buddy, actually the main friend I have that makes music, and he is a sample based producer these days, and will find stuff on YouTube or vinyl to sample and then will chop it up and add his drums and it's really dope. I will use vocal loops/samples in the background and stuff like that, because I can't sing and like you, I don't reach out to singers.also because I'm fairly new but also because I'm not gonna pay someone for something like that when I'm not even selling or trying to monetize what I make anyway. I personally don't like using loops, because part of the fun for me is creating it all on my own. Whether it's stretching or slowing down, or chopping it up and rearranging or whatever. I have nothing against people who use loops (and some of my favorite producer's, even big names, have loop makers they will work with or who will send them stuff they will use), but they always do something to make it their own as well. The trick I think is to manipulate the samples, don't just use them as you find them, Chop them up, layer them, abuse them. Early prodigy was all samples with a couple of synth lines on top. Anything from fat boy slim, all samples of vinyl records, for instance. However, plenty of massive hits were basically all samples. So whilst there's nothing inherently unresectable about using samples, I personally get the joy from writing the actual song elements myself. And these days I've even started to put my own drum patterns together using individual percussion hits. Anything that adds tone or non percussion rhythm I want to know I created it. My personal perspective is that I'm ok using drum loops, and vocal samples (I can't sing and don't yet feel confident with my productions to engage a singer), and FX samples (risers, Downers, impacts etc), but I draw my line at harmonies and melodies etc. You can be successful without being respectable. Now that’s an extreme case, but it was a global success in spite of it. It’s shady and shows you are a hack to your colleagues. You learned very quickly,”wow the only original material in that entire song was the arrangement and midi pattern for the lead in the hook.” That’s not respectable. The interview he did where he talked through his Animals project file was not flattering.

Every sample used was from a torrented library and by the transitive most likely every external plug-in he used were cracked copies.

For instance, Martin Garrix was fully aware that every synth patch in his chart topper Animals was someone else’s preset that he torrented. We are fully aware of when something we do is corner cutting and perhaps less respectable.

But, on occasion, we know when they’re right. Now, as musicians, we know most of the time they’re bumbling idiots who are wrong about how easy it is. Electronic music is already one of the most scrutinized genres of music by people on the outside looking in. There’s no real procedural right way to make music, but in terms of becoming a respectable electronic/computer musician like he asked, there’s definitely something to be said there.
