An interesting project.By the way, I heard somewhere they once tried the monkeys typewriters thing. The first pronouncable word they came up with was......Chumbawumba. At least Funky Cold Medina had some genuine originality in it (unless he ripped off the lyrics as well). True. That was a separate point about if/when a sample becomes the creation of the sampler. ... but to do something that I could do doesn't command any respect at all. I don't think I'm talented so if I could do it, why would I think someone else was talented for doing it? I was just trying to be funny, probably failing as per, but that just struck me as overly modest. You get plenty of respect from me for what you do. If I tried it, I would be up on several murder counts by now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundian Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 "He's not going to produce any more, sell any more or distribute any more - which is what they're asking of him," a spokesman for DJ Danger Mouse told BBC News Online. Maybe that's what got my back up in the first place. He was selling it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
