Ha ha - fair bump, play on Pat.
I just re-read the post and yes it was a case of brain moving to quick for my two-fingered typing. Have edited it to make a bit more sense.
you are close to the mark with production music. Diff is they are trying to get as close to the sound and as recogniseable as poss without legal eagles stepping in. Whereas the sneaky caper is to twist/modify the original sample/riff so that it is tantalsising but not recognisable, so that it keeps bugging you.
Of course there are tossers like Kanye (Mr I am everything in my own world) who just grabs a whole killer tune (ie Daft Punk) and whacks an inane "I am everything in my own world" lyric over the top and claim to be an arteest.. But that is a differant kettle of toss..
Yes I would be keen to sample a..bigger.. faster.. stronger.. brew or two, sometime in the asap region.
I am waiting to hear this arvy if I have to work Fri and Sat night, but would be keen if you can squeeze it as the next couple of weekend are full of (boring) relly nonsense.. Maybe a weeknight would be cool too, and yep I am a Kanye for not returning the board bag yet..

If I'm not working Fri pm I was heading to the Oxford (Mt Hawthorn/Leederville) for some media drinkies if uptight chicks in power suits floats ya boat?
