The art of sampling, one of the most innovative music processes to emerge in the late-twentieth century, stands today as both a celebrated art form and a cultural activity within the hip hop/rap music tradition and beyond. The Art of Sampling, 3rd Edition (Amir Said) examines this complex and controversial music process, and presents a study that illuminates the history, creative mechanics, and philosophy of sampling, while also exploring the implications that it holds for copyright law. The most comprehensive study ever written on sampling and copyright law, and the definitive book on sampling in the hip hop/rap music tradition, The Art of Sampling is detailed, sharply informative, engaging, and intensely thought-provoking. Truly one of the most striking and poignant music studies of all time.
