Blurb from WhoSampled:

“Back in March, London’s Point Blank Music School hosted a one day event celebrating the art of sampling with a series of workshops, discussion groups and practical demonstrations. Among the programme of sessions was a workshop and demo titled ‘A Brief History of Sampling’, hosted by WhoSampled’s Chris Read. Exploring the evolution of music through imitation and citation, the half hour workshop looks at examples in music history, from composers ‘remixing’ the work of their contemporaries in their own way to the modern evolution of sampling in Hip Hop and dance music. Watch below or read more on the session from Point Blank here.
