This fascinating, brilliant 20-minute video narrates the history of the "Amen Break," a six-second drum sample from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969. This sample was used extensively in early hiphop and sample-based music, and became the basis for drum-and-bass and jungle music -- a six-second clip that spawned several entire subcultures. Nate Harrison's 2004 video is a meditation on the ownership of culture, the nature of art and creativity, and the history of a remarkable music clip.

extremely informative. While copyright laws limit creativity in this respect, it only seems to be applicable when utilizing someone else's material through sampling or direct imitation.

No, it´s not "monotone". It´s a-direct-to-point narrative. Very interesting.

Or any of the names of other famously used sampled loops, such as the widely known loop most notoriously used by LTJ Bukem (in songs such as "Horizons"

At 6:14, where it plays the 1996 classic "New Style", it features another hi-hat sound seperate from the amen break, widely used by artists like Origin Unknown and, to reuse another featured artist, Squarepusher; does anyone recognise which loop these are sampled from?
