best genre

[not365]

whats the best genre for sampling! Opinions plz!!!

pretty much everything that come out of the 70's is golden.

i know alot of people like the 60's shit too but truthfully ive probably only flipped like 5 beats out of shit before 1970. probably aint diggin hard enough tho

but my preferred genre is soul. then funk, then classic rock. but whatevers dope is dope

I can't keep away from jazz personally, but only really that golden period from the mid 60-s to the mid 70's. There's a lot of good stuff from before and later, but that period offers so many more chances of finding those nuggets! However, I do like to investigate a lot of cheesy lounge music, and my favourite source (though not strictly a genre) is library music from that same era. There's so much amazing stuff throughout this area of music, it's just ridiculous, but it's not cheap (unless you get lucky at carboot sales/goodwills) which I often have.

-90's "Boom bap" HipHop
-Any Soul & Funk

I like the 70s stuff personally,old soul records is my records of choice.I dont like that disco stuff at the end of the 70s though,not my style plus I dont know of any dope songs thats been flipped from a disco song.

most of the shit is hard to put into a genre. That typa shit you hear on dusty fingers. Everyone who digs knows whatsup with that sound, and it all gives them the same goosebumps

That's it in a nutshell bro!

[nevermind]

I definitely love 80's stuff heavy piano's,great organs,bomb vocal samples,and there were thounsands of no namers in the 80's so the likeliness of someone else sampling them is less.

pop is the shiznit and also southern rock. they both have great strong stabs and a lot of times nice vocals too.

don't sleep on the 80s.
