For the past couple months I’ve been working on a new style of sampling/djing videos. Basically, I’ve just been taking dope video clips from all over the place and turning them into beats. The quality isn’t perfect yet but bare with me, I’ll be making more of these in the future and might even put them out as a full album project.
According to Wikipedia it’s called “Video Sampling”:
