Some of you may have seen this. If not, it's fairly amusing...

sticking a 909 kick and a load of compression on a classic track is more like exhumation than reincarnation. kinda similar but far less dignified.
doing this sort of thing as a one off is cool but basing an entire career on it is pretty low. they're good businessmen though ill give em that!!

They're not classic tracks though. They're all obscure as fuck. Turning Barry Manilow into a stomping house tune seems more than 'original' to me.
Hate to say it but I'm with Roqqert on this one.

And this is what nicking other peoples samples is all about. Take something old >> create something new.

Their music ain't all rip-offs btw, check this one where the samples are mangled a bit more.

But that's the point of that video - they haven't created something new, the old and 'new' versions glide seamlessly into one another.
Don't get me wrong, I got a lot of respect for 'em, it's just that particular vid made me laugh.
Big up them for having the tunes in the first place.
