What is a Sample?
Updated over a week ago

A sample is the use of a section of an existing recording, usually modified in some way, in a new recording.

Sampling is a popular resource in music production, and is increasingly present in the most famous songs in the world.

It's especially popular in some musical genres such as Hip-Hop and Dance (where sampling was originated), but currently this resource is used by artists in all musical genres.
