    At 1:35 he holds a record by Bruno Spoerri. Timbaland produced a track called versus for Jay z and it actually has in it a sample used without without permission from this exact LP shown here.The Jay z track is called "versus" and he used a sample from a Bruno Spoerri track called "On The Way".Jay z agreed to split royalties with Spoerri.

I can't sight read though I've been taught a few times...it never sticks. This should be fun and a challenge. Thank you for your amazing work.

    +azfiu if your looking for a good way to sample. Try ableton live paired with an MPD. an mpd 18 is 100$ and it works great. as far as the software goes you can buy it or torrent it ether way happy beat making.
