The document discusses the 2001 album "Since I Left You" by the Australian electronic music group The Avalanches. The album is composed entirely of samples from other songs and sources, using over 3,500 vinyl samples. It was originally conceived as a concept album about an international love story. Two tracks from the album, "Since I Left You" and "Frontier Psychiatrist" are highlighted as examples of the wide range of samples used. The document also discusses how dubstep music has furthered the postmodern tradition of extensive sampling and remixing of existing music.

4. Since I Left You was originally developed to be a concept album. Chater explained described the album original theme of a love story. Chatner described it as "an international search for love from country to country. The idea of a guy following a girl around the world and always being one port behind. And that was just because we had all these records from all over the world, and we'd like to use all that stuff."

Where is sampling DJ going?Dubstep.Dubstep , the dubstep remix and dubstep culture is growing fast on youtube channels and on podcasts and blogs.I am looking at it because of its use of sampling a mash-ups and remixes.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=or5mRjAOCsY Lloyds TSB advert remixhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciOmlFLZNx0 Where’s my money remix , football factory sample.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qvbabv12Duc Pulp Fiction Remix , start from 1.17http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=417AUI_dNzcMarvelletes Mr. Postman Youtube Channel : Inspector Dubplatehttp://www.youtube.com/user/inspectordubplate?blend=1&ob=4The technology such as fruity loops, logic, cubase it is getting easier and easier to make your own remixs , these videos demonstrate the accesability to the remix and dubstep culture.
