still, if you consider what you're making electronic music "expression," should you really be sampling a "peer's" drums, especially from only a few years ago? i'm not saying you shouldn't, and i would do it myself probably if i wanted to make a point to myself or others, but it just strikes me as lazy.

fair enough... but the aimee mann and sufjan s. songs are fairly recent, too, and you know that's a no no for a lot of crate diggers and fans of sample-based music.

some other OKPs have sampled very new songs in the overall umbrella genre of electronic music, and it's just weird to me. i chalk it up to coming from a hip-hop perspective, but even hip-hop producers usually won't touch some of these songs either because of their newness or their similarity to what they're doing themselves.
