pass it on: the amen break tells us why you should blog.

Oscar Wilde once said that “all great art is theft”. In our current 2.0 world where ideas exchange, rearrange, and redistribute in a slightly new form, this is all the more the case. 

Check out the amen break. 6 consecutive beats from one single song impacted, rearranged and sped up, has become one of the most used beats in the history of music. Thousands of songs followed. In fact, it was the foundation of hip hop. 

Blog. Share. Tweak, Redistribute, Repeat. One never knows what will come of it down the chain.
