Chewshabadoo, I was thinking that the freedom and possibilities the sampler first gave artists to be a similar situation to the advent of the tape machine and the options opened up to composers in the late 40's - 50's. Does that make sense?
So not looping sections of music just to sing over, and not dropping random crap in everywhere to add colour.
To create narrative is an interesting proposition. Do you have an example?

FYI, you can sample drum breaks in other ways than just looping them "just to sing over". There are many examples of "creative" drum sample use in electronic music; check out the 90s works of drum'n'bass producers like T-Power, 4 Hero, or Apache 61, for example.
― Tuomas, Wednesday, 11 April 2012 09:59 (twelve years ago) link
But if you're interested in creative use of "found sounds" and other "non-music" samples (as well as more traditional music samples), I'd recommend checking out the the first two albums by 310, conveniently released as a 2 CD comp.

I doubt it's what you have in mind, but I guess it's worth plugging my new band here, it's a duo with myself constructing polyrhythmic musique concrete tapestries entirely with sampling keyboard and a talented gal pal singing disembodied lyrics about, uh, empty deserts and mirages and stuff. I think it fits the "creating a narrative" concept at least!

John Wall
― my father will guide me up the stairs to bed (anagram), Wednesday, 11 April 2012 12:20 (twelve years ago) link
John Wall (born 1950) is an autodidact electronic composer whose contribution to the field is widely noted by critics of new music. His work has moved from early plunderphonic compositions - where he brought together unlikely combinations of musical genres to create fantastical new works – to large scale works composed of thousands of tiny fragments which create the impression of virtual orchestras. Critics have remarked on “his extraordinary feeling for musical narrative” which is achieved through a working method that has been described as “phenomenally painstaking”. According to one critic, Wall’s “releases sound like the most finely crafted audio sculptures, somewhere between the contemporary composition of Lachenmann and the experiments of early laptop musicians of the mid 90s.”

thanks so much for that link Abbott. So cool that the author of the Singing Dogs was a bird recordist! I even found an archive of some of his earliest recordings online here: http://sounds.bl.uk/Environment/Early-wildlife-recordings
Danish field recordist Carl Weismann was one of the pioneers of wildlife sound recording. His great passion was birds… and his great nemesis was dogs. Back in the 50’s, while attempting to recorded clear uninterrupted birdsong, he found his efforts continually hampered by the interjections of barking canines. As they would wouldn’t go away when the tape was rolling, he was forced to get around this by becoming a master at locating these barks on the recorded tape then cutting them out with a scalpel. This naturally left him with a whole library of snippets of recorded dog barks. Instead of throwing them out, Carl decided to have some fun with them.

sampling in rap is generally more editorial than compositional. i don't think the ability to create narratives is the distinction, though, because anyone who has made a mixtape is creating a narrative, and that's almost a purely editorial/curatorial endeavor.

i don't think i've ever centered my attention on one means of manipulating sound. synths, tape, samplers, computers, turntables, its all good to me. probably most impressed by tape manipulation more than anything. as a lover of house and freestyle editing, i am constantly amazed by the ingenuity and craft of the editors of those fields circa 1980's. to me freestyle editors created wholly distinct compositions using nothing more than tape and razor blades (a la the grandpappys of experimental sound) and they did it more artfully than most people i could think of. i'm a huge fan of early severed heads records and lots more like that, but one deft house or freestyle edit takes me closer to god than almost anything.

Depends on your definition of composition. I like the way Depeche Mode and Yello have used samplers, but I would call that arranging rather than composing. Composing (songwriting) is still done best sitting with a guitar or at a piano.

love paul dolden! he goes into detail about his method in the liner notes, and there was a Wire interview around 2005, but he basically scores the piece with sheet music, records each instrument independently, then layers it out until it basically sounds like an orchestra of one to ten thousand people playing in a small room; no electronic processing, rarely even adds reverb, just multiplication, so it is simultaneously a very realistic, plausible, acoustic sound, and one that absolutely could not happen in the real world. Threshold of Deafening Silence and L'ivresse de la vitesse are my favorite two albums.

Why Remaster Old Works? (L’ivressse de la vitesse 1)
In the late 1970’s I started to write and produce music involving hundreds of parts or tracks. In the early days, the analogue recording medium was very noisy when bouncing (or premixing) tracks together. Things improved throughout the 1980’s and ’90’s, but a large multitrack digital tape recorder was still out of my financial reach. By the late 1990’s the new computer and hard drive speeds finally provided me with an affordable multitrack solution. For the first time in my life I was able to achieve the balance between individual voices that I had so carefully notated in the original scores. I achieved further musical clarity and a new depth of sound by using quality compression, equalisation and reverb. To remaster, I went back to the individual tracks. This was a huge undertaking. For example, a piece like Dancing on the Walls of Jericho (1990) may be only 16 minutes and 15 seconds long, but it is a large tape work comprising eighty hours of original recorded materials.
Recordings always ‘freeze’ or crystallise musical and spectral meaning for the listener. An odd sound combination that you have grown fond of in the old master may not appear in the same way in the new one. However, I think you will agree that I have stayed true to the original compositions. I changed some musical moments and transitions in Dancing on the Walls of Jericho, Beyond the Walls of Jericho, and the tape components for Physics of Seduction. Invocations #2 and Physics of Seduction. Invocations #3, all originally released on the L’ivresse de la vitesse CD in 1994. These changes were motivated by compositional concerns and were created using the musical materials from the Walls Cycle. The only new recordings made for the remastering process were the drum parts (performed by Philippe Keyser) in Physics of Seduction. Invocation #2 and Physics of Seduction. Invocation #3.
I invite you to discover many new levels of meaning and clarity in the new masters, which are much closer to my original artistic intention.

Intoxicated By Speed, the discs [from the 1994 edition]
The music on these two discs represents two different but related compositional strategies. The first compositional strategy is represented by the creation of the four solo tape works and the second strategy is the creation of the five works for soloist and tape.
The creation of the solo tape compositions involves the composition of several hundred simultaneous musical parts or lines on large manuscript paper. Each part or line is individually performed on an acoustic instrument and recorded. Once all several hundred parts have been individually recorded, they are digitally mixed together with usually no, or very little, signal processing or electronic effects. This working method allows for new and complex polyrhythmic and microtonal tuning relationships between parts that could never be performed by a live ensemble. This compositional technique also allows for unique orchestration and density possibilities that can be constantly transformed.
The exclusive use of acoustic instruments in these recordings could be partially explained by the fact that I regularly perform on the violin, guitar and cello. Therefore I hear a richness of human expression in acoustic instrumental performance which, to me, is largely absent in any other electroacoustic production method. Indeed the sound worlds found in these recordings could not be created by current electronic synthesis techniques, which are unable to produce a large palette of convincingly different timbres or sounds. The narrowness of this range of unique timbres prevents the type of orchestration strategies that can occur for acoustic sounds in which large numbers of sound sources can be combined and the individuality of each sound is somewhat maintained while there is a contribution to the overall sound. Likewise, this music could not be produced by current sampling techniques, which cannot create convincing long musical phrase structures which develop according to the compositional language of each piece.
