Hope yall enjoyed this one ❤‍🔥Make sure to vote! www.tracklib.com/awards 🤜🤛 Just to be clear: the criteria for this category in our Sampling Awards is as much about being inventive with WHERE you've sourced your sample from, secondly if you implemented it in a creative way, and lastly the impact of the track.

[@YYY66767]

the other 2 samples are cool but Peggy's sampling in garbage pale kids is just on another level in comparison, objectively

doesn't sound good in my opinion, ok it's hard to sample those commercial songs but in my opnion it's unnecessary. I'd much rather listen to that travy sample

[@farewellblues]

Peggy is one of the most innovative producers of this generation, somehow he manages to sample from a wide variety of sources and his production is always evolving with different genres and influences, yet you can always recognize it's his sound.

I feel like I'm more surprised Travis Scott solo produced something that samples a pretty obscure indie Zelda-ish adventure game more than JPEGmafia sampling a Famicom Commercial At this point, I just expect that from him

[@char5379]

me too but what i did not expect was zilianop getting out of his wheelchair sample 💀

I can’t believe JPEGMAFIA sampled two Japanese commercials from the 80s. 💯🔥👏👏👏

i'll probably be voting Peggy but sampling Monty Python goes hard

[@applerberry4360]

Peggy just on a different level than the other samples

[@hemmo_20]

Peggy about to sweep the whole award show and I'm here for it

[@michawirkus9030]

So many great samples from Peggy on SCARING THE HOES. That album is a GROWER.

[@coolboy4rocks]

Sampling 80s commercials is crazy

[@mrlevinielsen]

Check out Oneohtrix Point Never. His album, Replica is full of stuff like that. His whole craft consists of a similar approach to those internet style plunderphonics but more instrumental and atmospheric

[@fashionjones17]

Bro Peggy is so talented it's crazy

[@sutoldude]

We need a full sample breakdown for SCARING THE HOES now

[@baukelotringen3124]

i mean compare that money young thug sample to JPEGs' sample the difference in genius level of sampling is just miles apart. The money sample is a just a basic ass trap drum loop with big 808s and shit while peggy's out here really creating a sound where every detail is interesting and cool and innovative

[@cotacreations1360]

Well sometimes man, less is more. At least Travis and Young Thug make their basic stuff sound banging, but JPEG on the other hand is just… noise.

[@blame2bc]

Thank you for this TRACKLIB ! Very visually pleasing!

[@fish21_]

love peggy using that zillian OP clip as a sample was so surprised to find out thats what it was

[@balmain-i3e]

JPEGMAFIA is the future, how many more excellent albums does he have to release for people to see this?

[@tokuyou3811]

i love peggy's penchant for oddball samples, thats not even to get into how he sampled the videos he got the sounds from. that'd be my pick. its not just a straight forward bar loop, and at one point he makes the sampled scream longer by reversing it, and then playing it forward to march along with thr beat. neither of these are uncommon sample techniques, but in conjunction with how fucking weird the sample choices are, it makes for such a surprisingly grimy beat that sounds like your being taunted by gradeschoolers. i do like that one of these samples comes from an indie game, shout outs to ittledew, crazy that its in a fucking beyonce song of all things. but it is just a video game sample, which in this landscape shows how much video game samples have come in terms of sampling same for monty python. while not as niche, it is an uncommon choice of sampling. but its in the genre of like. barbershop quartets, so it aint that crazy.

[@Flumples]

PEGGY STOP SCARING THE HOES

[@nbshftr]

ittle dew sample is fucking wild. go play that game it's great

[@campjr]

peggy's sample is such a obvious pick like holy...

Peggy always on top when it comes to samples

[@r-jayrosario8722]

HEY TRACKLIB, I LOVE HOW YOU VISUALIZE THE SONG AND BREAKDOWN TO A MASTERPIECE❤. Can you make Luv (Sic) pt. 4-6 Sample Breakdown, it'll be great to see it. 🤲

[@rocketleax5]

Amazing that Travis Scott from all people used a sample from Ittle Dew from all games. Long live Ludosity and their silly games!!

[@bubba-gumby]

Man, that Ittle Dew sample came out of nowhere. Like, don't get me wrong, the game is good, glad that it's getting recognition, but I wasn't aware a second person played that game

[@theoriginal7112]

Garbage pale kids is my favorite song off that album and I’m so happy to see it on here

[@UltraGamerAustin]

0:43 it’s a miracle that Nintendo hasn’t sued

[@parv6683]

The other two don't even hold a candle to what Peggy did on Garbage Pale Kids. Easy win.

[@tregood5859]

One of my favorite samples so far this year

[@jazzyjesterAZ]

GPK!! First time hearing it almost broke my neck!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@costagjm21]

Peggy still undefeated

[@lilmexpower]

jpegmafia being in both of these just goes to show how talented he really is

[@johannesriisnielsen3418]

Peggy for the win for sure! Also pls make a video with his best sample flips 🥹🫶

[@lollysmolly13]

I mean Peggy has always been one of his own kind when it comes to producing and sampling. It's so recognizable and unique to the point where I kinda expect him to push the envelope and do something so wacky and unorthodox yet catchy beat here and there. What actually surprised me the most is the fact Travis singlehandedly sampled an indie game sound effect and turned it into a dancehall renaissance-esque song. It's really impressive ngl.

[@roumer]

Please do Sample Breakdown on Big Baby Tape - Dying 2 Live or on his full album Varskva🙏

[@antoinepetitjean6721]

Jpegmafia was the most inventive on this one

[@porkstamina]
