What is a "sample"?
A sample is a short segment or excerpt taken from an existing recording or sound, often reused or manipulated in a new composition or track. This could be a snippet of melody, rhythm, or vocals. The original sound may be altered through various techniques, such as changing its pitch or adding effects, to create something new while still referencing the original material. A sample is commonly used in genres like hip-hop and electronic music to incorporate or pay homage to previous works.
