I had created this joke rapper name of Karl Klaps and it was me basically just taking left over recorded samples to make intentionally bad "rap" music to. It was keyboards, guitar samples, and some other random things I would just record into a mic and a little bit of samples. I thought it was just gonna be a one off song, but then I got inspired to make another intentionally bad song with other samples I had leftover.
This is where PWEI and This is the day... comes back into the picture. I had also just figured out how to record some audio from TV or get pop culture samples from the internet. This time in the song I felt a lot more conscious about trying to insert ridiculous samples into the overall music and I felt like This is the day... influenced that urge to get odd source material tied into the song. So I ended up grabbing preacher samples, Tony the Tiger, Jackie Chan, and Shawn Connery saying "You're the man now dog" into the song among others. What I thought would just be a small quick sampling of a 2 or 3 minute song mushroomed into a 9 minute pile of crap that ended up getting made into a music video. Friends still laugh about it and I feel like This is the day... had an influence in how the song was made. So even if it's a bad song it brought some laughs to people.
I hope I didn't oversell the amount of sampling as not all of it follows it that way, but if you want to see the video its at this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIqdvfQ-yQUStatistics: Posted by letmein — Sun Feb 17, 2019 7:26 pm
