I think I'm different, I don't look for samples, I listen to music of all genres 24/7 for inspiration. Sometimes I hear a N.E.R.D. or Linkin Park album and get inspired to do a rock/hip hop beat from scratch, sometimes I hear a krunk track and bust out the 808s, listen to ballads to get blueprints for RnB based tracks, in the midst of just listening, sometimes you run across that track that makes you say damn...that's a hot sample! IMO that's way better than looking, because when you're not looking, if you gotta sample it, it's usually a damn good sample.
Two things that annoy me are people who are positive out of ignorance, and people who are negative out of bitterness. People who are neither usually get along with me and agree with most of what I say. People who are one of the 2 think I'm the other.
