how the hell is that plunderphonics? It's not the description I got of plunderphonics. On second listen, I'm compelled to think this is a long collection of little snippets from Beatle songs used to recreate the song Birthday. What a tedious and pointless project.
Plunderphonics: "...taking one or more existing audio recordings and altering them in some way to make a new composition." Since John Oswald is supposed to be the father of plunderphonics, I was hoping that his work here would provide a good example. However, this seems more like just randomly cutting and pasting riffs from the original tune, creating a disjointed and lumbering new composition. I've heard hundreds of mashups and remixes that are far more clever and listenable than this.
And "2001: A Space Odyssey" is a better made film than "Birth of a Nation." John Oswald made "Birth" in 1989. Those far more clever and listenable mashups and remixes were made a decade or two (or two-and-a-half) later. I don't know if Oswald even had access to digital editing at the time this was made. For all I know it was made by hand-splicing chunks of audio tape. I'm honestly not trying to troll you. I'm just pointing out that historical context is crucial.
impecable
Amazing.

And people say Dab is unlistenable
It's almost easy listening, whereas Dab is more cruel, frontal and complex, if my memory does not trick me^^.
muy muy loco!
a non-misued sense of continuity is past-present, as it were.

sivadmg At first listen it sounds like merely cutting in and out of the original song which is not entirely clever.
+sivadmg john oswald literally invented plunderphonics
You described plunderphonics right there

This was done in the 1980s to put things in context and as a statement on copyright
