And another super TED talk by mr mark ronson ….

Sampling isn’t about “hijacking nostalgia wholesale,” says Mark Ronson. It’s about inserting yourself into the narrative of a song while also pushing that story forward. In this mind-blowingly original talk, watch the DJ scramble 15 TED Talks into an audio-visual omelette, and trace the evolution of “La Di Da Di,” Doug E. Fresh and Slick Rick’s 1984 hit that has been reimagined for every generation since.

His production credits range from Amy Winehouse to Paul McCartney — ace DJ, musician and producer Mark Ronson has lived recent music history from the inside out.
