    While someone somewhere will bitch about it and say I’m not being creative enough or I should have my own sound

      Exactly, we’re all stood on the shoulders of giants. Plus, The Prodigy are notorious and proud sample / sound / melody pirates, so I’m just following in their footsteps haha. Thanks for saying that though!
