I came across Milk Crate Breaks yesterday and I downloaded around 11GB of free albums such as stuff by David Axlerod (his song "Holy Thursday," was sampled by Swizz Beats for Wayne's "Dr. Carter"), Nina Simone, and tons of other old soul musicians...it seems too good for ya'll not to already know about but I decided to give you the heads up just in case.
Another good thing is that for each album, it lists the artists that have sampled which songs already so i guess one could go and listen to whatever song to be sure not to make something too similar sounding
The best thing about this website is that the majority of the albums are hosted off mediafire (No waiting/no download limit) I took advantage of my college wireless yesterday and almost crashed my computer
