On 15th October 2017, WhoSampled will host an all-day event at London’s Point Blank Studios, giving a group of beat makers and producers the opportunity to sample from KPM’s library.

“The challenge: to produce a new track using the provided sample material against the clock, with the supervision and assistance of our team of esteemed mentors,” says WhoSampled.

Three winners will then be selected by a panel of judges, including Shawn Lee (Ubiquity), Ollie Teeba (Ninja Tune), Chris Read (BBE/WhoSampled) and Mr. Thing. The tracks will be released on vinyl via KPM / EMI.
