  1. Midnight in a Perfect World

    1996 · Mo' Wax

    Ranked No. 4 in Trip-Hop

    Assembled entirely from other people's records and somehow completely personal. Shadow proved sampling could be authorship rather than borrowing.

  2. Midnight in a Perfect World

    1996 · Mo' Wax

    Picked by The Waxonia Desk — The Hundred

    Built entirely from other people's records and yet unmistakably one person's. The high point of sampling as a compositional discipline rather than a shortcut.
