Remixing and sampling music is similar: a remix is a new version of a song made by adding, removing, or rearranging its pieces, while sampling is taking one or more pieces of an existing song and using them in an otherwise new work. In both cases, reuse or rearrangement of existing music occurs, and it's often delightful to hear old favourite tracks reappear in new forms. For this bounty, we want to hear the best examples you can think of.
So tell us about your favourite remixes or sample-based songs and add a link to either the official video or to the song on a streaming service. The best 20 submissions get $1 apiece! Bonus points for obscure samples (did you know Destiny's Child's Bootylicious is a sample? We didn't.)
Remember, your submission must be a new version of an existing song (a remix) or use elements of an existing song in an otherwise new song (a sample), and it must include a link to the song or its video.
Task: Share one or more of your favourite remixes or sample-based songs
Format: Original writing or videos, of any length, with third-party links
