In this episode, I try to get my head around sampling and copyright law with regard to music, and end up learning about one of the most sampled recordings of all time, 'The Amen Break', which for years has been uncredited by producers from hip hop to drum 'n bass. We are also gifted with new releases from wily guitar wizard John Frusciante - all for free, and far-removed from his work with Red Hot Chili Peppers. Lastly, we remember the watershed moment in art-punk trio Yeah Yeah Yeahs career, where silky synth anthems began to assert their dominance on 2009's 'It's Blitz!'.

This week, I express my frustrations with award shows after finding out that my childhood friend was recently nominated for 2 MTV Video Music Awards as a co-director of the stunning music video for Irish singer-songwriter Hozier's 'Take Me To Church'. We also admire the confidence of indie rockers Foals in delivering their latest slice of arena-funk 'What Went Down', and soak up the wisdom from hip hop grandmaster GZA on his 2005 chess-themed concept album.
