Man nehme mehr als 200 Musiker aus 25 verschiedenen Ländern der Welt und lasse jeden etwas aufnehmen. Keiner hat jemals einen anderen getroffen. Das Ergebnis, kuratiert von Addictive TV (Graham Daniels and Mark Vidler aka mash-up guru Go Home Productions) ist einzigartig - das "Orchestra of Samples" ihr Debüt-Album.

As Addictive TV, Daniels and Vidler have been at the forefront of audio and video mash-ups and AV shows for nearly two decades, and whilst successfully touring the world in recent years, Orchestra of Samples became a vital part of their travels. “Orchestra of Samples is an exploration of serendipity,” explains Daniels. “Taking extra equipment to nearly every show on our Addictive TV gigs, we recorded and filmed hundreds of musicians from Brazil to Senegal, China to Kazakhstan, across Europe and even in Egypt during the Arab Spring. From these, we cut up thousands of samples to create new music, recontextualising musicians as if they were playing together. The musicians all improvised and the samples dictated the direction in the studio.”
Graham and Mark have already received worldwide acclaim for their live Orchestra of Samples audiovisual shows, with each track taking shape on screen as the filmed performances of individual musicians appear. The show has been performed at major international festivals including Celtic Connections in Scotland, TransitioMX in Mexico, Pirineos Sur in Spain, Romaeuropa in Italy and the Timitar Festival in Morocco.
