Battle record

The samples and drum loops are used for scratching and performances by turntablists.

The most famous example of this format is Super Duck Breaks, a 1996 release by "The Turntablist," a pseudonym of DJ Babu.

[2] Battle records that get released to the general public are often made by DJs banking on their celebrity or looking to capitalize on rare items in their collections.

Often, the samples featured on these records do not have the blessing of the original copyright holders.
