That one is a lot more enlightening as to the creative process for this kind of music.
(Of course the prodigy didn't do it like that, all point and click. There would have been a lot more twiddling of knobs and generally wigging out with actual hardware.)

#6On a side note: How does the whole legal process work? I mean, the original tracks, or at least parts of it, are taken from a song and re-sampled to create something new. So far so good. But is everybody allowed to do it or do you have to ask the original creator for permission, especially if you want to use the new sample in/as commercial products?

Well, it’s probably possible to make a very decent argument that this falls under fair use in the US (though fair use is quite US specific). Making a fair use argument, however, is always challenging and very much up to interpretation. There is little legal certainty in relying on fair use.
In practice, however, at least big acts always get clearance for the use of samples. That removes the legal uncertainty that would surround a fair use argument.

Those don’t cover sampling.
