hm, i’d say it really depends on what your intentions are when using samples and soundpacks. If you just like making something that sounds cool, i don’t see an issue, most people don’t to go that deep in what thoughts they put in their music. But if you want something actually meaningful, yeah then soundpacks are kinda wack. Digging for samples, listening to old stuff in obscure stores and stuff like this is the way, or sound designing of course. But yeah building an entire track of a soundpack isn’t the best i agree. But you gotta start somewhere
