For my part rules are great to practice your beatmaking flow, open news doors, leave your comfort zone at times, learn techniques of sampling and mixing.
After all I understand some people can be limited by their insturments.
I download the sample if I like my chops, sounds good or not, the vibe... i drop or not (a bit like sonicskater)
after all I'm here to have fun and especially to leave an artistic prit in this world, I already know that I would never be a real musisian.
I think the rules are great for peoples who want to spice up their sessions, nothing prevents you from making an non entry.
Here my entry. remaked classic break whit XLN adictive drums and some sample chops enjoy
