Samplebrain chops samples up into a 'brain' of interconnected small Samplebrain (made in 2015) chops samples up into a 'brain' of
sections called blocks which are connected into a network by interconnected small sections called blocks which are connected into a
similarity. It processes a target sample, chopping it up into blocks network by similarity. It processes a target sample, chopping it up
in the same way, and tries to match each block with one in it's brain into blocks in the same way, and tries to match each block with one in
