For those who don't know, Stereolab are a French/English band with a unique combination of all kinds of influences like jazz, indie, 50s and 60s scifi type sound effects, bossa nova, easy listening etc - I believe Dilla was a fan also

Rules:
Sample any of the provided tracks however you like, or any other Stereolab song
Their sound is pretty consistent so the challenge/source material should still be similar for everyone even with the very open rules
No outside melodic/chord samples
Everything else allowed
If anyone wants to search around youtube/online/their collection for other Stereolab songs feel free!
I also found this 8 bit version of Emperor Tomato Ketchup that has a lot of cool bitcrushy/lofi sounding material
Happy beatmaking!
