The Books were an American duo, formed in New York City in 1999, consisting of guitarist and vocalist Nick Zammuto and cellist Paul de Jong. Their releases typically incorporated samples of obscure sounds and speech. They released three critically acclaimed albums on the German label Tomlab, and released their fourth studio album, The Way Out, on Temporary Residence Limited in July 2010.
History
1999–2002: Thought for Food
Zammuto and de Jong first met in New York City in 1999 as they shared the same apartment building. De Jong invited Zammuto to dinner at his apartment, where he played him some of his collection of audio and video samples, including a Shooby Taylor record. Zammuto said of their meeting that "we both kind of knew at that moment that we listened (to music) in interesting ways and had similar approaches to music." Soon after, they began playing what they considered to be pop music, in comparison to their own works, under the name The Books.

The Art of Sampling - The Books | Roots
Auditory sampling has been done a lot in music, but nobody has done it like The Books have. Nick Zammuto and Paul de Jong used samples in conversation with one another to highlight the importance of every moment in life and convey ideas without lyrics. They truly are brilliant, and this video essay explores how they use samples to create art. This is how the Books sample in music.
