An in depth look into how Akira Yamaoka utilized samples in for the SH soundtracks:

Another shorter video with some various samples put on display; some may have not been in the previous video:

A brief deconstruction of the drums in "Betrayal":

The concept of sampling, in both audio and visual arts, I find incredibly fascinating. Also, I find it funny to think that there are at least two instances of a SH track and a Spyro track using the same recurring sample: Sickness Unto Foolish Death/Idol Springs and Butcher Battle/Scorch's Pit.

How Silent Hill's music was made
In here is a tragedy, art thou player or audience?
Be as it may, the end doth remain:
all go on only toward death.
...
There is nothing which cannot become a puppet of fate
or an onlooker, peering into the cage.

I have seen this process (sampling) done first hand. The amount of creativity that is needed is startling.
I'm going to town either way.

The tracks Futhswatering #2, Submarine Brave, Elvis: LIVE!, from the Bombay Bar 'n' Grill (I think), Sentry, and To Burble & Pine were used in Silent Hill 0rigins, namely "Battle Drums" and "The Wicked End". Unrelated, but I think "Merry, The Big Machine" was used for "The Swamp's Dark Center" in the first Sly Cooper game.
10/3 Edit:

Sample used during the final cutscene with Eddie in SH2, as well as in "Acid Horse" from the SH0 OST.
Trying to avoid spam-posting here, hard to differentiate between sharing a new discovery/furthering discussion and spamming right now.
