Well, using voice to replace instruments in music is called a capella. Don't think there's an actual trope for it. Sampling could be when taking different sound samples to make the song.

It's closer to Sampling insofar as, most of the time, the samples are treated as sound effects (of 1/4-2 seconds in length) and relooped as needed; as opposed to toned chant or actual sung words. Somewhat of a Sub-Trope of Sampling -based Remix then. Trying to think of a better name than Poop Remix.
