So...sample this :beerchug:

I would have to say the entire "3 Feet High & Rising" album by De La Soul. Either that or "It Takes A Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back" by PE.

I can only think of one that I liked.

Gangsta Paradise by Coolio.

So...sample this :beerchug:0

Now your talking something I can get behind :yes:

Hey guys
Drybasement mention Gangsta Paradise by Coolio. :thmbsp:
what about Prog Rap....? :naughty:

I love this Forum. :yes:

clint.

Didn't Coolio threaten Weird Al for doing a cover of Gangster Paridise on national television?Stevie Wonder should have reamed both of them.I want to write a new book and will sample from the following novels,WTF?

Stevie Wonder should have reamed both of them.

Dude, Stevie Wonder performed it live WITH Coolio!! Coolio was on People's Court recently. I love Judge Milian!! :thmbsp:

Tupac original 2pacalypse now album from 1991.

Snoop Dog - Riders on the storm.
Puff Daddy - I'll be missing you.
Rammstein & Eminem - My name is.

Keep on sampling.
clint.

Stevie Wonder and Will Smith-Wild Wild West
And Ive got to agree with Mg on It Takes a Nation Of Millions to Hold Us Back,Terminator X was IT.
Im curious.Did all those artists in the mid-late 80's have to go back and pay royalties to the artists they sampled?If so,than George Clinton and James Brown are VERY rich men now.Sampling mellowed out a lot after Tone-Loc got sued by Van Halen for the sample of the riff from Jamies Crying on Wild Thang.Damn,that sample wasnt even the original record,it was just another guitar playing that sample!Kinda funny since Van Halen made millions doing "you really got me",Where have all the good times gone","pretty woman",etc.

The first MAJOR lawsuit was against MARRS for that "Pump Up The Volume" song.

If you remember, another big sampling lawsuit was against De La Soul for using a Turtles sample (1989).

Brown and Clinton were always very open to artists using samples of their work and essentially gave everything away for free. I think the drums to "Funky Drummer" is the most popular sample of all time!!

I dont think EVERY musician who was sampled was paid royalties. After all, the vast majority of rappers never made a dime and many of their record companies went belly-up after a very short time. Albums like "3 Feet High & Rising" by De La were smash hits, so a lawsuit was gonna pay BIG.

On another tangent, for all of those people out there that think HipHop and sampling are a waste of space, think about other artists that sampled LONG before the 80's. Ummm...the Beatles (Revolution 9 utilized orchestral recordings), Charlie Haden, and numerous Reggae artists. Eno, David Byrne...hell, THE TEMPTATIONS (Psychedelic Shack)!

2 pac is the best even though hes dead and then notories B.I.G. But i like 2 pac better he talkes about the life in the ghetto. And i also like comptons most wanted, bone thugs n harmony is good too. 2 pac was originaly born in new york just in case you didnt know but he died in La he killed 2 police before he died.

Puff Daddy & The Family - No Way Out.

See you later Dog. :thmbsp:

clint.

tupac was gunned down in vegas and i'm pretty sure he never killed any police unless they died laughing when he was a back-up dancer for digital underground

George Clinton was open to sampling from the get and didn't charge up the ass. I guess he knew he could make more money by not being a prick about it, Unlike so many others. But I wonder how much of his catalog he lost. I heard he put up the rights to some of his meterial as collateral to a loan and lost. Knowledge anyone? James on the other had was resistant at first but the mid to late 80s revived his career while he was locked up and getting into high speed police chases with one hand on the wheel, the other holding a shotgun, and wet joint in his mouth getting dusted.

Talking about samples...what about trip-hop samples...?!
For those who do not know what is Trip-Hop,let me tell you this :
Trip-hop production is historically lo-fi, relying on analog recording equipment and instrumentation for an ambience.
The trip-hop sound relies on jazz samples, usually taken from old vinyl jazz records. This reliance on sampling has changed the way record labels deal with clearing samples for use in other people's tracks. Trip-hop tracks often sample Rhodes pianos, saxophones, trumpets, and flutes, and develops in parallel to hip hop, each inspiring the other. :thmbsp:

A true story :

ENO :thmbsp:

WHILE the rest of the band were mixing the B-side of the new single, Eno was sitting in the control booth with a set of logtables, a notebook, and a rapidly-blunting pencil. "I woke up this morning," quoth he, " with a theory about prime numbers." The column of numbers in the notebook grew apace.

With stripey-dyed hair and pallid maquillage, Eno operates the band's synthesiser, prepared tapes, and other electronic aids. He also does a nifty line in back-up vocals. Having spent his early years near a USAF base, his interest in rock is long-term ("We used to get the new American records from the PX stores"). At art school in Ipswich in the mid-Sixties, he discovered the properties of the common domestic tape recorder - and within three or four years, had amassed no less than 30 such devices.

" I realised that there were certain areas of music you could enter without actually learning an instrument which at my age I certainly wasn't about to do." At Winchester School of Art between '66 and '69, he made himself president of the Students' Union, and spent the union funds on hiring prestigious avant-garde musicians to come and lecture - mostly to himself. He also collaborated with some of the famous men: Cornelius Cardew, Christian Wolff, John Tilbury, Morton Feldman. Influenced by Cardew's piece called 'School Time Composition', Cage's book 'Silence' and the Systems Artists ("Their emphasis is on the procedures rather than the end product"), he was brought to Reading University to lecture by one Andrew Mackay.

Some years later, when Andy had just met Bryan, Andy and Eno bumped into each other on the Tube and Eno was invited to join the group, playing Andy's VCS3 Synthesiser. Now he uses four tape machines at home, transferring the results to an Ampex cassette machine for gigs. Soon he'll be getting a new synthesiser, incorporating a memory circuit which will retain any sequence of notes, up to 256 in fact. It'll also have various custom devices including phasers and phase shifters and "a device which gives the effect of quad in two speakers - honest!" He's also about to acquire a special long-delay echo unit, which will delay its repeat anything up to 15 minutes.

"At the moment, I'm mostly interested in modifying the sound of the other instruments. You get a nice quality - the skill of the performer, transformed by the electronics. Neither the player nor I know what each other is going to do - which means you get some nice accidents."
