Hi there,

A lot for spare time over here, the classes have ben cancelled due to the influenza edpidemic, so I decided to share some of this and ask for more:

I've been currently hearing some hip hop stuff, and got me thinking about the soulful samples. Of course the best known is The Rockafeller Skank, but there's more (quality, IMO) stuff around:

Kanye West - Touch The Sky (feat. Lupe Fiasco) with Move On Up By Curtis. Great track!

Kanye West - Gold Digger (feat. Jamie Foxx) sampling I've Got A Woman by Ray Charles...

He also samples Home Is Were The Hatred Is by Gill-Scott Heron, but it's not as good as this couple. They're all from his Late Registration album...

I've hard theres alot of tracks featuring The Mohawk's Champ, but I don't know any of them. Anyone?

Cheers,

Dante

Off the top of my head... indie pop band Spearmint's single "Sweeping The Nation" samples "Out On The Floor" by Dobie Gray to pretty good effect...

Delfhonics - ready or not -Fugees

Chi-Lites - we are neigbours - Groove Armada

Teddy Pendergrass- You cant hide from yourself - Ilicit Gramma Funk

Gwen Mcrea -All this love that Im giving - Cassius

Bill withers - I cant write left handed -Fatboy slim

SOUL -Burning Spear-ETA

there must be millions my kids play me music and I play guess the sample

Only recent tune I know that sampled Frank Wilson's DILYIID. It's at the end of the tune, starts at 2:58. Nice vid too if you're not afraid of some mild nudity

Hi there,

Kanye West - Gold Digger (feat. Jamie Foxx) sampling I've Got A Woman by Ray Charles...

is this a sample ? i thought the vocal in this was done by jamie foxx so it's not actually sampling the ray charles track

Yeap, the vocals are done by Foxx, but if you listen carefully, it has some small rythm samples...

We had a bit of fun with a similar thread back in October called 'Any sampled tunes where the result was better than the original' or something like that. If you search for Lola's Theme, which was one of the tunes mentioned at the start, you should find it. There were some great ones in there. Armand van Helden's You Don't Know Me, and Stardust's Music Sounds Better With You for starters.

Don't let the pig flu get you down man.
