It's tough to say which are best (far too many good ones), but I like: 1. Kid Koala - Scratchcratchratchatch - "I would just like to start out by saying that if Shakespeare were alive today he would be well over 400 years old." Don't know why. Just makes me chuckle when the guy says it. and 2. Luke Vibert - Studio Sessions Vol 1 Track 2 - "The kick goes boom, the snare goes pop..." To anyone who has heard all of track 2 from this album, you gotta give props to Luke for creating some of the phatest vocal sampling around. I also like "Bust the beat" and his use of Digable Planets set to flute loop. By far the best though is when he starts fuckin with one of the best (and longest) uses of onomatopoeia in songs. Absolutely golden. Also, for anyone who's heard the track, is there some kind of congruency between the baselines and melody samples? Every drumbeat he uses is the Beastie Boys, I know that, but in addition to Flute Loop (as melody) I managed to spot some PE (I think) and others. Cheers PS. Where does that "The kick goes boom..." sample come from? Also who is the MC on track 3? I've heard Mos Def sample "The more emotion I put into it the harder I rock" before. (And speaking of good samples, Mos Def has plenty). _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
