The strange thing is that I noticed this very same thing except about a
different sample. Anyone who owns both Crime's (AKA Crispin J. Glover)
"Don't Fake It" 12" on Nuphonic and the Plug LP will find that the
sample on the B-Side "Breaking Point" is the same as that on "I Freak
Techniques", but...the Plug LP came out before said 12". Of course, it
could be a old sample that they both used, but on the Crime record it
seems to change and doesn't just sound like a continuous loop. Anyway
for those who want to spot along with me, the vital info is that
a)The Plug LP the sample appears about a third of the way into the track
(no track times - this is the vinyl we're talking about here and I'm not
getting the spotter stopwatch out!)
b)It doesn't stay for long
c)The cunning, yet nasty and evil Mr Vibert has speeded it up so that it
will loop at d&b tempo - but even that can't disguide his dirty stealing
tactics.
Spooky indeed...
Gb.
PS Haven't heard the Spooky track in question, but just out of interest,
what Plug track does this bassline appear in and (approx) where. I'm
sure there's much sample spotting to be done on this LP as it sounds
stuffed to the gills...
