I'll take a guess and say it was originally from George Lucas's THX-1138. Finally rented it last week. While watching the movie, I noticed something like every 2 minutes or so there was soundbite used later in tracks by Reload, FSOL, T Power, etc. etc. It was like the same feeling I got watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory for the first time, and hearing that sample "We are the music makers..." that Aphex Twin used on SAW I. BTW: From THX-1138.... comes the best soundbite in the world: If you are not properly sedated, call [number]. Failure to do so will result in prosecution for criminal drug evasion. Aaron
