Not rap but Midnight Tyrannosaurus makes great use of samples

Anyone know the name if there is one of this sound? Hear it a lot in Hollywood movies specifically war of the worlds alien noise. Best sound to exist.

The Swordsman beat is so nasty and dark honestly the only two people who can claim to reach the bar set would be el-p and dj paul from 3 6

Coke Escovedo's Hangin' On in King Geedorah's track "Fastlane".

Mf Doom - Rap Snitch Knishes

Most of Wu Tangs stuff
Swords - Raekwon

Even years later, I'm stilled puzzled by MF DOOM's sample of Arthur Verocai - Na Boca do Sol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8zPRXKXFbro
>>
>>63773745
dopest tune. Haven't showed this to a single person who didn't love this song. I had no idea DOOM sampled it?!
>>
>>63773745

Yeah that clever nigga did, in Orris Root Powder, crazy stuff http://www.whosampled.com/sample/29965/Metal-Fingers-Orris-Root-Powder-Arthur-Verocai-Na-Boca-Do-Sol/
>>
imo DOOM should never have touched it. Doesn't have anything on the OG. It's just one of those samples that are too good to be chopped up

I like that they sample household appliances and make it sound good.
>>
>>63773849

I can understand your feeling but that's the point where we disagree.
What I'm happy about it nevertheless is that people might discover new music thanks to the samples used in songs, here this beautiful piece of art.
>>
>>63773999
True. Definitely deserves to be heard by more people

3030 sample is the stuff of legends. Best rap concept album of all time.

GZA samples goddamn Frank Zappa for Cold World and that shit is tight.

not hip hop, and not the best ever or anything, but i always loved this and thought it was really clever

I bought the record and thought he was going to get some sweet jazz funk to sample
>>
>>63774943
I bet he bought the record*
>>
>>63768890

that album has easily the best opener (and closer) in all of rap. shame so many versions butchered it with that bonus track.
>>
How about the weirdest sample choices?
I was listening to Ludacris' latest album a few months back and almost had a spit take when Billy Talent of all bands was sampled.
>>
not much a fan of TLOP but the Arthur Russell sample on 30 Hours was brilliant

The sampling in this was actually incredible, Liam Howlett is a genuis.

>>63776092
I thought it was kinda interesting/funny. At least he's enjoying himself
>>
>>63773988
What is this?
>>
Literally anything produced by Madlib or Premo. Havoc is also brilliant on the first two Mobb Deep albums, The Infamous in particular. Dilla has his moments also.

Jeru The Damaja - Come Clean
Gang Starr - Above the Clouds
Mos Def - Mathematics
Mos Def - Auditorium
Jaylib - The Official
Slum Village - Fall In Love
>>
>>63776165
I'm assuming you mean the 2nd and 3rd Mobb Deep album and forgetting about Juvenile Hell

anyway Players is GOAT Dilla

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceJJpuREXm0
>>
>>63776215
Oh yeah, I'm an idiot. I always forget about Juvenile Hell given how much better the next two albums are.

Also, De La Soul - Stakes Is High is another brilliant Dilla beat.
>>
Guys do you actually know what a sample is ?

I mean, you're posting nice production work and all that shit but I'd be nice if you could also post the sample used in the tracks.
>>
>>63776449

I mean, I may not always know where a sample is from, but I can when what I'm hearing is not another DJ/producer tool like a drum machine
