    Man, that bass sample is insane. It's like the people who made that song just wanted to be sampled.

      I know exactly what you're saying - it's so rare to find the bass notes so isolated like that! I remember an old DJ Shadow interview where he said the hardest parts to find for The Private Press were bass samples.

      Must be bad drummers, or they’re thinking of two two HH notes at the end vs the main section on the ride? 🤷‍♂️

    • @Champiness
      @Champiness 2 года назад +5

      It’s one of the MCs from a 1982 Grand Wizard Theodore set yelling ‘hooo’ (in classic “somebody in the house say ‘hooo’” fashion) but the tape recording/monitor is so blown out that it ends up sounding like a siren
      (Pretty sure it was used to similar effect on “Hold My Liquor” by Kanye West)
