Beginning and end tracks are my own productions
I know there have always always been original beats that are fire. But sampling is why Hip Hop is what it was and still is, in my heart.
Yeah hip hop was born on sampling and I think will be that way for a long time.
TOTALLY AGREE. Sampling is what made all the hip hop classics possible. Samples are a magical thing in rap music. I'd favor that any day.
Hip Hop is pure SHIT because of sampling. It’s because the “creators” DIDN’T have the talent, inspiration and skills to come up with the most intrinsic hook of their shitty beat. HipHop/Rap “producers” and “engineers” are absolute jokes.
Stealing shit and not making your own shit
Was that Vin Diesel break dancing at 3:50
A Tribe Called Quest with its Q-tip's legendary beats and Phife's insanely chill flow cannot be beaten by anyone else, they simply rule jazz rap!
One of my fav groups still
They would take offense to you calling them jazz rap
Wtf is jazz rap
@@johngoldsworthy7135 why would they?
@@UnseenEternalStudios a fusion of jazz and rap, look it up...
All the tribe basslines were all so instantly recognizable
Yes they really are. It’s great listening to the original too. There might be a 12 minute track and about 7 minutes in there’s one little part of the bass that you will notice from one of their tracks.
This is why the bassline will always be the most powerful
It can really make or break a track
holding a bass as i read this.
@@ChaseThePinballWizardcook
Havoc is a super underrated producer, he murdered that sample
Yep he’s an amazing producer for sure. Some of the early Mobb Deep sample flips were crazy.
there's a ton of rappers who also did amazing work at production and didn't get that much recognition, but havoc's at other level, he produced, in my humble opinion, the best beat of all time
on god shook ones pt2 is an absolute masterpiece of a beat. imo the best beat EVER
Yes, he rates pretty low.
Havoc rates pretty low? That’s the most crazy comment I’ve ever heard
I'm always amazed by the amount of music you had to know in order to make a beat in the past.
Yeah it’s too easy now with endless amounts of music on streaming
It just takes a good ear and creativity tbh. I've dug through crates and bought records just by looking at the cover and I could hear some great potential samples from music I never heard before.
I do the same. Often the cover of a record shows it might have some interesting things on to sample.
@@DJFurio on the other hand some french chansons i got for free had insane potential too, that I didn't expect hahaha
Nice
Can't have funk, disco, house, or hip-hop without bass. And it started with jazz, arguably classical before that. A great rhythm section is the foundation of all dance music.
Yeah so many big tracks where the bass completely drives them.
running parallel to jazz was calypso from Trinidad. From the early 1900s or so. Used the same instruments, like the standing bass, plus some indigenous ones. Different but similar. Riddim section is a must.
jazz didnt come from classical, it came from african influences and military drumming
@@jwlsiee Jazz was an integration of all of the above. There is a clear influence of European musical theory, instrumentation and compositional style that served to augment African & Indigenous/Native American modalities and rhythms. That is why Jazz is *the* American art-form.
Fun fact: Eminems “my name is” sample from Labi Siffres “I got the…” (bass and keys)is actually played by British duo Chas and Dave!
That’s the most mental fact I’ve ever heard but I know it’s true. They were both session musicians in the 70’s before making all their cockney hits.
@@DJFurio it’s hard to conceive haha! Sweet vid btw 👍 I didn’t know a lot of these original records.
Glad you like the video. Thanks for watching.
Another slightly less interesting thing about the song the beat switch at the end of "I've got the blues" was used for JAY-Z streets is watching
@@DJFurio Nuff respect and thanks for your hard work!
I got the hardest Goosebumps when Meat Grinder played. RIP Supervillain!
I was lucky enough to see him live a few years ago.
Man, I really REALLY appreciate you making this. So many dope songs and badass beats. Great memories of growing up.
Glad you like it. Thanks.
I'd always heard that Rapper's Delight was an imitative performance of Good Times rather than a direct sample
Yes it is. It’s been replayed to sound the same. Not a direct sample. Dr. Dre often does this too as you only have to pay the original composer of the music rather than the recording artist too when clearing samples.
@@DJFurio How much money can you save like that ? We just heard that Puff has to pay Sting $5,000 A DAY ! For the rest of his life ! That's more than a Million Dollars a year !
It can save a fortune and also a lot easier to do. A lot of songs that have been successful are either cover versions of older songs or have been written by someone else. In that case it doesn’t matter if the well known recording artist agrees for the sample to be used or not. It’s just whoever wrote the music that has to agree.
@@DJFurio btw bro, meat grinder is from 2004. Otherwise you did great with this video! I like how you put 1992 for halftime as that’s when the single dropped instead of the album
Yeah I know I got the year wrong. I forgot to update the year from the previous track when u copied and pasted the text. And yeah I always try to show the year for the earliest release of the tracks. Some often come out on promo too well before the album drops or even the official single.
The baseline of chic good times was also the inspiration for Queen’s Another One Bites The Dust
First time I’ve heard that
i always wondered if this was the case!!
Also I just read that Nile rodgers quoted that good times was partially inspired by Hollywood swinging by kool and the gang. I can definitely hear it in the baseline.
I used to be like wait is the song called good times or another one bites the dust as a kid then it really got interesting with rappers delight
There's a very popular song by brazillian rapper Gabriel o Pensador called 2345meia78, and it samples that bassline as well
I still get chills when Excursions plays
Great track
My favorite bassline sample will always be Can I Kick It with Walk on The Wild Side
Tribe Called Quest's sample of Red Clay has to be my favorite ever.
Great sample. I’ve shown it here ruclips.net/video/ocpr6YrRPA4/видео.html
I’m with you
I was waiting for that to come up too! Really cool original tune too
They stopped the music programs in the schools in the late 60’s early 70’s, and look what was created. It’s poetic.
Amazing music
I knew there'd be a lot of A tribe called quest in there, great video
Yeah one of my fav hip hop groups of all time and they live to use jazz basslines in their tracks.
It does make sense that there’s a correlation between jazz/soul/funk music being sampled by rappers for their songs because they (or they parents/grandparents) would’ve being listening to them whilst growing up
A nice bass that's filtered and amplified in any song is beautiful. So many bass samples, from rock, country, rnb, reggae, etc
Yeah a good bass can really make a track. There were some others that are amazing but they didn’t use samples so they didn’t get included. Dead Prez - Hip Hop was one of them.
fUNNY HOW WE DON'T CARE ABOUT THE MUSICIANS WHO MADE THE ACTUAL MUSIC, THESE CLOWNS STOLE! BUT Y'ALL LOOK AT THE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T PLAY A MUSICAL INSTRUMENT TO SAVE THEIR LIFE AS MUSICAL GENIUS!
THX... I note that Preemo doesn't just pick it sample, he s one the only who flip it!!! 😎🔥🔥🔥✌️🙏
That Mathematics chop is crazy
I really didn’t realize how often upright bass was sampled.
Yeah lots of jazzy hip hop tracks have sampled them.
Yeah man.🔥 Some bangers there. Biggie R.I.P. good to see Pharaoh Monch in there. Tribe always good. Nas top samples.
Appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed watching. Thanks.
If you bobbed your head throughout the whole entire video, you got soul. ✊😊
Agreed
Crazy how many dope sample are from Bob James
He’s made some amazing music. I did a sample video about him here ruclips.net/video/jgTXbzvp8EA/видео.html
I had completely forgotten about that clip of Vin Diesel
Funny clip
Great video. Didn't know a lot of these.
I did notice that you included "I Got The..." by Labi Siffre for the Eminem sample, but didn't mention that Jay-Z also used a different part of the song for "Streets is Watching". At any rate, awesome job compiling all these.
Glad you like the video and discovered some new samples. I’ve really just shown the most famous use of the samples for this particular video. Some samples have been used hundreds of times over the years. In some of my older videos I’ve shown 4 or 5 uses back to back on certain samples.
I thought that was also the sample for Can it be so simple 🤔
Definitely not the same sample for Wu-Tang. I showed the one they used in this video.
Being able to find half of these songs on Spotify is truly a blessing.
Spotify is good but I have a lot of vinyl that’s not on any streaming
You did a totally amazing job with doing all your research. This had to be time, consuming, and everything much props to you and respect I’ve been telling people about some of those songs that people thought were original from the new artist never knowing about the history that’s why I tell people if you want great songs and you want to do good samples, take yourself to the library and look some of those old songs up because they still have real vinyl records and that’s where the best sound comes from
Appreciate it. Thanks. And the best sound does come from vinyl I agree.
Very classy move using PD Bass in your video! Huge thumbs up 👍!
Yeah he’s done some great stuff. Talented guy.
Hit 'em up immediately came to mind when I heard that 'Don't look any further' sample
Yeah it’s been sampled a lot.
That shit done Been sampled so many times lmao
Way of Life by Lil Wayne is what popped into my head.
I was able to guess which tracks used samples about 65% of the time. I don’t have an ear for music, I’m not as talented as the producers that sampled the tracks but - it just makes my heart happy! I love US!
Nice
The last one was also sampled by Kwame for “The Rhythm “
Yeah it was
5:47 Also Hit em Up by Tupac
"Buggin Out" was all I needed to see.
Great track
*Eastside Low Bottoms sh*t !*
_Tappin' in from South Central LA_
3:50
5:43
Two of my all time favorites to lowride to !
Long Beach Love
@@SlapSoCold
*Eastside Low Bottoms sh*t !*
Yezirrrr !!
From the SC to the LB, nothing but love.
🤜🏾💥🤛🏾
Sugarhill apparently had the Good Times instrumental replayed live rather than sampling from the original . Good video.
Yes it’s definitely replayed based on the Chic track.
Finally the americas most blunted sample
It’s a great sample
I've been into hip hop for a long time and I produce music myself but it's so validating as a younger listener diving into the old school stuff to recognise so many of these samples
Glad you found some samples that you know
Sick video! The Don't Sweat The Technique sample was dope. Always happy to hear some Rakim
Glad you like it. Thanks
the bass that Stretching/ Rebirth of Slick provide can not be fcked with. genius.
Definitely a great sample
More Peas bass line is also used in the break of Cypress Hill's Real Estate, and the Diddy remix of Krs 1's Step into a World.
I used to do beat juggles with Cypress Hill track.
the atcq excursions bassline is too good
Yeah it’s a great sample
I think Muggs sampled 8:04 in "The Phuncky Feel One" also. These were fun.
Yes he used the same sample. It’s a pretty popular track as it’s been used quite a few times.
This might just be the greatest video on the entirety of RUclips.
Glad you like it.
that rza beat is crazy
Yeah it’s a good one
Digable planets are soo goood
Yeah I’ve liked them since they first started out
Bob James --Look-Alike also sampled by Kwame -- The Rhythm
Yeah great track. I just showed the Gang Starr version as I like the way Preemo chopped it up.
Great vid! Its cool to hear many of the original basslines then to hear how they were used in the song.
Glad you like it. Thanks
I'm glad pre-hip-hop producers eventually learned not to pan the bass hard to one side.
The Labi Siffre - I Got The also sounds very similar to the start of "Can it all be so Simple" by Wu Tang too
Mark Sinclair as a break-dancer was a fun video to see again! Funny I almost forget about him as a dancer now that he so swole
Yeah some old clips in here for sure
One of my lesser known favorite bassline samples: The Meters - Rigor Mortis, UGK - Front, Back & Side to Side.
Nice
so much goodness. its a lost art almost now. peace man.
Appreciate it. Thanks for watching.
That last sample was also on Kwame's "The Rhythm", 1987-ish
Yeah you’re right. It’s been sampled a few times.
1989
Kwame came instantly to my mind lol
there's one surprise for me among these. I always thought Masta Ace's producer programmed the bassline for Born To Roll. Never knew the Original Concept song, love it!
Glad you like it. I’m a big fan of his music. It’s actually Masta Ace that produced the track. He uses the alias Ase One for his productions.
@@DJFurio the more you know 🙂 thanks 👍
Glad I could help.
The only thing I took away from this video is that A Tribe Called Quest has a thing for sampling basslines and making those songs catchy.
My hip hop knowledge was pretty good for all songs pre 1992 (when I went to uni and moved to guitar music at the start of britpop) but when I think of HH's Chameleon I think DU, think they could have been represented more with Parliament etc
7:09 is also used in Only When I’m Drunk by Tha Alkaholiks
Yes. I’ve shown their use of it recently
this is my new favorite game, to hear the bassline and try to name what song it's gonna be.
It’s a fun game
3:31 How many people shouted "Get the fuck up" when Godzilla came on?
The day that I was sight-reading a bass tab whilst listening to Labi Siffre "I Got The..." and the beat changed... it blew my mind.
Nice work ! Well done !
Thanks
Was waiting for quest to pop up. Like everysong off low end theory could be in this video
It’s a long time ago but I did a sample video of every known sample from The Low End Theory here ruclips.net/video/pR0jjz8bQuk/видео.html
The ? Remainz flip was epic
Preemo flipped it so well. If you’ve not already seen it, check his So Wassup series where he discussed it. His original Bob James record he sampled was badly water damaged and he was meaning to buy another copy to use for the finished track. He actually liked how it sounded on the damaged version and used that one.
As someone who listens to both anus of uranus and can all be so simple all the time... HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THAT! 😂
I honestly don’t think many people are aware of it. It’s not a straight up loop and it only really stands out when you play the left speaker on its own.
It just shows the genius of Rza.
1:25 hi Marshall, yes I do
Simon says goes so hard. Amazing
Yeah it’s such a great track
i think 2pac's hit em up might also sample the [don't look any further] as well, it sound like it
Yes it’s the same sample. It’s a popular track and been sampled quite a lot of times.
Nice job for digging
Glad you like it. Thanks. We video all about piano samples dropping soon.
DAMN. I wish I would have thought of this! LMAO.
Haha. You feature in it twice I think. You make some great videos on your channel. Very talented.
Vin Diesel pop-locking!!!😂
5:43 2-pac's hit 'em up?
Yeah same sample. Replayed to sound like the original track. It’s a dis track towards Biggie and he used the sample sample on Gettin Money track with Junior Mafia.
"Head Banger" by EPMD, "Show Business" by Tribe, "Cradle 2 The Grave" by Mobb Deep & "Devil's Pie" by D'Angelo too >>>>
Definitely a lot more I could have included. From experience, about 10 minutes is the longest for a sample video to keep people’s attention.
Great video
Thanks for watching
I could listen to these for days 😂 good job. I appreciate the work on putting the whole video together.
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed it. I’m 75% through my next video which I should be dropping tomorrow.
Damn good video. Thanks a lot. Merci !
Thanks for watching
Bro, 1992 was one of the coldest years for hip hop
Jusy learn to play bass guitar, infinite bass lines for life.
I never use samples for my basslines. I always play my own.
I am learning the bass so I play on my own tracks
Nice
Amount of ATCQ pieces in this vid shows the real 'Low end theory'
Thank you Dj Furio🙏♥️
Thanks for watching.
This video is so dope
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks
I remember in the 90's when Treat'em right, by Chubb Rock, The Creator by Pete Rock and C.L. Smoove, were the hottest base lines out. There's a third but it escapes me.
i like Quiet Storm, rare bassline but dope and nuthin but a g thang simple but crazy
Yeah sometimes simple is the best
Dope💪🏿👊🏾👍🏿
Thanks
I miss the 90s
Wait Quiet Storm bass was a Grandmaster Flash sample?
Yeah the bass is definitely from there
Yep. Havoc just slowed it down. Genius.
Watch the video it's actually featured here
So you was that guy i saw on Linden Blvd and 193st nice………Got a new Sub 👌👌👌 #Queensinthehouse
Appreciate the sub but I’m from the UK so definitely not me who you saw.
The Sugarhill Gang's "Rappers' Delight" is not sampled, yes it's the Chic's Bernard Edward's Bassline from "Good Times" song, but the bass in "Rapper's Delight' was played live by a bass player in the recording studio.
Chip Shearin played the bass line on the recording of "Rapper's Delight" by Sugarhill Gang. Shearin was 17 years old at the time.
Other personnel on "Rapper's Delight" include:
Michael "Wonder Mike" Wright - vocals
Curtis "Grandmaster Caz" Brown - writer
Henry "Big Bank Hank" Jackson - vocals
Guy "Master Gee" O'Brien - vocals
Bernard Roland or Chip Shearin - electric bass
Albert Pittman or Brian Morgan - electric guitar
Moncy Smith - piano
Bryan Horton - drums
Yes it’s a replayed sample
@@DJFurio The point is that's not SAMPLE(D). It's Live Play Recording
That’s exactly what a replayed sample is. An interpolated sample of the original that’s been replayed to sound like it. 100% what it is. Many, many records list interpolated samples on the credits and have to pay for the publishing rights to use it. Check your facts
nice video
Glad you like it. Thanks for watching
Gotta have "Think (about it) " by Lyn Collins. The backing band is the JBs, with my friend Fred Thomas on bass. It's what Rob Base uses for "It takes two"...also includes the vocals.
Thoroughly enjoyed!
That’s great to hear. Thanks
Diamond D also used the bassline for "Hey Jude" as well...
WOW....u did some awesome research for this video....much respect from an OLD SCHOOL M'fr....SUBSCRIBED FOR REAL
Glad you like the video. Thanks.
sample at 3:53 was also used in Comin at You (Monsta Island Czars)
As far as that last one, the Bob James sample was used in a more familiar way by Kwame "the rhythm"
I just prefer the way it was chopped up by DJ Premier rather than just sampled and played as a loop. That’s why I decided to show that use of it.
Lol this video is basically the whole score of that movie Dope. Really good video, well done
Glad you like it. Thanks for watching.
Si Jefe .. ❤ jazz and hip hop the same thing ..
Yeah hip hop has a lot to thank jazz music for definitely
I sampled that same Charles Mingus lick thinking I was the first... shoulda known Premier already got to it 😅
Aww no. Denied. I’ve done that plenty of times too.
This is a list for all east coast rap
Not consciously but yes mostly
That seven minutes of funk was a jayz sample too i think its called aint no girl
