True artists love their message being spread far and wide. The only time when it's messed up is when much larger artists take significant portions of works without ever crediting the original. Otherwise, who cares? It just hampers artists at the end of the day.
Honestly all this has taught me is that James Brown is a musical and business genius, seeing the explosion in popularity of sampling coming down the line and rereleasing his music in easy to sample form specifically to cater to it, not only making him even more money but cementing him as one of the most important people in the artform. Edit: I don't know why everybody is acting like I called the man a gentleman and a saint. I said he had a shrewd head for business and music trends and leveraged it to make himself a permanent mark on history. So did P.T. Barnum, I don't think anybody would claim he's a role model.
@wednes3dayif youre talking about Clyde, thats just how business works. If you invent a new product or something while at work, on company time, that new idea then is usually owned by the company. You'd have to seperate yourself entirely, or have it in writing before hand, of any rights you retain. If you disregarded that kind of rule, in the eyes of a business owner, things could get out of hand fast.
@anthonynunyabizness9989 Just because something functions a certain way, doesn't mean it should and definitely not that it's good. We would've never progressed as a society, if everytime someone someone pointed out an injustice/problem we just said "well that's just how it is".
I can imagine a lot of breakcore borrows from previous music, as does many other genres, from within or without. Also I admit Powerpuff Girls is the only reason I know of the term "breakcore". Much like the "Deja Vu"/"Dance Dance Revolution" genre from "Eurocore".
@seraphin9sephir its a silent rebel against coprate AI and the invasion of privacy. Clippy (the paper clip icon from early versions of Windows) didnt read the papers you wrote on your computer, instead he suggested formats, fonts or other non invasive things. Nowadays AI is so invasive they scan every document, correct things and try to take the human feel out of documents. Long story short, if your pfp is clippy, its just a silent way of saying "im not dealing with this bullshit that corprations are shoving down our throats"
it's really sad that drummers like John Starks, Clyde Stubblefield and Gregory Coleman -- the man behind amen break -- received no royalties or recognition, despite gifting us with some of the most sampled and recognised drum breaks in history. While it's good that those breaks are free to use and we got a lot of cool and great songs because of it, it's a shame that their authors were barely acknowledged for it. It's especially heartbreaking for Coleman, who died homeless and unaware of the impact he made on music :(
Luckily the laws have been fixed to solve this issue but now a lot of artist just recreate the beat instead of sampling it but if it sampled they have to get permission and pay out right and give royalties on it
@F@FakedPvphat are you talking about? The drummer usually won’t own either the recording or composition rights. If they do, that’s some kind of agreement within the band and/or involving the publisher
as someone who knows nothing about music, the visual real time graphs really helped me able to watch video despite knowing nothing. Amazing timing, no slow talking or droning on, just informative and engaging. Amazing video honestly.
this really emphasizes how the music industry is built on the blood, sweat and tears of black musicians who won't get the recognition they deserve. thank you for giving them their flowers in this video ❤
While I agree that their contribution should be recognized and celebrated but I wonder if it is a sufficient example for such a large claim that the modern music industry is built on blood and sweat and tears of black musicians If you mean that it is partly built on it, then it is fair to say. But I would emphasize "partly" because music is built not only on the tears of black musicians.
Same! I've heard that in a bunch of different songs over the years. It really stands out; it's like the Wilhelm Scream of music samples - once you notice it, you hear it everywhere.
I actually only knew about the thing break because I used it in a song because the sample was in a pack that I downloaded somewhere, and my mom said she heard it in a song a long time ago, so I went on a search for the song and I found the original song it was sampled from.
Actually, that's the #1 thing that indie and up and coming artists sign to in a contract. ASCAP is responsible for protecting artists like that. ASCAP is the music equivalent of SAG-AFTRA.
1:58 is he trying to say at this point that James Brown‘s the funky drummer is literally the precursor or catalyst for drum & bass and breakbeat music?
@Cameron-cy4fy I just didn’t think that that sample was creating new genres. That’s why I was surprised and shocked, what’s wrong with her? You’re trying to make fun of me or something? If you are just fucking say so…
The funky drummer break sounds so good because the drum tone is so good, and Clyde's dynamics are also really good like compared to the artificial one made in this video it just pops, even if the pattern itself is simple, good tone, dynamics and recording quality just makes all the difference. Thanks for these stories!
Yeah. I didn't even get close with my artificial one and I spent quite some time with it. His original reallly is something. Probably well-miced-up as well
your videos are so viscerally pleasing to watch. the synchronization of visuals and audio is so seamless and beautifully designed. and not only that, but they're educational, AND the education is innately tied to and reinforced by the melding of video and audio. you truly are a master of your craft.
i recomand sampling Trouble Funk, its more bass heavy and uses a mix of a acoustic and a electronic drum. The kicks are often super sharp and the cymbals don't bleed as mush as acoustic drum loop like amen but i don't think Trouble could work for DnB due to how clean their drums are. Also Hippie's strut have a great drum break waiting to be sampled.
Perhaps you could have mentioned that both drummers, Clyde Stubblefield and John "Jabo" Starks, were James Brown's drummers and part of his band: The JB's. Both men also worked with other huge names in the industry. These two fantastic drummers were practically the founders of the funk sound we know today. Both men came from a gospel and blues background. Clyde was used more by James Brown as the heavy, fast funk drummer, and Jabo Starks more for slower or swing/shuffle numbers. But this doesn't pigeonhole them, because they were both equally good and could play virtually anything. These two of my heroes got me into drumming, which I've been doing for several years now, along with teaching drums. If you'd like to know more about them, their drumming, or their stories about how they created certain James Brown songs, there's a fantastic documentary interviewing them both. It also features guest appearances by other James Brown legends: Fred Wesley (trombone) & Fred Thomas (Bass Guitar). This documentary is also on RUclips: ruclips.net/video/x-xGOV7mkdo/video.html. Thanks for the amazing video again, Synthet! Your editing style is so satisfying!
my favorite realization of a sample being used was at a diner in the boonies. the song "son of a preacher man" by dusty springfield came on over the stereo and i was SO confused why this little country family diner would be playing "Hits from a bong" by Cypress Hill lol
Lay some respect on Bernard Edwards' name my man. A legendary bassist. As a bit of Trivia, Rodgers' released the song "I'll be there" with Chic in 2015, of note though is that the song is essentially just a cover of a song he and Edwards had writen for Sister Sledge way back in 1980. Supposedly, Rodgers deliberately intended to use the Edwards bassline to pay homage to his late best friend and partner in music, and thought it fitting to keep the guitar part he had written with him at the time
OMG YOU SOLVED MY BIGGEST QUESTION MARK EVER, I'VE WANTED TO KNOW WHERE THE "YEAH WOAH" COMES FROM FOR THE LONGEST TIME AND I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO LOOK FOR IT 😭😭😭😭😭
There could easily be a multi hour long documentary about sampling or copying in video games. The Sonic Rush soundtrack heavily relied on samples, the original Megaman used a famous chord that's been in many songs, IIRC there was another Nintendo game with a song based on the Japanese pop-folk song Hashire Kotaro. Many early games from before dedicated game soundtracks became a thing used bits of classical pieces; Wolfenstein 3D used a mix of original compositions by Bobby Prince and recreations of German marches; Hydlide, one of the first action RPGs, originally used a segment of the Toreador Song, but its later NES port replaced this with samples of the Indiana Jones theme of all things; and rather infamously a music box version of the Toreador Song is also played during a power outage in the original Five Nights at Freddy's.
5:18 Even deeper is that Good Times itself is taking inspiration from how funk artists approach a jam. The first bar is an ostinato on the tonic, followed by a bar of improvisation. Basically, the bass player defines a groove and root, then the rest of the players respond to it. Vulfpeck have a great track "3 on E" that nods to this directly. Once you notice the motif you can hear it everywhere across funk, disco, hip hop, etc
What’s your favorite sample of all time? There’s three hidden ones in this video too…
flowkey for piano lessons! go.flowkey.com/yt-synthet
Amen break
bro you forgot murder in my mind by kordhell which used the think break sample.
it got 1b streams on spotify.
Bro you forgot to mention musician by Porter Robinson and how they used that one sample mentioned here
UFO from ESG
as a dnb lover im all about the Amen break!
The fact that this entire video is basically a track itself transitioning between each sample is awesome.
I realized this about half way through and the rest was all the more fun to listen to.
Then you should go watch his other videos! They are all made like that, and they all groove like crazy
And isn't every song recreated by OP?! If so, wild.
I appreciated it’s one long song from start to finish
I really like how it’s subtly out of sync with the original copyrighted material to avoid strikes and demonetization
Imagine you play a drum groove so good you basically spawn a new genre of music based around it
Amen.
and get no money from it :/
Clyde Stubblefield and Jabo Starks. the Fathers of Drum and Bass
Drum n bass
dem bow riddim
the way my jaw DROPPED when hearing the "yeah woah" was sampled in Bill Nye (6:54). that's so crazy, samples really are everywhere.
When I listened to it a few years ago I thought, isn’t that from It Takes Two? Had no idea they sampled it too lol
Dude srsly. I immediately judge people who say sampling takes no creativity or artistry.
Had to go find it - it's also used in End of the world party - Haelos
Really good band
Ikr! The same beat was sampled in the black eyed peas music video transition from “imma be” to “rock that body”
The editing in this video is fucking killer, holy shit!
Hear hear!
fr
It really is insanely good
even watched the ad because i didn't want to break the flow
All of his videoes are pretty good edited.
Having your song sampled is the music equivalent of having a citation on your research paper
Except you miss out on millions of dollars due to "um it was actually interpolation I think you'll find"
my bachelor thesis on swedish people residing in spain keeps sitting there at 0 citations
@synthet7 i'm going to fard
@Salvation1326oh my god, how will shareholders survive sampling?

@wednes3dayif youre talking about Clyde, thats just how business works. If you invent a new product or something while at work, on company time, that new idea then is usually owned by the company. You'd have to seperate yourself entirely, or have it in writing before hand, of any rights you retain. If you disregarded that kind of rule, in the eyes of a business owner, things could get out of hand fast.

Something about this made me feel emotional
putting faces and names to some of the most iconic beats in music history is incredible
YOUAR E LY ING!!!!
1:44 the Powerpuff Girls jumpscare was such a pleasant surprise
How was it a jump scare it’s in the thumbnail
I can imagine a lot of breakcore borrows from previous music, as does many other genres, from within or without. Also I admit Powerpuff Girls is the only reason I know of the term "breakcore". Much like the "Deja Vu"/"Dance Dance Revolution" genre from "Eurocore".
@johnroberts524 possibly had a diff thumbnail, related to a yt feature where they test which thumbnail gets more clicks

And this is why drummers deserve songwriting credits FFS

While it's good that those breaks are free to use and we got a lot of cool and great songs because of it, it's a shame that their authors were barely acknowledged for it. It's especially heartbreaking for Coleman, who died homeless and unaware of the impact he made on music :(
This! I’m so mad there is little mention of this in the comments. I’m so mad they created these amazingly popular samples and got nothing in return 😢
Such is the life of many legendary artists.
Luckily the laws have been fixed to solve this issue but now a lot of artist just recreate the beat instead of sampling it but if it sampled they have to get permission and pay out right and give royalties on it
if not for them i wouldn't have Pendulum :(
@F@FakedPvphat are you talking about? The drummer usually won’t own either the recording or composition rights. If they do, that’s some kind of agreement within the band and/or involving the publisher

Lmaooo didn't catch this the first time around 😂
this really emphasizes how the music industry is built on the blood, sweat and tears of black musicians who won't get the recognition they deserve. thank you for giving them their flowers in this video ❤
So true.
that’s exactly what i was thinking! so many incredible black artists who revolutionised music with little to no credit.
While I agree that their contribution should be recognized and celebrated but I wonder if it is a sufficient example for such a large claim that the modern music industry is built on blood and sweat and tears of black musicians
If you mean that it is partly built on it, then it is fair to say. But I would emphasize "partly" because music is built not only on the tears of black musicians.
@whtand-liveI think it is sufficient, almost every genre of music in western society can be traced back and linked to black musicians
@nectarine1257 imo jazz was one of the biggest things to happen to the music industry
This is about the best produced video I have seen in a WHILE. Holy shit.
1:52 NOOOO, YOU CANT JUST ROB US OF BUTTERCUP'S GUITAR RIFF ON THE INTRO 😭😭

Yep, he only played Blossom's and Bubble's. 😂
It’s called avoiding copyright
@johnsonken96it’s called a joke
I've been looking for decades for the origin of the "Yeah Woah" sample and finally by pure luck this video gave me the answer. THANK YOU!!!
Same! I've heard that in a bunch of different songs over the years. It really stands out; it's like the Wilhelm Scream of music samples - once you notice it, you hear it everywhere.
ok
I actually only knew about the thing break because I used it in a song because the sample was in a pack that I downloaded somewhere, and my mom said she heard it in a song a long time ago, so I went on a search for the song and I found the original song it was sampled from.
didn't look very hard then😅
WhoSampled would have told you in 45 seconds
So basically what i gleaned from this is - happy black history!
This should be a lesson to all musicians that if you come up with a piece of music make sure you get some recognition for a chance of royalties.
Actually, that's the #1 thing that indie and up and coming artists sign to in a contract. ASCAP is responsible for protecting artists like that. ASCAP is the music equivalent of SAG-AFTRA.
Does it cost monies :(?
@MichaelJayification Are those the ones that sue people for whistling a tune while at work?

1:58 is he trying to say at this point that James Brown‘s the funky drummer is literally the precursor or catalyst for drum & bass and breakbeat music?
Thats what I'm wondering...
Literally how are u coming to that conclusion all he is saying is that the sample was popular 💀
That and the amen break
@Cameron-cy4fyFr, it probably became a default library asset at a point, meaning most artists didn't know James Brown had anything to do with it.
@Cameron-cy4fy I just didn’t think that that sample was creating new genres. That’s why I was surprised and shocked, what’s wrong with her? You’re trying to make fun of me or something? If you are just fucking say so…

TIL That's not an amen break.
I called that out in the original video about that drum line, the PPG intro goes hard

What this taught me is HipHop artists are some of the best samplers ever.
Or the Jewish guys who manage them
Some of the most unoriginal artists in the industry
Did you know soldiers are some of the greatest fighters ever
@squirrelsyrup1921 op is right lol hip hop artists/producers some of the best if not the best samplers ever.
I got an An FL Studio ad.
bill nye the science guy is NOT something I expected for my birthday
✊ BILL ✊ BILL ✊ BILL!
Fun(ish) fact:
the “Bill Nye The Science Guy” theme song was made by a math teacher
"Bill Nye is slo-moed breakcore" is a hell of a vibe but here we are.
i ALSO did not expect the powerpuff girls either on the first sample or so
The funky drummer break sounds so good because the drum tone is so good, and Clyde's dynamics are also really good like compared to the artificial one made in this video it just pops, even if the pattern itself is simple, good tone, dynamics and recording quality just makes all the difference.

thanks hakita for introducing me to this
i recomand sampling Trouble Funk, its more bass heavy and uses a mix of a acoustic and a electronic drum.
The kicks are often super sharp and the cymbals don't bleed as mush as acoustic drum loop like amen but i don't think Trouble could work for DnB due to how clean their drums are.

These two of my heroes got me into drumming, which I've been doing for several years now, along with teaching drums. If you'd like to know more about them, their drumming, or their stories about how they created certain James Brown songs, there's a fantastic documentary interviewing them both.

6:24 IIRC it was also included in one of the original Zero-G Datafile sample CDs, which was very popular in game studios throughout the 90s
All roads lead to amen break

Even deeper is that Good Times itself is taking inspiration from how funk artists approach a jam. The first bar is an ostinato on the tonic, followed by a bar of improvisation. Basically, the bass player defines a groove and root, then the rest of the players respond to it. Vulfpeck have a great track "3 on E" that nods to this directly. Once you notice the motif you can hear it everywhere across funk, disco, hip hop, etc
10:13 LMFAO synthet i love you
It's another famous break and "Impeach the president"is the name of the song it is from.
