Fun fact, in order to release this song, Fatboy Slim had to release 100% of the track's royalties, 25% to each artist, which means he makes absolutely no money off this song. But he loved it so much and thought it was one of the best songs he ever did, so he released it anyway.
Which of the four artists ? There are 6 samples.
Big picture, the money he forfeited was well spent as this forced the globe to recognize his talent.
Probably the 6th sample being the premade loop for the soundpack
@@bassbytes
One for Bowie, I imagine.
This song helped sell albums.
Sheeeat ... so many samples. The layering is impeccable.
That’s Fatboy Slim’s whole thing.
During that era, he and Liam Howlett of the Prodigy were the best in the business at layering samples.
It just takes such an ear to put all that together
@@JonMichaelDeShazer ya wanna talk layering Underworld was pretty good at it too
@@JonMichaelDeShazer chemical brothers, dj shadow, the avalanches...
Fatboy Slim is the king of sampling for me. I recommend typing him in on who sampled to realise how amazing his sampling is
for me he's just behind the boys from The Avalanches
@@ant7396 was just about to reply and say avalanches
The avalanches, J Dilla bro
madlib needs a shout
and kendrick
one of the greatest sample flips ever
I’ve known this song for a while but had no idea how genius it really is. The fact that he was able to put all these tracks together into this track is insane
There's this thing called sampling 😉
That's how Fatboy Slim sampling works
@@nahforrealtho there's a slew of hip hop producers who have sampled like this since the late 80's... It's not unique to Fatboy Slim.
@@dreddiknight Basically Fatboy Slim became the first famous performer with this style
@@nahforrealtho no he wasn't the first at all, Fatboy Slim was influenced by various famous hip-hop producers who were sampling to make beats. Fatboy Slim pioneered the "big beat" sound alongside the Chemical Brothers & The Prodigy (and The Prodigy were doing it first too) but he wasn't the first famous performer to rely on samples by any margin.
The Rockerfeller Skank could legitimately be the best dance track of all time, effortlessly crossing genres; it appeals to the Northern Soul contingent, people who love sample-based music love it, folk into hip hop, people who like house music, I honestly don't know anyone who doesn't like it.
That and Music Sounds Better With You are the blueprint for what dance music should be.
So dance music = balearic house and big beat? Nothing else exists under that colossal umbrella term? You sound pretty ignorant
👌
Has a Surf Rock vibe
Music Sounds Better With You is an absolute classic. I won't understand anyone who doesn't love that song for the life of me
No way! Fastest I’ve ever clicked a RUclips notification. Love Fatboy breakdowns.
OH MY GOD ME TOO!
theres footage of him online breaking stuff down in his original studio. I think this track is one tbh
My first ever "favorite song." Thank you for this.
samee bro
The craziest part is that Lord Finesse (the voice) cleared the use of his voice without taking any royalties. He didn't even listen to the track and thought it was just his voice being scratched like in a hip hop track. He didn't know his voice sample was the main part being repeated over and over throughout the song. He lost out on a lot of money. Fatboy Slim himself didn't get any royalties either because he used too many samples.
I forget which song, but there's an interview with Fatboy where he's noodling on his sampler talking about what he used in the song, and he hits one key and goes "oops, never cleared that one!"
@@rutabega2039 lmao
I just blew on my screen to get the hair off. You should be proud.
@@rutabega2039 I just watched that video. He just seems like such a simple cool dude.
"Fatboy Slim himself didn't get any royalties either because he used too many samples." yeah but this track blew up so much that it got him a shitton of gig money.
I always loved Fatboy Slim's music, but I had no idea this was how he was putting it all together. He definitely deserved his success.
this video (and this artist as a whole) convinced me that sampling can be actual fucking art, not just something made out of laziness and lack of ideas
I LOVE it when artists use so many samples like this, it's genuinely so cool to watch lol
Layered 4 drums and made it sound good
I think a “You’ve Come A Long Way Baby” full album sample breakdown is in order
Naturally!
Fatboy Slim is seriously underrated.
Underrated by who?
He's one of the most popular DJs in the world for the last 20+ years and will always sell out gigs.
Hes one of the biggest and most iconic DJs lol
@@tobybiggins5367 "iconic"
do you understand the definition of underrated ?
He's not underrated, but he is fucking in heaven
Fatboy Slim is to this day one of my favorite artists! Keep featuring him!
Dude is so talented. I never realized he remixed this from so many different tracks
My god, crazy amount of samples
It was Lord Finesse’s phrase, damn I did not know it 👍🏽
Fatboy sampling technique 🔥
Best big beat song
Never knew one could fit a whole EP worth of samples in a single track.
Fatboy Slim had some great shit in the 90s and early 2000s. I particularly love "ya mama".
I‘ve been waiting for this song!
The vocal sampling of Vinyl is just brilliant. Pure genius.
Never realised that was Lord Finesse on the vocals. So cool!
We need more Fatboy Slim breakdowns!
If people argue about «Piracy kills music» or copyrights, show them this.
I really love this channel, long life to Fatboy Slim
Holy.. love your work tracklib!
Dune had doing this since the 80s, He made perfect pop out of forgotten records. Wonderful stuff. It's easy to knock him. But damm the guy had an ear for a tune.
no matter how much I know the elements...still phenomenally done....hats off!!!
Sample Breakdown: Fatboy Slim - Weapon Of Choice
+1. Especialy the unknow scratch sample, no the word play one. Here are stems for this song in case you want to review them in the meantime.
Oh, by the way, walk without rhythm, and it won't attract the warm.
@@alexmusic9989 You mean this scratch sample ? ruclips.net/video/67K-efUDZkk/видео.html
Damn this had more layers than I originally thought!
straight up one of the best songs ever
this is amazing sampling. My mom listens to it all the time i didnt knew it was so geniune
That one scream tho
This was an amazing breakdown of his sampling... What a master!
Wow!!! This guy is a genius! How in world does one take all these samples and know where to stitch them together to make a masterpiece!? I mean, how do you envision such a result!? This is amazing. Thank you for connecting the dots for us who are musically challenged.
Beautiful sample breakdown, insta subbed!
I love these so much
that LP is a true sampling clinic, good job
the clearing on this one must have been so expensive lol
Hideki Naganuma would be proud of this masterpiece
Great work by both him and you.
Amazing sample!
one of the best musicians ever period
Legendary!
Norman is the absolute master of sampling
I'm Still waiting for that selfish breakdown by Slum Village.
What a groove
fatboy slim is an impecable artist, always love him
Fookin love it
This is the fucking coolest channel on youtube
Genius sample selection
Big beat is the best at sampling
This is nuts
Good memories! Tnx for the trivia
I am in awe
Oh yeeeeah💪 classic💣💥💯
Insane. Practically just 6 tracks to produce a hit and there's people in their bedrooms with DAWs open right now that have dozens of tracks/stems/busses making up a song that will probably never see the light of day.
That's how it works. Too complex and few people will get it. Gotta make it simple so that the masses don't get confused.
As a producer I learned to pull back . So easy to over egg the pudding. My most simplest songs that sound boring to me are my most popular.
That's only because during the times that Fatboy slim was doing it there might have been only another 1000 people on the planet doing it, and only a 100 of them where really good at it. But now there is literally a couple hundred million people that open FL Studio or ableton or logic, etc etc once a week and if only 10% of them are any good that's still 10 million have descent music makers so good luck getting heard.
Absolute nonsensical point. Look at Daft Punk Face To Face. It's irrelevant how many samples you use whether it's 6 or 20+, it's about getting them mixed together to make something that works. I don't think you have a true appreciation for what mixing is at all.
@@HullzOSRS He is very sour nobody gives a shit about his music, probably because he still does not get "less is more". Daft Punk are OG sample Gods and anybody that has tries creating new music just based on a hand full of samples know this.
We need to see a breakdown of a track by The Avalanches, it would be a much longer video I’m sure, but damn it would be interesting
We've done two of em 🤝
GENIUS!!!
Amazing
Legendary song
the most catchy songs made out of samples are very often incredibly simple. 3 or 4 samples that play every bar and 1 or 2 that play every 2 or 4 bars.
Nice! I've wondered about this since the Digimon movie.
You've earned yourself a sub
it would be quite the undertaking but a sample breakdown of the Moment of Truth album would be dope
Brilliant graphics on this...so hard to do.
Insane
Soo good.
Another good example of Fatboy Slim sampling is Right Here Right Now.
Chorus is sampled from James Gang-Ashes the Rain and I, and the vocal "Right Here Right Now" was actually said by Angela Bassett in the movie of Strange Days.
GREASTEST HIT OF ALL TIME AND WE WISH FOR YOUR TURN
Coming from a J Dilla fan, Fatboy Slim was immaculate too. When it comes to techniques and layering samples I have him below Dilla and Rick Rubin…
Thats insane fr fr
There are so many samples that some still remain in obscurity for years.
ARABEST SEBASTIAN AND JOI MR OIZO Pls!!!!!!!
Such a lit song
Made a masterpiece with it
sampling Is so killer
Soo gooood
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD SO GOOD!
Thats epic
lol I’m mad they sampled one song just to get the “huugh!”
Right about now! 😎
Class. ✌
bro this is nuts *_*
I’m mean come on man this sampling genius
Now that’s how you sample!
insane
genius 🙏
Genius
Knew this song since i was a lil kid cause of FIFA 99 :)
It’s time to put Jay-Z in this mix
Great! A *Sample Breakdown for "Brothers Gonna Work It Out"* by Public Enemy (1990) PLEASE : Contain a lot layered samples from James Brown ("Get up Get into It and Get involved"), Melvin Bliss, George Clinton ("Atomic Dog"), Roy Ayers ("Brother Green"), Edwin Birdsong ("I love you Michelle" for the Bass), Bar-Kays ("Too Hot to Stop") Prince ("Lets go Crazy"), Sly ("Sing a Simple song"),etc
Cheers.
You guys should do a sample breakdown on Justice's Cross!
Recently i’m trying to deconstruct Fatboy Slim mashup of two trakcs from his DJ set, using Serato Studio. Man, it’s not easy to follow…. His chopping technique and how he utilize DAW tools is out of this world
I thought this song was called “Funk Soul Brother”
