dr_rock      I always wondered where that came from. I figured it was James Brown.

Hooper_X     Awesome piece of musical scholarship. This and "Apache" are basically the two biggest samples evar.
|
baleen      everybody in the world needs to see this
|
happy_ending      Fantastic.
|
yoyo1      Before he actually plays it, the dreadful beat was already playing full volume in my head!
|
Aubrey McFate      Holy shit. I may never listen to music the same way again. (Nice point on copyrights, too.)
|
boba.  Winstons don't even own copyright to their song.He bought a UK press on ebay.Jungle sucks.Ignorant.
|
keinsignal      Very well put together. Wish he'd included Van Helden's "Breakdancer's Call".
|
Yakoo:MarkTwo      No comment. Just a good video.
|
danthedrummer      Fascinating, though he didn't mention the drummer, Gregory C. Coleman, who actually played the beat.
|
Endoris      It's good to see a decent analysis of something so omnipresent in our musical culture that we rarely think to analyze it. Nice.
Plus, I was just looking up stuff on the Amen break a few days ago, and it was even weirder that I actually came across this today.
|
Stopheles      Great little dissertation, though I think he's a little hard on Squarepusher and his ilk.
|
j lzrd / swift idiot      Well damn. All music is the same.
|
Lies, lies, LIES!      Nick C. hates it, so five stars.
|
Keefu      Learn your cultural heritage.

Goethe and ernie      I saw this one morning in 2006 when I had the day off work with a migraine. Five stars for how much I enjoyed it back then, and another, theoretical, five stars for how much I enjoyed it now.
