You're sitting in a Christian boarding school listening to Sid Vicious??! And you've never heard of the genre of dance-music they call "House"? From which "Acid-House" was descended? No? And you don't understand? Neither do I, my dear, neither do I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blind-fitter Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 It was sampled on 'Hits From the Bong' by I can't remember who too... "Hits From The Bong" was by Cypress Hill, but I had no idea it sampled bass-parts from "Son Of A Preacher Man". (I presume that's the track to which you both refer?) That's one thing I love about this site: one learns something new every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daslied Posted October 17, 2006 Report Share Posted October 17, 2006 It actually samples the cool little high lead guitar part from the beginning, which was begging to be sampled at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Fish Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 Oh yeah, before i forget, House music as explained by Wikipedia.. "The common element of house music is a prominent 4/4 beat (a prominent kick drum on every beat, also known as four-on-the-floor) generated by a drum machine or other electronic means (such as a sampler). As well, house music uses a continuous, repeating (usually also electronically generated) bassline. Typically added to this foundation are electronically generated sounds and samples of music such as jazz, blues and synth pop, as well as additional percussion. As new recordings emerged, the house genre divided into a number of subcategories, some of which are described below." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
