DJ Influence Posted December 3, 2005 Report Share Posted December 3, 2005 What I would really like is some 44.1khz 16bit stereo rips of this break and all its associated edits. Reckon they may all have been used at some stage, and should all be entered into 'Breaks' forum. Ideally we need the original CD sources for these but guess Future Music CD could be specified as source for now... Yeah that goes for me to.

Guest Guest Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 Is it just me, or is the bassline (probably the old pitched down 808 sample) suspiciously similar to "Euphony" by Bodysnatch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djadzee Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 I believe that the Bell is taken off of the Kraftwerk album 'Electric Cafe', and Andy C just put the sample through a Arpeggio machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haste Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Electric Cafe was used for Dark Stranger http://www.rolldabeats.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=37684 I'm not sure if this is the same source originally but Valley of the Shadows was definitely taken off the Future Music CD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blah Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 a mate was telling me the other day that there was a progam about life after death on you tube that had the samples to 31 seconds on it. I would have MURDERED to get a link to that!!!! :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygn Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 the bells sample is also used in Delerium - Sensorium from the Semantic Spaces lp. audio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinnymalinky Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 The bell sample is from the theme music of Q.E.D or Equinox, I forget which. Both were documentary series on BB2 and C4 respectively. One was sampled by Goldie for Beachdrifta and the other on Valley of the Shadows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinnymalinky Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 You sure about that? I thought it was just the "I was in this long dark tunnel" etc vocals which were sampled from an episode of QED... Yeah, pretty sure. If it's not one of these 2 shows then it's another similar programme. I shall investigate. Come to think of it, I posted this in a thread on DOA, but if I remember rightly, I got the name of the show mixed up. However, someone confirmed this and managed to get the programme right. Just to demonstrate how leaky my memory is on such matters, I'm starting to think that Beachdrifta sampled the theme music from Horizons. I alway get these types of shows mixed up.

skinnymalinky Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 *edit* Maybe not. I've just read that thread back and I seem to be the only one that suggests it is. Other people said that it was taken from a Future Music CD. However, I remember being told that it sampled QED. This could've been a reference to "the long dark tunnel" bit but I was under the impression that my mate was referring to the bells. After being told this, I'm then pretty sure that I watched the programme and the theme music was the intro of VOS. Then again, I've smoked a fuck load of weed since then, and the lines of reality and fantasy have, at times, become somewhat blurred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haste Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 hehe...the bells are definitely from the Future Music CD. Until we can hear the episode of QED and the vocal samples from it then I think that we have to keep this as a rumour that's not yet been proven.

The_Manipulator Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 I've also heard the vocals were sampled from a QED episode on Near Death Experiences. Of course, that info can be found on more sites (http://www.epinions.com/content_1803001988), but no links yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haste Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 I've never quite worked out whether the QED thing is just a common myth perpetuated on the internet. Most people will gladly say that it was from that programme but I've never seen any proof. I'm sure that the info's correct but I guess it just needs confirmation?

The_Manipulator Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Interview with Andy C (http://www.mpiii.com/dl_view-24465.html) Where did you get the 'long dark tunnel' sample from?It was from a QED documentary on the BBC about near-death experiences. It's from a woman named Barbara. She had a near-death experience while she was in labour. She found about the tune, because her daughter was listening to Kiss FM around '96, heard it, and told her mum that she was on some hardcore record. She didn't mind at all. She wrote us a really, really nice letter telling us all about her experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haste Posted March 5, 2007 Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Fair enough...i think that proves it! I guess we should add the whole QED info as a sample source? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stenny Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I thought they sampled the bell arpeggio from a sample CD called "Now, that's what I call sampling!" released by AMG. It was a demo sample cd showcasing various samples from AMG's whole sample cd library. http://www.amguk.co.uk/history.shtml - the CD is mentioned in there. I think the sample was on track 50-something (sorry, my memory is bad!) and was done on something like a Korg mono poly synth, according to the index listing description. Most dance producers back in the day bought the zero-g datafiles 1-3 and polestar magnetics' x-static goldmine sample CDs from zero-g... you used to get the above mentioned free sample cd chucked in as a bonus. I'm pretty sure that the year on the back of this free cd was 1992 or earlier. The same goes for the think break edits used in the track, they're on the original x-static goldmine sample cd (released in 1992 I think). God knows where they originally came from though?? I for one would like to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeMyself&I Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Just a little info:If I remember correctly, I've got the full sample somewhere on my disk, and it ends with the reverb fading away, unlike the part vos sampled. So there is actually a dry version of the sample. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ornette Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 I'd like to hear that. Can you post it up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there is actually a dry version of the sample. Yeah that's the one. The sample starts off with loads of reverb (that's the bit that got used in the tune) then ends up being completely dry. It would be good to hear it again. The whole sample is definitely on the sample CD I mentioned above and it might also be on this one from 1991.
