Are you sure you meant "So What'cha Want"? Because I think you meant "Rhymin' & Stealin'".

oh nm, just noticed Rhymin' & Stealin' is the first option.

Where the hell is it in So What'cha Want?

Johnny Fever, Monday, 21 April 2014 18:05 (ten years ago) link

it's not in So Whatcha Want

Is it this, slowed down and amplified?

No, it's Mike Diamond playing a drum set in a recording studio.

The Southside Movement track is sampled in So Whatcha Want but they took the bass, not the drums. The drums definitely weren't sampled, though Mike D was probably going for a WTLB-type beat given their history of sampling it.

Don't think E-Pro really belongs in the poll options either, since he actually nicked the Beasties' drums rather than sampling them from Zep.

Thought about this, but I don't believe it's actually a sample: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVKx5eNgALU

E-Pro makes me sad cos I was so psyched for new Beck when I heard it and it turned out to be like listening to a hollowed out shell of 90s Beck.

Where is it sampled in “Only Love Can Break Your Heart”?

Mr. Snrub, Wednesday, 27 December 2017 10:59 (six years ago) link

Sarah's vocal is a wholesale sample of Plant.
