To be fair, the entirety of Ghosts I-IV was released under a Creative Commons open license with the express intent to allow its use in other works. So Lil Nas X sampling from it is about as fair game as you can get. Heck, even Trent Reznor himself reused parts of Ghosts to create the Academy Award-winning soundtrack for The Social Network.
I tend to believe that the difference between good sampling and bad sampling is how lazy they were with it. For the good stuff, either new elements are grafted on top, like a lot of the hip-hop and rap songs, or it’s ‘chopp’d and screwed’ like the Fatboy Slim example, samples tweaked to the point where they are unique in of themselves. And we wouldn’t have mashups without it.
Lazy sampling changes basically nothing. But it’s really rare.
the amen break was sampled so much it created its own genre
the entirety of Ghosts I-IV by NIN is part of a Creative Commons licence to be used by other artists so it’s always nice to see an artist make a big song with one of those tracks
Face to Face by Daft Punk is like a masterclass in sampling
That Fatboy Slim JBL Sessions sample is absolutely killer, what an insane and unique session recording and sample.
The Fugees’ Ready or Not (a huge hit from 1998) uses a sped-down sample from Enya’s Boadicea (a song with hummed vocals). I was very much surprised when I found that out.
One of the most impressive feats of sampling I know of is “Face to Face” by Daft Punk and Todd Edwards. God knows how many songs were incorporated into it; I’ve seen a breakdown that showed 19 different samples, but there could be more. Great song, too.
I’m french and the way you said “Parce que tu crois” is hilarious🤣
Sounded like a language that doesn’t exist 😆
The list of samples that have been lifted from Lavi Siffre’s “I Got The…” would fill a video on their own. I think he’s credited on at least 30 songs.
Even more interesting, for anyone born in Germany between i guess late 90s and late 2000s, „Parce que tu crois“ will be more known for the Cro song „Bad Chick“ that uses the same sample
*RESPECTFULLY PRODUCED* sampling just reads as the music version of fanart, it’s quite a cute thing to do if you think about it that way
The drums from When the Levee Breaks has also been sampled a lot
Another well-known artist that used sampling is MIA, who used the intro of Straight to Hell by The Clash for the main part of her song Paper Planes
The drum groove of “Stupid Girl” by Garbage is sampled from the drum groove of The Clash song, “Train In Vain”
The whiplash of going from NWA and Public Enemy to Ed Sheeran and the Powerpuff Girls is hilarious!
Great video as usual, David! You covered several artists I love in here, so I figured I’d add a couple lol
Moby’s hit album “Play” is built off a ton of sampling, mostly of old blues and roots music. Hideki Naganuma is another artist who extensively samples funky tracks and spoken lines and weaves them into fantastic dance songs.
I also recognized the “funky drummer” breakbeat in the song “EPTM”, song 10 on the Panty & Stocking Original Soundtrack throughout the song, but especially at around the 2:20 mark. That soundtrack contains a lot of sampling as well, check it and Hideki Naganuma out when you have the chance!
Whoa, that *Amen, Brother* drum beat is so famous that I used to play it back in middle school as a warmup with my classmates
