This is hot!
Thank you, Todd!
Wow, I’m just on track #1 and I’m blown away. This is some great stuff. Good finds Todd!
Hey, Todd…your blog is the most beautifullest thing I’ve heard & seen a loooong time. However, I have a correction on your playlist: Ed O.G. & the Bulldogs’ “Be A Father To Your Child” (not “I Gotta Have It”) uses the Roy Ayers “Searching” track. Also, Mary J. Blige uses the song for a song on her “Share My World” that shares the same name as Roy’s.
Peace,
Rich
Mystic Brew – Ronnie Foster
Sampled for: “Electric Relaxation” by A Tribe Called Quest Mystic Brew – Ronnie Foster
Sampled for: “Electric Relaxation” by A Tribe Called Quest <—-dope. Also, Kenny Dope rocked this for Incognito’s remix of “Wild and Peaceful”….nice Todd…
I am grooving to this, especially in the evening when I’m trying to wind down. Way to go, Todd.
love this! i’ve often wondered about a lot of the samples… thanks for hooking it up!
Wow… WOW! I’ve known most of these samples but having them was another story. Some real head bangers there. I’ve been archiving a arby post for my “Know Your Samples!” thing. I might have to peep yours a little bit longer before unleashing mine.
I repeat, “wow!”
#14 was also used by Jay-Z for “Ain’t No N***a.” It was the first thing I thought of when I heard the track into. Yeah, I’m still listening to it!
Great idea for a radio.blog… well done my man! I’ve always been intrigued by how people find these samples, especially the more subtle ones.
Too hot! Also, you may want to add the classic Debarge cut “Stay with Me”, which the Notorius B.I.G sampled for “One More Chance” – one of the hottest samples ever…
I believe it’s in one of the other versions of The Crates. If not, you know it’ll be in Vol. 4!
