Just checked and no it's definitely not been sampled by them tho it would fit quite well along the other samples they used on it. Good choice.

A quick google search tells he used it for Missy's 'Supa Dupa Fly'. Honestly had no idea it had been used, first time I hear the song. Really nice use of the sample, something a tad similar to what I had in mind :P

I've been playing around with Alan Parsons Project's "Games People Play" (just the part after it kicks in, but before it goes to the verse), slowing it down to about 75%. If I could throw a beat on top of what's there, it would sound pretty sweet.
― Johnny Fever, Sunday, 23 August 2009 03:16 (3 years ago) Permalink
I've done the same, slightly slowed down the beat of Michael Sembello's "Maniac". I actually have a finished track now... that doesn't sound all that different from "Maniac". :/

Mmm just checked and "close to me" has been used by seeed, sort of covered by Lady Sovereign and mash-uped with Robyn. Seeed track makes me think if slowed down a bit, and with a few more beats would make a brilliant riddim.
