Convenient thread bump!

Anyone know the last tracks (the last 2 main one's I guess) on "Detroit is Jacking! The Techno! Megamix" on the New Dance Sound of Detroit comp.

There's audio here. I'm guessing the high pitched string line and the vocals are from different tracks.

i can't listen to your clip just now but from memory i think it ends with 'forever and a day' by blake baxter.

Thank you StanM for the valuable work you put into solving my predicament.

I know, right?, Saturday, 30 August 2008 18:17 (fifteen years ago) link

Xpost, yeah, that's one of the tracks there, but it seems like it's only one of many layers. Thanks a bunch anyways. I can't really describe it, but the part with the strings is the main part I was looking for.

While we're all here, anyone have any idea what's playing at 3:25

(uptempo and hooky hip hop beat, "fresh for 98" sample/vox repeated. And how 'bout that line at 3rd and Army at 2:12, anyways!)

Help!

I'm looking for the source of the female vocal samples used in Fierce Ruling Diva's "Rubb It In" ("you'll get the shock of your life") and Armando's "100% of Dissin You" ("i'm gonna diss you right now").

Anyone know?

the armando sample is the fab-u-lous Loleatta Holloway. can't remember the exact source, but it is her...wish ilxor elan still came on here, he has the full fuckin thing-- he used to play it over a mysterious omar-s track at parties.

This isn't really "track id" but I'm looking for a particular English version of Águas de Março. It's a woman singing, it's not a duet, there's no male part. I think it's all in English, but it might be a mix of English and Portuguese. The first few verses are definitely English.

It seemed "classic" or "definitive" to me when I heard it, like maybe it was actually Elis Regina singing it, but I can't find any Elis Regina versions that are in English and aren't duets. I'd guess it's from the 70s or 80s, I'd be surprised if it was from the 90s, and it's definitely not from after 2000.

I thought it was on one of the cafe apres midi discs, but I can't find it now.

Dan I., Thursday, 9 May 2013 18:49 (ten years ago) link

It's not the Gal Costa version with Jobim.

Ok, can someone help me with this. It's what I was listening to at the turn of the century.

At about 0:50 , trying to id this funk/disco sample has been driving me nuts for about 15 years.

I heard the original once while out, and think It could possibly be by a female vocalist on Philadelphia International records, or maybe not.

Please!

inventionsforjohn, Sunday, 12 May 2013 22:26 (ten years ago) link

is it this?

no, it's not.

i lost my shoes on acid (jed_), Sunday, 12 May 2013 22:38 (ten years ago) link

Haha, thanks. It does sound very Philadelphia International though, it was only a drunk vague recollection of asking the dj and seeing a record spinning on the decks with the Philadelphia label on it.

inventionsforjohn, Sunday, 12 May 2013 22:51 (ten years ago) link

that was a result of me following a rabbit hole on google that said the sample was also used on "gym tonic" so i was searching for samples used on that and not really listening properly.

i lost my shoes on acid (jed_), Sunday, 12 May 2013 23:03 (ten years ago) link

I've been down that same rabbit hole. It was another deadly Avenger track.

inventionsforjohn, Sunday, 12 May 2013 23:12 (ten years ago) link

ah! i got excited thinking i'd solved your 15yo-old quandry without actually listening to the track :)

i lost my shoes on acid (jed_), Sunday, 12 May 2013 23:26 (ten years ago) link

I try not to revisit that period of music if I can help it, but I need to find the original track. Which will inevitably be a bit of a let down.

inventionsforjohn, Sunday, 12 May 2013 23:40 (ten years ago) link

i'm on it. i've asked a pal on facebook and if it is on philly international he'll know what it is. i'll keep you posted.

AFAIK the actual drum break in the intro to "Rapper's Delight" was not borrowed from anywhere else, so it seems Keith LeBlanc came up with hit himself. The bassline underneath the intro comes from this though:

the track I’m looking for is early 80s punky disco, from New York I think. The instrumentation is just like bass, drums, guitar, maybe synth. It doesn’t really “rock” but the vocals are this bratty fake macho spoken word thing, voice kinda sounds like milo aukerman. it sounds extremely DFA-ish, like James Murphy must know this song.

it might be Italian??

karl...arlk...rlka...lkar..., Wednesday, 3 April 2024 01:52 (two weeks ago) link

I'm looking for this tune which would have been released early in 2001. It's commercial dance music but not house or techno, closest thing I could say is big beat but it's more like an experimental version of bubblegum pop, but without any vocals. It's commercial novelty dance music, but pretty sure it wasn't a hit, at least not a notable one. My housemate was the music editor of the student paper and was given it as a promo, we were blown away by it (may have been the weed) but seems he has no memory of it now.

Looking through dance hits of the year, I will add that the artist name was short and not a person's name, also no face on the cover.
