it takes two, samples & sampled by professor eddy
i was fooling around with samples and sampled songs and this one came about. the funny thing about the evasions track is that they quote quite a few songs, like ‘ring my bell’, ‘funkin’ for jamaica’ and ‘one nation under one groove’, but thirteen years later they were quoted themselves in ‘regulate’ by warren g (‘… funk, life is rhythm and rhythm is life’). ‘pump up the volume’ by m/a/r/r/s has so many samples, so i picked out a few, like ‘the jam’, ‘it’s just begun’ and ‘holy ghost’ by bar-kays. the bar-kays were sampled by fila brazilia as well (in a very subtle way)
01 locksmith – far beyond (1980)
02 basement jaxx – red alert (1999)
03 the evasions – wikka wrap (1981)
04 tom browne – funkin’ for jamaica (1980)
05 marrs – pump up the volume (1987)
06 jimmy castor bunch – it’s just begun (1972)
07 graham central station – the jam (1975)
08 lyn collins – think (about it) (1972)
09 rob base & dj e-z rock – it takes two (1988)

Thanks, hopefully this mix can please your missus! ;-) She’ll surely be pleased to hear that Amy Winehouse is in it. My girlfriend isn’t very much into hip hop, but she always loves to hear Amy Winehouse. And she gave me the Destiny’s Child record, by the way.
go on, leave a cheeky comment...
