because it's a site geared around tracks that sample tracks not tracks that sound like tracks.

Small sample/interpolation drop. First one is a courtesy of someone in youtube comments:
Tears From the Compound Eye

R35TT B02


Stefan Zauner was a part of Amon Düül II but not on this particular album. Art for Hiscores might have also been inspired by one of the album covers:

Fax. Its literally the same beat and sample but with different melodies on top.

Nice spot!

Hello everyone!

Sorry to bring this up again, but something caught my attention regarding the WARP10 pictures.

Regarding their gear: This is definitely a CASIO CZ 101 that Mike is playing. (Probably as a controller). But still, if you listen to its sounds... it sounds very BOC to me.

Check this video out:

Also, the blue keyboard Marcus is playing it is in fact the CS1x (also as a controller). The rare panel shows all the connections of the CS1X, which are not included in the AN1X.

It's from Rockline hosted by Bob Coburn on 27 June 1983. You can hear the start of the sample at 22:06:
http://www.elodiscovery.com/interviews/ ... ckline.mp3

But the introduction heard in Happy Cycling wasn't on that broadcast, so they must have sampled something else instead. Maybe it's on this site which has a lot of other old ELO interviews: http://www.elodiscovery.com/Jeff-Lynne- ... iews2.html (Make sure you enable flash in your browser's site settings)
The missing part is from the 1991 interview (same website) at "Reelin' In The Years", hosted by George Taylor Morris. At 07:30
http://www.elodiscovery.com/interviews/1991-reelin.mp3

In fact, right after, the host plays the same portion of the 1983 interview, so really the whole sample appears here.

Upon kind of fixing up an old record player I have, I've realized that a lot of sounds or samples might come from record skip / record spinning shenanigans. I say this because my player only makes sound when you physically spin the record, and there's lots of weird nifty sounds you can get from doing that and in reverse. I guess I just discovered what DJs discovered in the eighties lol. I hear this a lot in samples on MHTRTC and Geogaddi.

Of course. Sixtyten is the most pertinent example off the top of my head

Pretty old and dead thread but i think that one vocal in Telephasic Workshop says "from the street", and it is DEFINITELY a British rapper or something like that. If you slow it down by like 7 semitones you can probably hear it.

bocpages lists it as saying "twenty cent" and i think that's funny.

At the end of You Could Feel the Sky around 4:27 there's a repeating vocal sample that is heavily phased / flanged out, and to me sounds like someone saying "Take my Hand..." That same sound can be found on the old BoC Website vignette Seven Forty Seven / New Islands.

For a while a rumour was going around that the bros studio was inside a derelict war bunker, I think it's a play on that. It could be true..
I've often wondered if the picture of what seems to be a shed with a window on the cover of IABPOITC is their studio, Which wouldn't be far off what we see in the picture.. Alas no windows.. Unless the window is on the other side of the shed..

It looks like a secluded and hidden place anyway. Could be Waco related, But that looked more like a huge mansion. There's a documentary about the Waco seige, But be warned its a tough watch. I watched it about 10 years ago and it still haunts me what the ATF people did to those poor people. They subjected them to psychological torture for days on end trying to drive them mad before murdering them :(

So much for a beautiful place out in the country..

A beautiful place.

At best an interpolation, but I really doubt it.

Hi Scores

I may be doing this wrong, but I just noticed that Hi Scores has almost the exact same intro as Bill & Teds Bogus Journey (1993). That slow bass synth triad with drums slowly fading in. Apparently it's only present on some older versions of the film (I noticed it from a VHS copy). Makes sense the brothers would be into a sci-fi comedy about 2 dudes tripping through the universe.

Movie intro here:

I always took that as a little logo of their original studio in the Pentland Hills.
