20 min documentry on a 6 second drum loop

[faz]

This fascinating, brilliant 20-minute video narrates the history of the "Amen Break," a six-second drum sample from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969. This sample was used extensively in early hiphop and sample-based music, and became the basis for drum-and-bass and jungle music -- a six-second clip that spawned several entire subcultures. Nate Harrison's 2004 video is a meditation on the ownership of culture, the nature of art and creativity, and the history of a remarkable music clip.

I would rather see this done on Apache or the Funky Drummer, but this is a good one as well.

I'd add 'It's a New Day' by Skull Snaps, 'Hihache' by Lafayette Afro Rock Band and 'Synthetic Substitution' by Melvin Bliss.

'Hihache' is known mainly for De la Soul's "Oodles of O's and the Wu's '...Ain't Nothin' to Fuck wit'

[Ally Al]

yes i know the one thank you

you pulled those off the top your head huh ??

Also, one break i don't have is Billy Squires Big Beat, you ??

[mickill]

I have it on an Evil Dee mixtape, but no, not officially.

Even better than that, and a lot less used to death, is 'I Walk On Gilded Splinters', performed by Johnny Jenkins, I think.

Becks' 'Loser' and Oasis' 'Go Let It Out' are the most well known interpolations of it, strangely. Blackalicious flipped it too, though.

Are you after the whole tunes for these breaks or just the breaks themselves?

If its just the loops go here (http://www.phatdrumloops.com/old_site/)
