Original Sample:

Deeper and Deeper by Bobby Wilson

My dad has a quote on his desk that reads, “A place for everything; everything in it’s place”. When the new year hit, i tried to remember that quote, since it was one of my resolutions to be more organized. For a couple of weeks it worked. But now, four months later, my desktop is littered with so many icons that you can barely see my dilla background. Half of the icons read SampleMMDDYY.mp3. It’d be great if I kept a log of the samples that have been picked so far. That way, I wouldn’t get an email from 25/8 saying that we already chopped up this sample. Yessir – turns out that this week’s sample was chopped almost two years ago in BeatSession 05|10|09 during WBS’s myspace days. The only people that chopped up the sample that week was 25/8, Sideways, and Freshvilla. So, fortunately, its new to most of y’all. Its a dope sample from Bobby Wilson’s 1975 album, “I’ll Be Your Rainbow” off Buddah Records.

This was also sampled on the song titled “At Your Request”, the opening track off of Generation ILL’s collaborative EP with Deep Foundation and Hydroponikz. Check out the song at the bottom of this post. And if you haven’t already, make sure to check out the EP on cdbaby/itunes.

Also, big shout out to Sideways who’s currently in the process of relocating to Portland, OR. His cross country road trip has led him through 10 states so far (Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Wyoming, Utah, and now Idaho). Fortunately, he had his MPC with him and found time to revisit the sample.
