Hello,

couldn't find it on roots archive either. Here's the discogs link though to the album it's on. http://www.discogs.com/Dennis-Brown-Milk-And-Honey/release/2067883.

 

Listening to it again, i think the Noise Factory sample is from another version on that riddim or Noise Factory reproduced it themselves. There's light cymbals over the sample in the DEB tune.

Could this be moved to the sample id's section till it's sorted please, haste?

Riddim is 'tings a gwan'. I dont know the noise factory tune but if the horns at the intro are clean then Id wager the Its the steelie and cleevie version or the two friends version. There's clean horns on both IIRC. Dennis Brown LP is 'Milk and Honey'.

BTW, the track "Easy" on that LP is definitely not "Easy, Natty Easy", I remember making that mistake! I've found it since though (and the original "Easy, Take It Easy) ;)

Ra, I hear it now, definitely horns, well sped up on Breakage #4 & 7, it's a very clean version they used, I might check out the riddim database. Good spot though guys

I have the exact sample. 2 totally clean bars of horns. Theres a clean bar at the start of 'Give it a chance' by Sanchez on Digital B and I think theres some clean bars on the version of the Chevelle Franklin "get along without you" 7" on two friends. I pieced together the last note from the 2nd bar from the intro of the sanchez tune to make the two bars, though the Noise Factory only uses 1 bar (If its the same sample that is).

I already have the sample looping in Ableton. If I get the chance tonight Ill pitch the fuck out of it and see what happens (must be 2x because the original tune is about 83bpm IIRC).

OK, I only had 5 minutes to do this its just a soundforge pitch. I reckon if you cut this up and put it through a few filters its possible that it would sound right.

The problem is that there are several bits in the tune where the melody is pitched down an octave and the sounds definitely isn't the same.

 

As Serum says I'm pretty sure it's not playing the same notes. I've not got a keyboard in front of me to check but the Noise Factory one is a minor chord while the reggae one is a major chord, I think. I could well be wrong but that's what it sounds like from here.

yeah. Its just about similar enough to make me think that if it was cut up and the bits repitched, filtered and resequenced that it could be the right sample.

 

It is also the kind of thing they would have sampled.

 

On the other hand I cant think of another example of them going to those kind of lengths to get a sample to work. It seems to me that they would be far more likely to just throw something in and dump it if it didnt work out pretty quickly.

 

I just cant see them doing that much work on one sample TBH. Much easier to just find something else.

yeah i'm not convinced anymore. Sounds similar enough to think we're on the right track in iding what Noise Factory used though. If they didn't make the sound themselves that is. Strangely similar these two.

 

What do you think about moving this to the sample id section and retitling the thread?
