    Really specifically also like the outro or whatever runs for the last 3 minutes of 'Is There Anybody Out There? (Extended)'. Is there a version out there which makes more use of this maybe even as a intro (which I would find interesting)

      The track Non Verbal Communication has a whistling bongo sample taken from the start of Xpansions - Elevation (puffasonic remix)

        I can't for the life of me where that 'buzz' sounds comes from. Can anyone help?

          We all know the Pink Floyd and Afrika Bambaata samples, but what really makes this track is the bassline and that was also borrowed. I am surprised nobody commented on this.

          The bassline was taken from the track "Breathe Deep", featured on the epic 1990 Dream 2 Science LP.

            This track was actually made by Shaun Imrei aka Terrorize - he sold it to the Bassheads for £100 as he needed the cash and the rest is history. True Story!

              That "oooh yeah" sample also appears on the Trendy Mix of House 2 House's Everybody Get Up on Strictly Rhythm. Where is the original sample from?

                I swear the drums were sampled from somewhere

                    From the first notes of the deep dark string intro and bubbling acid riff you can sense this is something special. Then the bass-line drops which as soon as people use to hear it got everyone going instantly, the track just builds and builds with the guitar loop (Pink Floyd sample), vocal samples (Africa Bambaataa), acid riff, piano, all phasing in and out of the track building all the way through to cause maximum dance floor madness, its really cleverly constructed. One of the big tunes of its day and listening it today you can still see why.
