I'm looking for a song by Vybz Cartel. I tried to do a search on the lyrics to no avail; they sound like "gently caress piddee poom poom." Hopefully that's enough to go on. Thanks.

Put your headphones on and get 'em cranked up." I could've sworn it was LCD Soundsystem, but listening to their albums on Amazon didn't turn up anything. I also tried searching for those lyrics, and got nothing. Hot Chip - Shake a Fist (the voice sample's Todd Rundgren)

This was an anti-apartheid song, which gives you an idea of how old it is. Google shows nothing for the lyrics (or what I recall of the lyrics). chorus: Some day, Pretoria / it will be a diff'rent story-a A G , E C E D / C D E E G E D C C in the streets of Johannesburg / we cannot walk in the alleys of Soweto / we cannot talk there is still a black / majority always shackled / never free but some day, Pretoria / it will etc. If you write, I will make it better.

What the gently caress song is this bassline from? All I know is that the version I remember (it might have been a mix) just had people yelling HEYYYYYY, and some dude singing "EVERYBODY NOW". I thought it was a well known bassline but none of my friends know it! This poo poo is pissing me off, it seems like it should be so simple.

"I've got a penis. You got a vagina" This is from a song from 1998 at the latest, I'd guess closer to 1996. My friend who I no longer have contact with had this on a CD and I remember thinking it was hilarious. After about ten years I've about given up on finding it. My memory tells me that the band name was Sperm and the album name was Happy but the internet isn't backing me up on this at all, but it could just be because these are horrible words to try to google. Also there seems to be a Mexican band called Sperm and a Finnish band called The Sperm, and it's neither of those. Anyone have any idea?

The Breakwater, George Duke, and Edwin Birdsong songs were all pretty well known in the genre before Daft Punk used them. Besides, what does being a "classic" have to do with sampling? You're not really supposed to sample well known songs unless you're going do some crazy flip to it, which is not something Daft Punk seems to really do very well.

A dnb or jungle song, called something like "Rejecto". Should be recent, doesn't seem to be anything by "Robotiko Rejecto". I think it was by Marcus Intalex and someone else. Thanks!bad movie knight posted:I like that song, but that's not it. It's a little faster song. Honestly, I doubt it ever charted. I stay somewhat up to date on pop music, but I think this was like a single that totally bombed due to the massive amount of edits it no doubt incurred. I want to say the chorus had some unplayable uberprofanity in a line, repeated four times over. Is it Smell Yo Dick? Maha fucked around with this message at 02:25 on Nov 17, 2009 |

Yeeeears ago, between 1993 and 1997, most likely 95 or 96, I remember watching on Newsround (BBC News for ankle-biters) a news story about a very old woman (French? quite possibly the world's oldest person) who released a record or album that was doing very well on the contemporary charts. Then I also think of some song from around the same time that featured a sampling of some young little poo poo^W^W^W baby babbling on, and I get the feeling it was the same song by the old lady, as though it were a poetic mix of the very young and the very old. I also remember seeing the album or single cover art featuring a photo of said baby, it may have been blueish, though I might be confusing it with Nirvana's Nevermind (but that was released years before). I also think of The Cure as well, might they have been involved in music like this? (I don't have any of their stuff, but I remember they were mentioned on Blue Peter at the time or something).

http://www.mediafire.com/?2nziy2jml5z I found it all by itself on a scratched CD in the back of my closet, amongst a huge pile of un-labeled burned CD's. One lone song on an entire CD. I have no idea what it is. I think it's Hans Zimmer.

This has been bothering me since elementary school. They would play classical music at lunch and this was one of the songs that I loved, but I could never find it afterward. Anyways, I'll try to spell it out. It starts out with a 1/16th note, legato piano arpeggio that keeps repeating: D-E-F-A, D-E-F-A, etc. Then the right hand comes in with: F (dotted quarter tied to 1/16) E (1/16) D (1/8 tied to 1/16) E (1/16) F (1/8 tied to 1/16) G (1/16) A (half) D (half) which then repeats. It's syncopated, so it's kind of like a "daaa, ta-dum, ta-dum, ta-daaa, daaa" sort of sound. Unfortunately, that's all I really remember, but I'm pretty sure the next phrase modulates down to minor key and repeats that pattern. I hope that's enough information; I could try uploading some self-made sheet music if that would be easier to figure out. I've got no recording equipment though  .

I keep hearing this song at work and it's really bugging me cause I never can catch any of the lyrics except the sorta chorus, it's kinda latiny pop, and the part I can remember is the dude singing, "lat da dat dat dat da, la da da dat da dat da dadada" I'm pretty sure it was mainstream in the mid 90s And just for the heck of it I'll try this one again, it's an up tempo song kinda like Bang on the Drums, starts with a group of people saying "Ahhh beep beep" several times, and there's a pretty long sax part in it, and I'm pretty sure that the ahhh beep beep part is a cappella at the end.

This isn't as much "identify a song" as "identify a band", God it's been driving me nuts all morning, I hope one of you can help me. The band has (i think) two guys and a girl, I think one of the video clips had some sort of astronaut or the band playing on the moon, another video was the guys playing in some decadent industrial (?) basement/warehouse (?) and the girl looking nuts and tearing up her clothes. Had some sort of alternative/indie look and sound. I know this is very little to go on but god drat it, it's been eating at me and googling "moon" "astronaut" "music video" produces pages upon pages of moon hoax sites. e: I think the name started with "The Pr (something)". Tried Pretenders Presenters Preservers to no avail so I'm probably wrong with this as well...

Looking for a song from 1994-96 I think. Its in a R&B/Hip-hop style with a distinctive beat that kinda goes da da da daaaaaa da da da da daaaaaa. Maybe has the words "feel the music" and "romance" in its lyrics.

I've been listening to a lot of sorta chilled out music lately, like the american dollar (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSU49AFzgtw), the only thing I was wondering is what genre is it actually called? I was looking for a thread about that sort of stuff but I had no luck, so figured I was just looking for the wrong thing.

The only band I know that's even close are Boards of Canada, and I think plenty of people argue they aren't ambient. But you might like them anyway Also there's a goon music producer that's pretty good, can't remember the group's name but the latest album was "Sure is the Risk Made". Edit: VVV I was under the impression that Conelrad was a goon, but thinking about it, maybe not? HoldYourFire fucked around with this message at 20:13 on Nov 20, 2009 |

Even tried to E-mail him to say thanks, but the inbox was full. Yeah I've got all of boards of canadas stuff and am really liking heavier stuff like russian circles etc. I don't think there is a thread after looking through NMD.

However using the "Pr" description you gave, "The Primitives" came up and match everything you stated but they were a more upbeat band if I recall... I am determined to figure out who this band is for you!

gently caress IT, stumbled into it after spending some 5 hours. The Presets And i don't even like the music that much (which explains why I didn't add it to the playlist), it just drives me crazy when I'm trying to remember something and it stays tantalizingly outside my grasp. Thanks for the help anyway guys. e: As a funny sidenote on how our brain works, turns out that what I recalled as "some video with the band playing on the moon" is, after all, nothing more than shining waterdrops in a dark background. Brain stored in under "\dark_skies\shinning_stars\moon_scape" and I totally made up the spacesuits in my mind to fill in the gaps.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlDZumpQY_4 e2: No wonder I kept getting Dresden Dolls flashbacks as well. The other video I faintly recollected reminds me of Girl Anachronism. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NG0IzG4QNc e3: No wait, there was something mildly related to space afterall. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZNXyDKsflTc Anyway, once again thanks for the help.
