[...] Inspired by the quizz chez Dr Dave, and using the same excellent plugin by Martin Laine, I’ve put together a little test of your musical knowledge. The goal is to identify the original tracks below as well as the song & artist that sampled it. To avoid duplications and to allow everyone a fair crack, send your answers to riabacon[at]gmail.com. The winner will get an all-inclusive lunch at the restaurant of their choice in Kingston, Jamaica. [...]

Hey guys,

I chose to play the game for real (no looking at the answers in the different reply posts). ‘Just been listening to shitty hiphop tracks for the past 15 years and seeking for originals since then. Got tipped on the existence of the quizz by lisbei.

1 Danube Incident / Lalo Shiffrin (Portishead)
2 Love Is You / Caroll Williams (some house music good shit)
3 Daft Punk (got me on this one)
4 Get Up / Vernon Burch (Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Lite)
5 no idea junkie! (nor sample or remix)
6 Take Yo’ Praise / Camille Yarbrough (fatboy in in the house!!)
7 The Breaks / Kurtis Blow (what kind of a sucker sampled this?!!?)
8 same as 5 damned!
9 getting a habit chemicals! gotta get back diggin’
10 Gill Scott Heron of course (there’s Detroit in the name, Lisbei tipped me on that when she told me about the quizz sorry) sampled by Air / Modular Mix and Grand Puba / Check in Out (album”2000″ in 1995 the tracks great) I have to admit i’ve been seeking for that sample for years thank you so much!!
11 …and got f**cked again… thank you for that half hour of seeking, mr teacher!!

and thanxx again for sample 10!!

I think my submission for No. 7 was mulched as spam because of one word.

7. The Breaks – Kurtis Blow / It began in Africa – The C. Brothers

3. Can you imagine – The Imperials / Crescendolls – Daft Punk

Oh, I think I’m being taken down as a multiple spammer

Woa, not bad everybody!
OK, I will be posting results, later this afternoon, as soon as I have a sec to cut a small sample of each remixed track. Now is your last chance to catch the missing ones

(sneaked back to the computer for 5 minutes. Kids busy …)

8. Macon hambone blues – Wet Willie / Talkin’ ’bout my baby – Fatboy Slim

Sadly, Norman Cook cut the last and best line:

“She said ‘Daddy, I’m gonna take care of your hotdog, if you take care of my bun’.”

The first one : Portoshead ?

I am so bad at that kind of game. I quite gave up listening to the third sample. I will try one more time later

I love the little stream player. I saw it on another website and I wonder where I could find it.

I did not notice, until today, that you were in Paris now.
