In the first recording I was in Cherokee park (an Olmsted park) and it wasn't nearly as intense as I expected. In that one I was parked on a hill and a bicycle zooms past. In the 2nd recording I was in an open area with isolated big trees and it was incredibly loud. My truck was on the side of the road with the microphone set on the toolbox. At some point a car drives past. It gives you a good idea of how loud it was. In a wave editor the pattern looks just like a pop song: http://www.psychicreform.com/Music/index.htm ____________________ www.psychicreform.com ____________________ "Be who you are... not what's cool." --Chef.

Can I get an Amen (break)?
by egyptian zombie robot 10 Nov '05

10 Nov '05

This documentary video explores the humble beginnings of the track by 60s funk and soul band "The Winstons" called "Amen Brother" a b-side of their Grammy winning single "Color him Father", from which the ubiquitous 'Amen Break' was culled. The short video takes the viewer thru the journey of the sample through artists like 3rd bass to NWA to Squarepusher and Hrvatski, with solid commentary on the unlikely use of 6 seconds of sound from 1969 fueling everything from the UK Jungle scene to Corporate America's appropriation of hip-hop to sell us SUVs and Shampoo.
