turntablism and sampling pioneer is well-known for his lessons 1-3 records from the 80s. he and partner double dee were the first to use pieces from film and television. he continued into the 90s with singles like “it’s up to you”, where the ominous, high-pitched whine of george h.w. bush pushes us into the first gulf war over a nice little beat.

I love the jackson 5 sample used on that song. I know it was used on All About the Benjamins, but I’m surprised noone else (that I know of anyway) has used it in a song.
Thanks for this one, I’m putting it in the ipod rotation.
