I'm looking for some decent hip hop or dance tunes that have got like old songs running through, or like techno/trance/hip hop remixes of old songs.
I've got mosta the obvious one, it's more obscure shit I'm looking for.
An example would be that Nas tune that has the bass line from Inna Godda Davita in it and it sounds fucking awesome :thumb:

Rebel MC - Tribal Bass. Versioning of Barrington Levy - Here I Come.
That's an awsome track. Congo Natty also included Barrington Levy's 'Under Mi Sensi' in one of his jungle tracks - you know what that's called? It's good too.
Aphrodite - 'Jungle Brother' (may also be listed under 'True Blue')
Aphrodite - 'I got Five On It'
Aphrodite - 'No Diggity'
SS - 'Lighter'
Aphrodite - 'Man Of Steel'
Aphrodite - 'Summer Breeze'
There's a large number of old skool hardcore tracks too, that include remixes of old tracks - some aint too bad.
Try ...
Orca - 4AM (original by Beverly Craven - 'Promise Me')
The Fat Controller - 'In Complete Darkness' (original by Janet Jackson - 'Interlude Living In Complete Darkness')]
Rave Is A Mystery (original by Madonna - 'Like A Prayer')
Supreme & UFO - 'Forever Autumn' (original Jeff Wayne - Forever Autumn)
also check out the Dangermouse mashup of Jay-Z's Black album and The Beatles White album. i really like it. im not a big fan of either but what Dangermouse (the guy from gnarls barkley) did with them was quality. its called the grey album, but its not been officially released.
edit; oh yeah, and Public Enemy - He Got Game sampled Stephen Stills - "For What It's Worth"
angel of death has been used in a few drum and bass tunes too.
check out 'amon tobin - angel of theft'. among others.

Pretty much every track featuring the diplomats has a sample of an old song in there, same goes with kanye..in fact, pretty much any artist signed to rockafella (even though the diplomats technically arent anymore)
