That was recently reused in Figurines - Silver Ponds (Ben Watt Dub)

Nice deep house opener if you're into the mellow stuff.

it was inspired by it yes, but 0 sampling was done in this case.

quote:
The bass line was inspired by the song "Good Times" by the Disco group Chic. In an interview with New Musical Express, Chic co-founder Bernard Edwards stated, "...that Queen record came about because that Queen bass player... spent some time hanging out with us at our studio"

Nile Rodgers and Bernard Edwards [R.I.P.] plus the backup singers made up Chic. They produced the material and are known for their infectious basslines.

But to say Good Times is the best? I mean they have other work which tops their own track. In terms of bassline, these are better:

Also pretty much any Duran Duran song. Isn't 'Ferry corsten - Fire' sampled from one of their tracks, or Simon le Bon at least?
