Best use of perucssion samples in a song?
View this Thread in Original format

In the tradition of useless threads, I am presenting this one for everyone's consideration. In this time of unchanging 4x4 beats, off beat hats and one-loop percussion lines, what are some of your favorite trance songs which make use of percussion beyond a simple loop or two?

Though the song beyond the percussion is simple, Ive chosen the classic

Der Dritte Raum - Trommelmaschine

For its insane use of filters, cowbell, and other percussive sounds to create a great atmospheric tune which is one of my all time favorites.

Now (you) list yours.

Storm, Tiesto & Montana - Bleckentrommel :D
Stuff from Safri Duo
A Few Good Men - Give it Up (Simply Red nicked that song for his 'Fairground')-song

Not trance (but then again I wouldn't consider the tracks already named to fall into the trance genre), but I would say Ruff Driverz Pres. Arrola - Dreaming (Percussion Mix)
FirstBorn
A-Force: 'Gravitational Wave' has some massive, fantastic percussion in it. This track may well be my tune of the year for 2004. :D
