And just because a certain type of music doesn't get played on the radio here in the States doesn't mean a pop artist wont ever hear it. They're artists because music is their passion, and they'll know more about it and where to look for what they like than the average person (see: radio listener).

Plus it's not like the sample was any good in the first place, in my opinion.


it's more 'underground' than any of his tripe.

I wonder where they heard it from.

P. Diddy probably invited him to an Erick Morillo gig.

I've always been skeptical toward Get Physical's ways. Turns out it wasn't in vain. They are very club-mainstream-oriented but just hide behind the cool/hip tech house tag.

well it just comes as a suprise to me because tech house isn't exactly the most mainstream style of music. Booka Shade, pony, Jona, Electrochemie...way more underground than Black Eyed Peas, right?

Yes, but it's still the more mainstream side of EDM.

Yeah, everyone knows about that one thanks to Pulp Fiction.
Very obvious rip-off unless they gave credit to the original artist.
Even so, it's very blatant.

It goes to say that when you sample something........make sure you're not the 100949th to reuse that sample

There is barely an underground anymore.. its just there's enough listeners of a lot of niche music genres to create 'celebrities' and big labels only really recognized by their respective scene and some more adventurous listeners.

Same goes for any leisure activity nowaday... like poker.


Actually poker stars are more famous than djs now lol.
