• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

Songs that to your knowledge haven't been sampled yet that shock you

Here in year 30 some odd of mostly brainless talent in modern music, what songs that have something catchy in them are left to be mined? If we find any that have (and therefore hopefully obscure), post 'em.

Juke Box Hero (dat opening bass line)
Abacab (the whole song is ripe with catchy phrases, the opening, cool synths)

First two that came to mind that seem like slam dunks.
 
Tom Sawyer. The intro would make a great sample. I'm not aware of it being used in a recorded song and this is the only time I've heard it used...Live at a Beastie Boys concert. Starts just after 1:00 mark:

Ludwig would have certainly wanted to talk to that young man.
