Talk:Genaside II

Latest comment: 14 years ago by Silverdroid

Whoever wrote that interview that says that Firestarter was based on a sample from Narra Mine did a bad researching job. He must have mixed up several things. First of all: Prodigy did "sample" a tune from Genaside II. It was Sirens of Acre Lane where they used the "When I was a yout I used to bun cali weed in a rizla" which was sampled from Pablo Gad'S Hard Times. Howlett used the same sample. So I think that's the reason the interviewer might have mixed it with Firestarter and the fact, that Howlett said somewhere that Narra Mine was a big influence in 1991. (Which was just a big hit back then)


2010-04-16 I agree with the above post. I fail to see the sample used in Firestarter. If anything, the oscillating sound found at time index 1:10 sounds like the quiet part in Firestarter, however in Firestarter that sound was made with a preset patch found on the Korg Prophecy synthesizer (of which I used to own and have even tried the patch), not with a sample. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Silverdroid (talkcontribs) 20:48, 16 April 2010 (UTC)Reply
