Excuse me if this is the wrong place to post this, or even wrong enough to open a new thread over. I stumbled upon this today and thought it was pretty amazing.

That's actually really cool. Is it actually legal to rip samples off like that?

[Commadoo]

The first one? Probably not. The 2nd one? Speeches get sampled a lot in hip hop. The 3rd? Hell no!

But the 3rd one is so incredibly obscure that no one would ever catch it...

oh wait.

[Guess Who]

There's several other samples in Sonic Rush, too. I'd wager every single little vocal riff is sampled.

[Commadoo]

Also, I think it's kind of odd that the person who mentioned Hot Hot Hot in their video, didn't reference it being used again in Sonic Rush Adventure.

You can legally sample less than 5 seconds of any song.

And I just thought I was imagining the similarity between 'What U Need' and 'Hot Hot Hot' all these years.

[ICEknight]

Isn't the third sample in the video used by a more well known song? I remember hearing it somewhere before, in some TV ad, I think.

[JakeyBoy]

I demand to know where every single one of these samples is take from.

Those are actually cool, I never would identify Hot Hot Hot, and even when the third sample was playing, I had no idea it was Jeh Jeh Rocket.

[Ashram]

This is pretty nuts. I always just thought the "vocals" were done in-house.

[NomadTW]

That is pretty awesome. They actually sampled Malcom X's speech. For a Sonic game. Wow. I knew some of these were familiar but damn...even MJ gets in on this somehow?

Off the Wall, indeed. Liked, and favorited, good work man.

That is pretty awesome. They actually sampled Malcom X's speech. For a Sonic game. Wow.

Public Enemy sampled the Malcolm X speech, but I'd imagine Naganuma sampled Public Enemy. Can't see him going through the Malcolm X speech archives to find the sample.

[Skyler]

Malcolm X. In a Sonic game. In my favorite song from said Sonic game.

[SpeedStarTMQ]

Well, minds have just been shotgunned.

Sonic sampling Malcolm X? Wow, I didn't expect that in a million years, it's definitely the biggest wow so far. I had no idea that they were samples at all, rather done in-house by some crazy Japanese technogeeks. I had always realised the Hot Hot Hot sample, but again, thought it was recreated rather than sampled.

Some of Hideki Naganuma's Jet Set Radio Future songs have more outside samples than soundfonts.
