The result was their 1992 hit ‘Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia)’, which was built on a sample of Herbie Hancock’s classic track ‘Cantaloupe Island’. The group’s debut album, Hand On The Torch, featured music that sampled a variety of classic Blue Note recordings. In 2006, the Hancock original also formed the backbone for a European EDM track called ‘Blue Note Tribute’ by Congaman. com lists him as the third most-sampled jazz musician of all time, which makes the pianist responsible for an astounding amount of the best Blue Note samples to appear on record.

The ‘blue notes’ of the blues were those aspects of the music that could not be transcribed yet were directly related to how the song conveyed emotion. It might be the fact that the instrument was not fully in tune, or the way certain notes were bent but others were not, it could even be the way a finger hit the body of a guitar right after the string was strummed. The Rite of Spring can be understood as Stravinsky ‘sampling’ the blue notes of Transylvanian folk music. In many regards sample-based composing is a modern folk tradition, so it should come as no surprise that it has its own blue notes. The sample-based composition work of today is still sampling, but much of it lacks the blue notes that helped define the golden era of the art. I attribute this discrepancy to the evolution of technology over the last two decades.

Like any great Blue Note album of the 1950’s, everyone is high on heroin. Reefer madness was around the corner, so the possibility of grass is likely too. This album swings. Opener ‘Omicron’ changes tempo and meter 3 times in the first 30 seconds. Tale Of The Fingers’ is basically the best arco tune ever recorded. I don’t know, what’s the difference. I listen to it often and find notes in it I forgot about or didn’t hear the previous time. And I sampled the hell out of it. Listen HERE. Marc Mac (4hero/Visioneers). Founding member of early breakbeat and drum and bass pioneers 4hero with Dego, Marc Mac are another from the old school to draw heavily on jazz influences and sampling that dominated so much new music in the early 90’s.
