I hadn't heard of that, or heard it, or heard of him. I assume it's the same sample that Matthew Dear used on the first Ghostly record? http://www.discogs.com/release/106063 And isn't it, "a lovely city"? Anyway... I guess that could maybe further the 'trading on the Detroit name' claim a bit. OB313: Pascal Schäfer's 'Getting Close' from his latest on Kalk Pets has a track that has one vocal sample of 'Detroit'. Similar usage to 'Detroit: One Circle', but less ominous. It's more like a happy thing. I mention it just because I'd be loathe to assume he was trading on that usage. It's sounds to me more like he's citing an influence, and I guess that makes the thought of pointing the finger at this other dude that much trickier (in my mind anyway). Judge for yourselves I guess: http://mp3.juno.co.uk/MP3/SF210722-01-01-02.mp3 (note: after saying all of this, it's clear to me that Juno's positioned the clip to throw 'Detroit' in your face immediately when in reality that doesn't happen until the 2 minute mark). Somebody's making money off Detroit somewhere. ;) Tristan ======= http://www.phonopsia.co.uk [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
