Re: FW: (313) Swing/Jive Jazz samples
I might be confusing tracks here. As I recall it sounded like a hard chicago house track, with a sample of women singing Doop Doop taken from a 1920s-30s swing or ragtime song. The track structure is typical. Sounded like an early 90s equivalent of techno/house novelties like 'Crazy Frog' or Oizo's 'Flat Beat'. I can imagine it working well in a bar brawl in the UK ;) P www.peterlasell.net --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 28 October 2005 15:42 Doot Doot was done by Freur - Karl Hyde Rick Smith's band before they formed Underworld (incarnation #1) Is that the same record as I remember (if so incorrectly obviously) as Doop by Doop? - the UK chart topper?

Piccadilly seem to have had about a million of these records 2002 - 2004. When I first heard this style I thought it was quirky and pleasant (though I never bought any of the records) but became heartily sick of hearing it, glad it seems to have eased off. However but there's also a neo-soul singer called Lina who has that vibe and is extremely underrated in the US. She's currently down with the Hidden Beach side of things (Jill Scott). You can look her up on Amazon. Got to say I like this lady and have her album!
Re: FW: (313) Swing/Jive Jazz samples
I have to agree with you Francis. While there are a couple of G-Swing tracks I like, overall their releases are pretty formulaic - kick drum, hand clap, and some snares under a cut-up jazz tune. I was hoping to find something a little more interesting that retains its quality over a period of time instead of tracks that get maybe one or two plays out of them at best. G-Swing just comes across as lazy in the creative dept. after hearing a three or four different records (all by different artists). I've got a Nick Holder Sometimes I'm Blue on iK7 which seems to have stood the test of time. The Lina album sounds more interesting.
