Sir Mustapha Group: Musicians Posts: 2802 Joined: April 2003 Posted: April 28 2003, 10:24 I'm not at home now, so I can't check out exactly which song it is, but I think it's Magellan, where I can hear some strong drum beats. I don't know if this has been pointed out before, but those drum beats sound, to me, EXACTLY like the drum beats that are played in Led Zeppelin's "When The Levee Breaks". Anyone knows something about that? Was that intentional? ... oh, yeah, I'm new here.

There is an Enigma track which does use a sample of When The Levee Breaks - it was perhaps an attempt at a similar sound, though I don't think it's the only place that a pattern like that has appeared. It's generally a lot easier copyright-wise to play a pattern again, rather than sample it off a record, as if it's sampled from the record it either has to be paid for, or the sampling artist takes the risk that it won't be recognised, doesn't pay for it, and comes in danger of being taken to court if discovered...
