Who sampled · 1990s · intermediate crate
The Bucketheads’s “The Bomb (These Sound Fall Into My Mind)” (1994) is built on Chicago’s “Street Player” (1979) — a sample that travelled 15 years to get there. In SAMPLE SAMPLE SAMPLE we spin the original and ask you to name the hit that flipped it. This one lives in the intermediate crate, worth 2 points in party mode.
