The Unseen samples The Signs Part II

Quasimoto’s “The Unseen” (2000) is built on David Axelrod’s “The Signs Part II” (1971) — a sample that travelled 29 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 expert crate, worth 3 points in party mode.
