[mikemillion2000]

Recalling how many times I spun this record and scratched it at the School Park james in the early 80's in the Bronx.... The Amazin Hell Raisin 2-40 crew from Monroe Avenue 4 eva!!! Shout out to Kid Cowboy, Kevie-O, Ike-U-Like, Jazzy Jeff, Money Mike, especially my main brotha D-Ha-Ron... miss making all those demo tapes on Saturdays in the summer...rest in peace..

[quemacha]

Does anyone recall an early 90's hip hop song which sampled the "I want action" portion?

[feistychick70]

@quemacha - The only song that I can remember is "Nicety" by Mi'chelle...

[LatinPercussion]

Treacherous 3 - Action!

[abcdefghjklmnrst]

[1800PETMEDS]

Davy D you are the best

[MrAJKid]

kanye west smapled dis on we major from late regristration

[meechamaka411]

Russell "Rush" Simmons, Larry Smith, DJ Davy DMX, Kurtis Blow...THE ORANGE CRUSH PRODUCTION TEAM HAD SHIT ON SMASH IN THE EARLY TO MID 80s!!!

[shogeist]

Does anyone know how they got the snare to sound like this? apart from the reverb of course.

[allroundpower]

Its not reverb. Its called "Gated reverb". Phil Colins used the Lexicon reverb effect box at over £2000 a shot back in the 80's.

Everybody else used cheaper versions until eventually the sound sounded just right Lo- Fi style.

[resus80]

@allroundpower and shogeist.

I'm not too sure if this is a gated reverb. It sure is a heavy plate reverb, just like in old Schooly D songs.

If u wanna do gated reverbs on ur DAW u have to use a sidechained gate to trigger the reverb. Nice effect for sure, if it fits that is.

[highvoltaged]

Its not a gated reverb here. listen to 1:58. its a very simple filtered white noise with a decay mixed on top of the snare. you can hear the clean snare later on. the reverb is a shortish room reverb.

[shogeist]

@highvoltaged Yeah, that's it thanks. I made something similar by creating a white noise snare with some processing, mainly EQ, and putting that on top of a snare from a break.

[RedRoomNW]

@highvoltaged I think so to..... And Id almost put money on that they were using an eventide harmonizer for the super-short delay, pitched side to side to give it that even more of that "smack" effect....almost like Charlie's "Spacer Woman"...check it.

[wewhantcairo]

sucker mc run dmc

[jaysundawn]

Kids every Tru Hip hOp artists and fan knows this break. MCs have been using everything from the beat to the guitar riffs since the 80's- Example... Special Ed used the chorus on his first album and Organized Confusion used the breakdown. My point is- just like the "Funky Drummer" no point to try and figure out who used this break- it has been and will continue to be used by every producer in the game- that's why it' goes down in Break And Cratediggin' history.

[deno545]

@jaysundawn thats my peeps on the guitar

[koolanddagang12]

where did kanye use this? I know it was for We Major, but where in this song is it?

[koolanddagang12]

ha never mind, that was a dumb question

[ilovemyfamilyg83]

The sample is used during the whole song in We Major from begining to end. the beat pattern is exactly the same as this just slowed down a little.

[koolanddagang12]

haha ya i realized it when i listened to it again, but thanks.

[ilovemyfamilyg83]

Hey no problem

[kfcbisquitsmmgd]

no he chopped the drums

[Sauce303]

He slowed the drums down, the pitch. u can hear it in the begining

[floydc1]

Yeah...Allison WIlliams is on the vocals for this.

[MisterBings]

Davy Dmx and Larry Smith = Orange Krush

[taylor4660]

inspired Sucker Mcs....this was used in the Phat Farm Commercials....Russell produced this

[kevinxkush]

We major

[hustlaave]

NO NO NO this came out before Sucker MC's. Run says it in his lyrics. "Took a test to become an MC, and ORANGE KRUSH became amazed at me"

[Bnhudson]

dr. dre sampled this song for michele and caleed it nicety.

[gunmansole]

Its the inspiration behind run dmc sucker mcs which was directed at melle mel

melle mel responded to sucker mcs on step off with the line " if i got to be a sucker suck on this "

I never liked this song i thought it was too new to be featured on a ultimate breaks & beat album.

[shocktroop5]

Sucker MC's

[kmf1967]

Anyone know where you can find their other song AM PM? We used to spin that hard back in Bmore in the early 80's.

[Mashdnhappi]

this tune is absolutely fkin brilliant.

[kevshine]

the chipmunk voice is Russell Simmons

[SpankRamen2]

@kevshine:

OMG! Seriously? 

[SickSense123]

Also "We Major" by Kanye except that version is slowed down

[keyzopendoorz]

been looking 4 this a loooooooooooooooooong time! Good look

[Britnney1021]

Wax, "And my woman was on my back"!!..Break at 4:11..

[Britnney1021]

Wax, thanks for posting..Haven't heard this in a long time..Sweet memories!!I got eyes and I'd like too see, what it is you'll do for me!!!..Nice!!

[waxwarrior03]

np=) enjoy it!

[IllMil]

Bump the sample. Give props to vocalist Alyson Williams, who went on to have her own solo R&B career in the late 80s and 90s and was a leading Def Jam background singer (see Oran Juice Jones' and Chuck Stanley's work)

[Drew1914]

True Dat!

The beat of this great jam was sampled by Michel'le on her song 'Nicety', also the chorus line from this was sampled by Poison Clan on their track

'Action'

Peace \/ :-)

[Mashdnhappi]

Drew1914, it's also been sampled in a lot of drum'n'bass tunes from 2000 onwards, for example Roni Size, and a few others. Its mainly the heavy kick and that immense snare they sampled tho

[newportvtman]

sounds like kurtis blow music.

[kevshine]

same producer

[Tenatu]

Also "Sucker MC's" - Run DMC

[ness120]

great song. Thanks for posting buddy...

[cosmosios]

classic tune-------- sampled also by a german hip hop group called "die fantastischen 4" on their first album "jetzt gehts ab"--- Thx for posting it!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[waxwarrior03]

youre welcome=)

[julkee]

Kanye West uses this song as a sampler in his song "We Mayor" from Iate Registration

But seriously, I don't find the similiarity

[uttersupreme]

he slows down the drum beat.

[merkanthony]

yea he just takes the drum track

[Ollyhz]

he just used the drum roll

[AYIBOBO11]

Michelle "Nasty" 1990

[sgtfunksta28]

This is a good song to throw on and scratch to.

[waxwarrior03]
