GIve it a listen, its actually pretty cool.OH, and original song for those of you who haven't heard it:

[Gnarshred]

Damnn! that site is dope! +k from music nerds everywhere.

 

[bigbromskier]

Ya that lil guitar riff you're talking about is actually sampled from NWA/Eazy E and Too Short..definitely a sick sample

idk if that'll work; we'll see. Song's Player's Club if if doesn't come up.

 

[bigbromskier]

Not sure if that's actually the original, but probably......

Passion Pit in 6 days can't wait!

 

[nickyp]

I bet Passion Pit hoped this would never surface, so they could take credit for the really mellow, nice melody

 

[Ryan*]

Woah that's sick, leave it to Passion Pit to sample Celtic folk songs!+K, I love Passion Pit. Went to their Governor's Island show...SO SICK.

 

[Alex_G]

doubt it...i bet they just made it for fun like every other musician

 

[ECfreeski3]

hahaha that button is hilarious

 

[wolvmatt]

What? People are making threads about single songs now?

 

[applejuice.]

lol they were actually really stoked on in it. if you see them play live they sample more of the actually song itself.

 

[bob1233456]

haha, just checked up some live videos on youtube, they actually do use the sample a lot more.

 

[Zent33zy]

holy shit!

 

[wall.e]

patience by damian marley samples the song sabali by amadou and mariam.

 

[theabortionator]

I didn't know that. I knew they sampled something but I don't really track stuff down.

 

[Nathn]

It's obviously a sample are you stupid? Do you really think they'd come up with a melody, record it, speed it up, raise the pitch and then put a high pass filter on? They would just play it on a keyboard or something.
