That's the ncis doctor.... Didn't know he composed, definitely wouldn't have associated him with West Coast rappers.

What did you learn today? Share it with us!
We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

That's awesome, I had no idea he was behind that tune. I hope he got paaaaiiiid!
Lol you'd already have to be paid to release that many albums of just instrumentals. This was before mixtapes and would've actually cost a pretty penny to make back then.
Also wasn't there a big thing about artists like this not getting paid for their samples being used? I remember a story of the guy who made the drum beat sampled in dozens of really popular songs that never saw a dime.
Ah yeah, the Amen Break from Amen, Brother by the Winstons. There was actually a fundraiser for the guy a few years back, I threw in a few pounds, as his work has been the basis of a huge part of my musical taste!
Spot on. Couldn't remember the names but this is exactly the one I was remembering.
I love how often a sample leads me to listen to something I never would have otherwise. There was a torrent floating around that had all the songs Beastie Boys sampled for Paul's Boutique, it was fantastic.
Holy shit, thank you! You have no idea how long I've wanted to know where the main sample from Brass Monkey came from.
Check out WhoSampled. It's the largest resource regarding samples/covers.
Thanks! That's a great resource! I enjoy secondhandsongs.com to see who has done cover versions. Sometimes I find out a song I really like isn't even original to the artist I thought it was!
They liked diggin' down deep in the record bin!
Ladadada, it's the mothafuckin D R E!
Holy shit this is an insane bit of trivia for work tomorrow, thanks Squid
Thanks, Duck!
Ilya Kuryakin!
Kicking it old school ;)
I'd like the story on how Dre got to hear that bit.
Digging thru the crates at the thrift stores and flea markets relentlessly
Also Ducky wasn't a cannibal. Which can't be said for the Other Ilya...
Honestly they’re excellent. I ran across A Taste of Honey while listening to the Apple Music Cocktail Party playlist.
Oh that's a smooth track! Cheers
Ok. Thats pretty cool!
Awesome track, much appreciated!
That's a good composition but an even better recording.
