OK, I don't have my "Ex:El" CD in front of me, so I can't remember this exact track - but which song was this sample taken from? (I think it was Ex:El... SOMEONE should know this)...

Very early 1980's sounding, almost electro-ish sort of track with very smooth vocals:

"You told me... you told me... you told me so -ah ah ahhh ahhhhh"

It's starting around minute 11:20 of this old Frankie Knuckles mix (from 1984!), which has some really excellent old New Wave & disco cuts on it. You can go to the page if you want a higher quality MP3 version.

Actually, I think the tune I'm referring to is:

Thelma Houston - You Used To Hold Me So Tight

I can't remember the 808 tune that sampled it... but when I heard the original, it all came back in this huge rush!

cf.

You used to hold me you used to hold me so tiiiiiiight.... that's the one!

But anyway, you can listen to that Frankie Knuckles mix (start @minute 11:20)... which I'd recommend anyway.

Thanks much,
Jonathan

Both the Thelma Houston sample and the Unique sample are used on Ancodia.
