Just yesterday Shadetek & I were wondering about the sample Conquest uses in “Forever”. Veiled Gazette points out this post, which locates the source sample for that, as well as a few other dubsteppey tunes from Burial (Sizzla!), etc.
The roaring crowd noise made it obvious that Conquest sampled a live show — Jamaican soundclash/gig footage has provided a notorious wealth of samples and entire acappellas for the last 15 years or more. Turns out that it was Barrington Levy, riffing slack on the ‘Here I Come’ riddim!

for the record, it’s “veiled gazelle”, but i think you just accidentally came up with the new name for my digest style posts…
“that veiled gazette”!
Hey Rupture, cheers for the nice words and for forwarding my Lock It Down post/blog. Much appreciated. Cheers.
One love
