    SAMPLING:
    In music, the practice of capturing segments of
    existing recordings and including these captured
    'samples' in a new work.


    ===============================================================================

    A lot of Pop WILL Eat Itself's music relies on samples of film soundtracks, spoken voice recordings, television programs, and commercial music (Pop and otherwise) to provide atmosphere, reference points, themes, or even underlying
    structure to their compositions. This innovative and bold approach is a large part of PWEI's appeal. Many fans of their music were initially drawn to PWEI as
    the result of a particular sample. In my case, it was the groundbreaking use of
    the Twilight Zone TV theme in combination with the quasi-religious mantra of "Big Mac, fries to go!" on 'Def.Con.One' (Arguably their biggest US hit). For
    others, it might be Dirty Harry saying "Go ahead..." on 'Preaching To the Perverted', Jack Nicholson's Joker warning "Never rub another man's rhubarb!",
    or the gangs in the film 'The Warriors' yelling "Riffs - Yeah!" in 'Can U Dig It?'. Their more recent efforts have been utilising multiple layers of shorter
    samples to build textural or structural foundations for their music. Examples of this technique include the use of the 'Terminator 2' theme in 'Ich Bin Ein Auslander', and the U2 'Until The End Of The World' rhythm in 'MeNoFearTheReaper'. Regardless of the way it's applied, the technique of sampling is part of what makes PWEI PWEI!

    - Dave Read, list-minder ===============================================================================

    This list is a somewhat futile attempt to identify each and every 'sampled' segment contained in the vast panoply of PWEI's work. It is an outgrowth
    of a similar list originally collated and compiled by the following kind souls,
    whose contributions are greatly appreciated:

    * jasonst@panix.com (Jason Street)
    * ajsh@cs.warwick.ac.uk (Andrew Shires)
    * vamplew@probitas.cs.utas.edu.au (Peter Vamplew)
    * weitzman@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu (Adam J. Weitzman)
    * bmce1@cs.aukuni.ac.nz
    * jack@cwi.nl (Jack Jansen)
    * aipdc@castle.ed.ac.uk (Paul Crowley)
    * bm2e+@andrew.cmu.edu (Brendan P. McFeely)
    * time@sco.COM (Tim Ervin)
    * st883045@pip.cc.brandeis.edu (Jason Bilsky)
    * t.e.walsh@durham.ac.uk (Tezzer).
    * root@negativland.concorde.com (Joe Turner)

    Special thanks to Tezzer Walsh for doing the FAQ, for the discography, for passing me this list, and for keeping the PWEI torch lit. (Fanning the flames,
    and _not_ flaming the fans...) Attaboy, Tez!

    All contributions are welcome. Since there is no feasible method of veryifying

    LIST STRUCTURE:

    ----------------
    | Release Titles | appear inside boxes as shown.
    |----------------|

    { Composition Titles } appear inside curly (nyuk nyuk) brackets.

    (I) General information about a composition follows a big I.

    Sample ID descriptions follow arrows.

    (#1) Sample sources follow number (pound) symbols. Source
    titles appear inside 'Single Quotes'. The name of the
    person supplying the info appears in square brackets
    at the end of any remarks. [John 'Poppy' Doe - jd@junk.edu]

    # Unecessary editorial commentary by list-minder enclosed between pound signs #

    ==== Releases are separated by double lines.
    ---- Compositions are separated by single lines.

    ===============================================================================

    Changes for version 2.07:

    More new source IDs and interesting comments...
    Uncredited comments are leftovers from previous versions of the
    list - contributors are unknown. If anyone can fill in the blanks,
    drop me a line.

    Also, I seem to have had a bit of an organizational problem:
    somewhere along the line, I managed to lose several messages,
    including (I think) some with material for the sample list.
    If you sent something to me before Thanksgiving (Apologies to those
    not in the US... That's November 24.) and it doesn't appear
    in this version of the list, please please please send it again
    (accompanied by a severe reprimand if desired) and I'll make sure
    it gets in the next version.

    !N! <- New items to this version are marked thusly -> !N!

    [ Tezzer - T.E.Walsh@durham.ac.uk ]

    (#3) ...apparently Mark Ellen wetting his knickers on the Old

    [ Alison Crompton - crompton@vxs.ug.eds.com ]

    "Very much like scruffy pigs to look at" etc.

    (#1) This is Johnny Morris, a children's TV presenter on BBC1.
    He did a program that has finished now, called `Animal
    Magic' which basically talked about animals. He also did
    silly voice overs to footage of animals in their habitats
    (often zoos -- shows the Beeb weren't worried about zoo
    ethics a few years back :-)
    [ Andrew Shires - ajsh@cs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "Are you aware of the razor's edge on which you're living?"

    (#1) This is taken from an interview with Donald Campbell
    before he got into Bluebird and attempted the speed
    record. I remember hearing this in an episode of 'The
    Rock And Roll Years'.

    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { Beaver Patrol }

    "Attention young ladies! Attention young ladies!"

    (Source unidentified)

    "I`m out!"

    (#1) From crappy 70's trucking film called 'Convoy'.
    [ Martin Grainger - mjg100@tower.york.ac.uk ]

    "How d`ya keep your wheels spinnin`, when the Beaver`s grinnin`?"

    (#1) From 'Convoy' also. It fits the film and also the voice
    speaking sounds familiar.
    [ Mr M L Wrightman - pyucq@csv.warwick.ac.uk ]

    (#2) From one of the 'Smokey And The Bandit' films.
    (#1, I think.) There's a bit where the police have forced
    a truck driver to talk to Burt Reynolds on the CB and he
    says the above. (I've only seen the film once, really.)
    [ Ian Whitfield - iwhitfie@lehman.com ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    "do one more..."

    (#1) (Source unknown, but) also in Art of Noise's (live)
    'Peter Gunn Theme'

    (#2) This is definitely Duane Eddy, sampled from a _studio_ mix
    of 'Peter Gunn' that I've got somewhere.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "..precisely"

    (#1) Speaking clock again!
    [ Andrew Shires - ajsh@cs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { U.B.L.U.D (United By Love Until Death) }

    Kind of a gulping noise. (A very abruptly edited sample)

    (Source unknown)

    Infinite looping vocal "Ahhh"

    (#1) I could easily be wrong, but it sounds like Jon
    Anderson of Yes. [ Dave Read - daviread@delphi.com ]

    (#2) Don't think this can really be credited as a sample as a
    young lady called Ruth was credited somewhere for doing
    some girly vocals for them.
    [ Alison Crompton - crompton@vxs.ug.eds.com ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { Inside You }

    (No samples identified)

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Loving Feeling' [ Tezzer - T.E.Walsh@durham.ac.uk ]

    "She loves me... She loves me not!" (Female voice)

    (#1) Sounds like Dianna Rigg as Emma Peel in the TV show
    'The Avengers' [ Dave Read - daviread@delphi.com ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { She's Surreal }

    That wailing bit before "When she wears hoop stockings..."

    (#1) From some Marc Bolan / T Rex ditty.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { Intergalactic Love Mission }

    "We're here to take care of you"

    (Source unidentified)

    Porn movie heavy breathing

    (Source unidentified)

    "Leave a sample in the jar please!"

    (#1) This is from a low-budget 60's horror film called 'The
    House That Dripped Blood' or some other nonsense. Anyway,
    there's a woman who is in a trance, and ectoplasm starts
    worming out of the end of her fingers, and a bloke who is
    studying this phenomena as a scientific experiment tells
    her to leave a sample of the ectoplasm in a jar. I know
    it sounds dodgy, but it's true!
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { Love Missle F1-11 }

    "Woo! Come on everybody"

    (#1) Eddie Cochrane, from the song of the same name.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]


    (I) This is a remake of Sigue Sigue Sputnik's song
    [ Adam J. Weitzman - weitzman@chaos.cs.brandeis.edu ]

    (I) There are also many references to the Poppies earlier singles:
    `She tried to shoot the Poppies, but the POPPIES SAY GRRR..'
    'She went to the disco, `cos she wanted to rock
    But the guys on the door said, "it`s just POPPIECOCK"'
    'She asked me could she borrow my F1-11
    I said it`s SWEET SWEET PIE, and took her up to heaven.."'
    [ Tezzer - T.E.Walsh@durham.ac.uk ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { Hit The Hi-Tech Groove }

    "Tay, tay, tay, tay" etc.

    (#1) Mel and Kim Appleby's 'Respectable'
    [ Peter Vamplew - vamplew@probitas.cs.utas.edu.au ]

    (I) Quote should be "Take, take, take, take" etc. because the
    next line in 'Respectable' is "Take a little time..."
    [ Cyndy Lee - cyndylee@delphi.com ]

    "Stand and deliver!"

    (#1) 'Stand and Deliver' by Adam and the Ants.
    [ Peter Vamplew - vamplew@probitas.cs.utas.edu.au ]

    There is a _big_ section (bass and melody)

    (#1) from 'The Jack That House Built', an oldish house track
    by Jack 'n' Chill. [bmce1@cs.aukuni.ac.nz]

    "Don't mean robbin', stealin', or muggin'."

    (#1) A song called 'We're Only Bugging' by Whistle.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { Razorblade Kisses }

    (I) This is the music to an old BBC children's programme (with small
    caricature models done with stop-frame animation) called
    Camberwick Green (it is basically about the people in a town
    called Camberwick Green and usually involves scenes with windmills
    and things :-) [ Andrew Shires - ajsh@cs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "This is a musical box.." bit at the start

    (#1) sounds like part of a UK children's show called
    PlaySchool, however this is just a guess. I do know it
    was also used as an intro to "Burundi Blues" by Beats
    International.
    [ Peter Vamplew - vamplew@probitas.cs.utas.edu.au ]

    (#2) Could that too be taken from 'Camberwick Green','Trumpton'
    or perhaps 'Chigley'?(Similar stop-frame children`s shows)

    (#3) The sample is definitely Brian Cant speaking at the
    beginning of either 'Camberwick Green' or 'Trumpton'
    (can't remember which). Also, the music box tune is
    ripped off 'Evelyn'.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    !N! (#4) Definitely defo from the BBC 1 educational short-story
    program 'Music Box', that I remember being force-fed
    in primary school. (verified by Graham Crabb)
    [ Darren White - d.white@shu.ac.uk ]

    { PWEI Is A Four Letter Word }

    "P WEI...PWE...I"

    (#1) from PWEI's 'Radio PWEI'

    "This is the sound of..."

    (#1) PWEI's 'Hit the High-Tech Groove' [bmce1@cs.aukuni.ac.nz]

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    { Preaching To The Perverted }

    "ugly"

    (#1) PWEI`s 'Ugly' [ Andrew Shires - ajsh@cs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "Go ahead..."

    (#1) Clint Eastwood's classic line from "Dirty Harry"

    "Kick a hole in the speaker"

    (#1) Eric B. and Rakim (I don't know which song)
    [bmce1@cs.aukuni.ac.nz]

    (#2) It could be from 'Paid In Full' - that was Eric B. and
    Rakim's main hit single.
    [ Tezzer - T.E.Walsh@durham.ac.uk ]

    "This is the law!"

    (#1) Animal men from the film 'The Island Of Doctor Moreau'
    [ Dave Read - daviread@delphi.com ]

    (I) On the version that appears on the '16 Different Flavours Of Hell'
    compilation, the drumbeat is sampled from 'Cicciolina'. (It
    features dfferent lyrics, oddly)
    [DJ Duncy C - D.Corps@herts.ac.uk ]

    (I) The version on '16 Diff...' is in fact the remix version (by Flood
    I think, - though it could be Youth) which appeared on the 'Dance
    Of The Mad' single. [ Tezzer - T.E.Walsh@durham.ac.uk ]

    In the remix version there are several little guitar samples

    (#1) They're from Jimi Hendrix: 'Foxy Lady', from the riff
    right after he stops and says "Foxy lady".
    [ Dave Read - daviread@delphi.com ]

    (I) In the remix, they sampled "sheet" from "...stains on the sheet..."
    and inserted it into the following line so it becomes "...sheet on
    the pavement..." (Accompanied by a little censor's "beep"). But
    actually, I think it gives the tune a little more meaning,
    considering the police practice of covering a murder victim with a
    sheet... [ Dave Read - daviread@delphi.com ]

    "Can you dig it?"

    (#1) From the film 'The Warriors'. (See comments in 'Can U
    Dig It?'.) [ Dave Read - daviread@delphi.com ]

    "Oh yeah"

    (#1) On the remix, it's taken from the Poppies' own 'Ugly'.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "Make some noise!"

    (#1) The intro to the 'It Takes A Nation Of Millions' album
    by Public Enemy.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "Shake what you got!"

    (#1) Salt 'N' Pepa, 'Shake Your Thang'
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "Yeah that's right, kick it!"

    (#1) A sample from a track that escapes me on Public Enemy's
    'Yo! Bum Rush The Show'.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "Hell yeah (Hell yeah)"

    (#1) Talky bit before 'Terminator X To The Edge Of Panic' on
    Public Enemy's '...Nation Of Millions' album.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    "The perverts! The perverts! Coming out of the closet!"

    (#1) The Shamen sampled this quote from some American
    evangelist on 'Jesus Loves America' (Is it Jimmy
    Swaggert?), so it could have come from either source.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    !N! (I) I can't actually proffer much more evidence, but it is
    DEFINITELY a US tele-evangelist of mid-eighties vintage.
    Whilst watching Saturday 12th November's edition of
    'Late Again' (a weekly compilation of the BBC arts
    strand 'The Late Show') there was an item on the
    Christian Right in the US, and their increasing
    interest in previously secular forms of media, including
    music and videogames. During this, there was a brief
    montage of US tele-evangelists, including a clip of a
    man (not Jim Bakker, but could easily be Swaggart)
    talking about how he was "...sick and tired of the
    commies, the pinkos... the atheists, the perverts...
    coming out of the closet..." and general ranting about
    the threat of nice, rational, tolerant people to the
    very fabric of society, etc. etc.
    [ Dan Staines - dms@mole.bio.cam.ac.uk ]

    Drum fanfare before the above quote

    (#1) Taken from 'Kray Twins' by Renegade Soundwave (Just after
    "I'm much obliged, boys").

    { Wise Up! Sucker }

    "She loves me not" (spoken)

    of The Wonder Years (Clint's old flat-mate) - he's credited as
    'Twig the Wonder Twig'. [ Tezzer - T.E.Walsh@durham.ac.uk ]

    (I) Shouldn't that be Miles Hunt of 'The Wonder Stuff'?

    "You played it for her, now play it for me. Play it."

    (#1) Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca [bmce1@cs.aukuni.ac.nz]

    About 2 minutes in, there's a sample of a girl singing. It's also
    used on a B-side on the 'Wise Up Sucker' 12", called 'Orgyone
    Stimulator'. You have to listen very hard to hear it. The sample
    makes up the basis of this tune.

    (#1) Possibly 'We Care A Lot' by Faith No More.
    [Joe Turner - root@negativland.concorde.com]

    (#2) I reckon it's The Buzzard, myself, but this is not the
    time or place for a debate...
    [ Tezzer - T.E.Walsh@durham.ac.uk ]

    # NOTE: Sure it is!... Let's hear some more opinions. _Dave_ #

    (#3) OK. My opinion is that it isn't Faith No More - I've got
    that song and although it's similar, I don't think it's
    sampled here.
    [ Peter Vamplew - vamplew@probitas.cs.utas.edu.au ]

    !N! (#4) I think it sounds more like RamJam Corporation's
    'Black Betty' than Faith No More's 'We Care A Lot'.
    [ Mark Lambert - marklam@microsoft.com ]

    (#1) Isn't this from 'The Warriors' as well?

    "...you pick the heart! And remember-"

    (#1) From the movie 'Robocop'
    [ Paul Crowley - aipdc@castle.ed.ac.uk ]

    "Elway is going for the bomb..."

    (#1) as in football quarterback John Elway of the Denver
    Broncos) I think there are also samples from
    'Transformers: The Movie' in here.
    [ Brendan P. McFeely - bm2e+@andrew.cmu.edu ]

    (I) It's almost certainly from Superbowl XXII - Denver vs
    Washington. Ricky Nattiel scored on a bomb from Elway on
    Denver's first play.
    [ Peter Vamplew - vamplew@probitas.cs.utas.edu.au ]

    "This is THIS... This ain't somethin' else!"

    { Poison To The Mind }

    "Somewhere in the sprawling metropolis, another job for..."

    (#1) Superman?

    (#2) This was taken from a Rice Krispies ad from ages ago where
    Snap, Crackle and Pop are portrayed as superheroes.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]

    # Snap, Crackle and Pop Will Eat Itself! _Dave_ #

    "Music is just... Organized noise"
    "I don`t like songs"
    -> "Poison to the Mind"

    (Source unknown)

    { Def.Con.One }

    music under "Big Mac, fries to go"

    (#1) The Twilight Zone theme (along with part of the
    beginning monologue)

    "Right now!"

    (#1) The Creatures (Siouxsie and Budgie from the Banshees'
    side project), from their version of 'Right Now'
    [naragget@orion.oac.uci.edu]

    (#2) This sounds like something from a 60's chewing gum
    commercial! [ Dave Read - daviread@delphi.com ]

    (#3) It's definitely from the Creatures' track.
    [ Simon Salwan - ssalman@dcs.warwick.ac.uk ]


    "Let's get down to it boppers"

    (#1) The film 'The Warriors'
    [ Tim Ervin - time@sco.COM ]

    (I) Special tie-in note: Renegade Soundwave uses the last line
    from 'The Warriors' on the 12th song of their CD
    'Soundclash'. [ Tim Ervin - time@sco.COM ]

    (I) In the single version of 'Def.Con.One', the entire drum track is
    sampled from 'Beat Dis' by Bomb the Bass. The drums were
    re-recorded for the album version though (unfortunately).

    Drum 'roll' at beginning and repeated throughout tune

    (#1) Is a standard sample, used _everywhere_ (I think it's from
    some old Motown soul track).

    High-pitched melodic line after "Ground floor... coming up!"

    (#1) Melody from Lipps Inc's 'Funky Town' (sampled or
    rerecorded?)

    !N! (#2) Sampled from the Aussie group Pseudo Echo's cover
    version of Lipps Inc's 'Funky Town'. (verified by
    Graham Crabb)
    [ Darren White - d.white@shu.ac.uk ]

    (I) The "ground floor - coming up" line could be a quote from the
    graphic novel 'Watchmen' by Dave Gibbons & Alan Moore (Who is
    also referred to in 'Can U Dig It?').
    [ Dave Read - daviread@delphi.com ]

    (I) The whole song has Watchmen quotes from "Big Mac, fries to go!" to
    "Ten to Doomsday".

    "To the left/To the right y'all"

    [ Douglas Bonser - SPIKE_DWB@delphi.com ]

    (I) Not a sample, but the line "We'll talk of anything, everything if
    you want, thing." is VERY similar to the following line from Pink
    Floyd's 'Bike' off of 'The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn': "I'll
    give you anything, everything that you want, thing."
    [ Douglas Bonser - SPIKE_DWB@delphi.com ]

    (I) "Astley's in the noose..." - A reference to The Wonder Stuff's
    'Astley In The Noose'?? [ Douglas Bonser - SPIKE_DWB@delphi.com ]


    The horn fanfare at the beginning is taken from some James Brown
    track ('This Is A Man's World'?).
