    Default The world's most important 6-sec drum loop

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SaFTm2bcac

    If you haven't seen this before i would highly suggest checking it out !

    Summed up - its about the history of the Amen break, its influence its had on culture and its use without the fear of violating copyright laws.

    Its pretty amazing what 6 seconds back in 1969 has done for us culturally, i find it a shame that this sort of thing is not being allowed to continue

    If it wasn't for the Amen break we wouldn't have drum and bass, i hate to think of all the other cultural movements we have missed out on because of such strict copyright laws.

    Video is called "Can I Get An Amen?" by artist Nate Harrison, and it's a recording of his art piece where you enter a room, go up to the SL1210 and put the needle on the record yourself. Only a single acetate of the recording was made to highlight the impermanence of the... zzzzzzzz<snore>. Sorry, fell asleep there.

    He also made a video about the history of the Roland TB303 called "Bassline baseline".
