Making Prodigy’s “Smack My Bitch Up” in Ableton by Jim Pavloff
I have a better one.
It’s really cool, but to bad it’s just him redoing the song, And not making something totally new this way 
nice vid ment to be going to their gig at the weekend in dublin.
but not going now
Dope vid! They got everything correct except the middle chanting.. that was done by a singer named Shahin Badar, not the sample mentioned in the vid. Great work nonetheless.
This may the stupidest comment I’ve ever read on this site.
Use the samples they use and produce something half as decent as their version. You fail? No wonder.
Check yourself Tobert - yours was far from constructive.
Blah, blah.
It’s just the people that are like “OMG ARTIST X USED A SAMPLE, LOL, THEY SUCK!”, while they do not see the skill invovled in making a nice sample into an awesome song.
Sampling is an art.
I stand corrected:
"Actually, The Prodigy did sample Sheila Chandra on early promotional white label version of Smack My Bitch Up.
When it came time to replace the sample with an original vocal, The Prodigy first asked Sheila Chandra to sing an original vocal line. She refused because she thought the song was “vulgar” so The Prodigy got Shahin Badar to do the vocal instead.
The fact that Jim knows this incredibly obscure fact makes the inclusion of Sheila Chandra in this tutorial video even more impressive!"
it’s not that obscure - the early live versions of SMBU had the original vocal sample in it… I seem to remember hearing it out a couple of times before they replaced it with the new vocal.
God I hate music snobbery
Edit: oh and thanks for the video man, loving stuff like this 
Who are you to judge what the post is aimed at? No where did it say anything like “OMG ARTIST X USED A SAMPLE, LOL, THEY SUCK!” All the video showed was how the track was made, nothing about how the track sucking…
Not to mention that comment from “Beefy23” that you ripped apart was not bagging on anything in this thread or saying that Prodigy sucks for sampling…
Seconded. Has there been edit in this thread or is the beef23 a misquote? I’m confused.
I’m kinda wondering the same thing myself…
hi guys a kinda confused to wat was wrong with my comment.i liked vid and i just said that i was missing their gig at the weekend.
ps im a major fan of the prodigy
Tobert, shouldn’t fly off the handle, cause see how you look ASSuming..
Good call stephen. Some of the newer members perhaps need to think and/or clarify the meaning of a post before criticising it. No need for unnecessarily negativity guys. Cool videos btw lads!
lol we all know what happens you ASSume things…
Oops, just saw the mess I made!
Sorry, I was pretty drunk and didn’t understand that post at all. 
LOL @ Tobert and the rest!!!
That was nuts…
