This has been buggin me 4 some years now and i wanna know the answer.

House of pain had a tune out in the early 90's (93 - 94 ?) called "jump around" and i think it has the screem at the begining of "Gett Off" sampled onto its chorus.

Can any1 confirm this as its driving me crazy like an itch i cannot scratch.

Thanks Orgers

there was no prince sample, it is a horn stab

WRONG. It's part of the opening scream from "Gett Off".

umm no its not... trust me

I despise this song with all my heart.

I thought it sucked 15 years ago or so, and I still think its weak.

I was however pleasantly surprised by Everlast on whitey ford.

The sample to me always sounded like prince.

This song brings out every nucklehead in a bar without fail.

Please bury it in a far away place.

and me

it was a white rendition of kris kross jump...it all sounded the same to me then

Well I know I'm right. Do an A-B comparison and you'll see.

DJ Muggs said he took a horn riff and sampled it. Simple as that.

Mong said:

.. that the pitches sliding upward do not occur in the "Gett Off" intro squeal.

It's very easy to do that with a pitch bend wheel. The tonality is exactly the same. Do you really think that DJ Muggs will be truthful and say what he really used and get sued for not clearing a sample?

Mong said:

Thing is, Muggs used the "horn squeal" on other projects. That kinda became his signature gimmick, so I doubt he was playing the "sample game."

let it go if he wants to think its Prince let em think it, thing is we know the truth and well..
