top 5 most famous uses of the Amen break

[bzawk]

I got really pumped when I heard Eyeless.

[arte]

Why no drum and bass? Thats the main genre that uses the break

[lidder]

it was more used in early jungle and rave tracks from 1990 91 92 etc

[uriah]

I appreciate how you cut to the chase, and not drag on for 5 minutes.

[EveryOtherWeekendRVA]

Didn’t the beastie boys and run dmc use it like 49 times? They’re pretty famous

[TheEverlong]

Toby Fox (Undertale composer) used the sample on the last fight with Flowey

[MerlynMusicman]

I find it absolutely bizarre that it is claimed you only know this rhythm because of a track written in the 60's or 70's or w/e

[mygaffer]

That break was used in the video game Ridge Racer for the original PlayStation I'm almost certain.

[analyzingfunny]

Frank Zappa used it too in Apostrophe.

[pedrisk]

dude how can you forget the powerpuff girls opening man that one is the best of all

[andrewrunagall]

What about Shy FX's Original Nutter? or even Mantronix's King of the Beats?

[TheEarthnicity]

Woah Slipknot took the last lick instead of the first one. Nice

[KiiiickAaass]

This video should be re-titled Top 5 Unironically Unoriginal Uses of an Uncompensated Audio Sample.

[Wally-H]

Mantronix 'King of the Beats', one of the biggest hip hop records of all time, doesn't count then?

[MedlifeCrisis]

Without ShyFX and UK Apache this is meaningless. No one cares about Slipknot outside America, but yet you choose then as the only drum and bass sample. Drum and bass sampled the Amen break more than any other genre

[sharp_shot_]

I figured out untitled 5 by Kendrick uses the amen break after hearing the beginning of straight outa Compton

[peanutbutternjorm]

well know all I will notice in eyeless is the beat lol

[FunGhoul]

It's also the opening bit for heavydirtysoul by twenty one pilots! :)

[QuartzOfficial]

powerpuff girls isnt in this video because it uses funky drummer

[demonsweatthings]

Wow I never realised Pigs was using the Amen Break. it's just so pitched/slowed down
