Does anyone know the origin of the samples not found in The Omega Man? Any help would be great. I may end up editing the mystery clips from the CD in Ableton.
Easy ones from Omega Man:
“Martial law is now nationwide”
“We shall cleanse the world”
Mystery samples:
“Death will be everywhere” - thought for sure this would be in the movie, never heard it (or missed it)
“Free” or “Three” (deep voice) - this may possibly be a pitched sample from Omega Man, unsure
“Ohhhhhhhhh” (man wailing)
“Do” or “Do it” - sounds like a low-quality sample, easy enough to grab from the CD
WHOA. I seriously hear it both ways. Fuck, maybe ‘this will be over’ IS a line in the movie! The “do it” is more like a muffled “do” or “do it” that happens around 3:25 (on YGDSOB, the version I listen to the most).
I guess “Death will be everywhere” just seemed to make sense, in line with “martial law…” and the general theme of the film (I thought it would be in the newscasts early on). Time to double-check.
Well, if it is ‘this will be over’, it’s not from Omega Man. I may just end up cutting a loop out of the BSL version, which I’m already doing with other samples. I’ve grabbed the original drums off the start of the song which will be the bare-bones beat, and will be layering them with the live drum samples from YGDSOB, so the ‘sample loops’ - in theory - should embed somewhat seamlessly.
I’m not sure what it’s saying, as i was WAY off on the omega man samples you pointed out(but now it’s totally obvious). However, I’m sure that isn’t saying “Death will be everywhere” It’s funny, once you get what you think a sample is stuck in your head, you’ll hear it like that forever. Anyway, let us know if you ever solve the mystery.
FYI I always thought the “do it” was just richard 23

i listening to We Shall Cleanse The World (you goddamned son of a bitch) full blast. i’m positive he either says “this will be over” or “this will be your war”. [b]
Cool, thanks guys. I ended up cutting some loops out of the studio version, live version, and Razormaid Mix (which had the wailing ‘ohhhhhh’ voice up front in the mix with no bass, very nice), and applied a high-pass filter to remove the low end. I’m programming the Cleanse sequence tonight, and will be embedding the loops into my own percussion tracks. In theory, it should sound pretty good…we shall see!
The “do” or “do it” sample I speak of is not part of the vocals, it’s a very short, almost muffled ‘stab’ voice that only comes up once or twice in the song. I’m probably wrong on that word, too! It’s completely isolated in the Razormaid Mix, bonus.
I was 17 when YGDSOB came out, and once I had that sample in my head, it just stuck that way. I also remember singing wrong lyrics along to 242 and Ministry back in the day. shrug I was young.
