March 29 Information
In this video: ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Koj-zau52bk), who is the black guitarist that licks his guitar at 00:41 ? It's driving me crazy. Matt714 03:13, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- See Jimi Hendrix - the video, if I remember correctly, is the Monterey Pop Festival. It is the one where he set his guitar on fire also. -- Kainaw (talk) 19:48, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- Looks like Bo Diddley to me. Karlusss 21:52, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
I am aware that it is Jimi Hendrix. I'm talking about the black man at 00:41. Matt714 02:05, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Sorry. I got bored about 5 seconds into it. Karlusss is correct. It is Bo Diddley. -- Kainaw (talk) 12:33, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Moved to Computing
Nearing the conclusion in the film, Gary (the Liverpudlian) is seeking revenge for the shooting of his friend, and bursts into a room firing two pistols, screaming "YOU BASTARD", killing Hatchet Harry. What is the music played during this scene?

- I don't know off hand, but check the soundtrack listing at IMDb. − Twas Now ( talk • contribs • e-mail ) 01:22, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Ah i thought it might be on there, but after youtubing all of the titles, none sounded like the music. Some additional information for people who might help, the music plays for about 10 secs during the film at 1.25.53(ish. I might trawl through the credits later, see if i can find it in there. 88.109.200.67 16:05, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Where would a music producer of for example rap/hip-hop music actually get the drum sounds used in beats from? I don't mean ones that have actually been performed and recorded. Sorry, this is sorta hard to explain. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Dylan-thompson ( talk • contribs) 21:23, 29 March 2007 (UTC).
- There's nothing magical about drum sounds. As with any sound, your basic choices are to use a recording of the sound, or to use a synthesizer. The question is made a bit trickier because one technique that a synthesizer might use is to play back a recording of a sound (see Sample-based synthesis). Typically, a drum machine or drum module will have recorded sounds of actual drums, and recordings of synthesized drum sounds. Some modules may even do the synthesizing themselves, altho I don't know how common this is. Friday (talk) 21:40, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
While watching a dodgy old video in a geography lesson at school the other day about deserts or something in south/central America, i noticed it played part of the song Blueprint 2 by Jay-z. I thought this was strange can anyone help me with information concerning this?
- I wonder if the problem is that the video was older than the Blueprint² song (apparently from the bonus album on The Blueprint²: The Gift & the Curse). According to the article, Jay-Z has sampled (Italian movie soundtrack legend) Ennio Morricone's song "The Ecstasy Of Gold". That probably explains it. 惑乱 分からん * \)/ (\ (< \) (2 /) /)/ * 23:25, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
What is the name of that actress who is a midget in that movie who had sex with Dwight Stifler?
- They should have it at IMDb... I'll check-- $UIT 02:28, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
