Terminators
Well who knew there was an early "Terminator"?
(Well, I didn't)
Seems like there must be other ardkore / darkcore / jungle tekno songs titled "Terminator" or that sample from one or other of the film?
OK - but not one of Doc Scott's best. That same sample used on NoW's Aftermath - which I think comes from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRAShcsjdbg
Another take on Goldie's classic here: https://tempo.substack.com/p/tempo-part-3-time-travel-agents
NRG - The Terminator - 1991 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqNsdjsqfNM
Really nice use of the main theme, sampled in this (around 2:40) along with poltergeist & anita ward samples. Great tune. Biochip C - Hell's Bells - 1993 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqNsdjsqfNM
Yes Matt it's not one of the Doc's greatest - it's bit fixated on the one riff
Isn't the much used "something I feel" from the Cuba Gooding Snr version of "Happiness"?
NoW has a whole bunch of vocal licks from that e.g. "something unreal" "something going round my head" , "started again" - possibly "my vision is clear" too (that's definitely been used by somebody) . it's a sample-seam almost on a par with that Loleatta Holloway choice or the First Choice song
now this is something I didn't know - the original song was written by Brian Auger
