Amazed that people don’t know The Orb, they were pretty big in the US too but maybe only in certain scenes.
Rickie was none too pleased by her being sampled, she had a stinking cold when doing the interview so sounded v out of it which worked perfectly on the song, anyway I think she got some decent money because of it
The other main sample is Pat Metheny’s guitar from Steve Reich’s Electric Counterpoint, Steve was flattered by the sampling and didn’t sue, the drums are sampled from a drum break on Harry Nillson’s Nilsson Schmillson!
On another song they sampled Minnie Riperton’s Loving You which also fell fouls of legal powers that be so they had to replace with a soundalike.
