[quote quote="djtopcat":1buojdmd]Through the wire’s drums are just chopped beats on an MPC I think it’s Isaac Hayes-The breakthrough drums

I don’t wanna know sampled the beat from EPMD’s You’re a customer and they originally sampled them from an obscure 70’s country rock record that has a cover with a dude laying down on grass with a weed in his mouth I forget the name. I’ve only seen a couple copies in 15 years.[/quote:1buojdmd]

How in a squillion years would you know that????
U are truly the tune ID uber god!

Because the original drum break is different Sermon layered another kick over the orig beat and trust me the beat Diddy used is You’re a Customer. There’s a tiny 2 second place where the bassline drops out and it’s just drums I’ve used it on many of my remixes over the years so have other producers and remixers
FYI I used to be a serious beathead back in the day I had to have all of the rock records with open drum breaks I’ve sold rare rock breaks to Kenny Dope,Pete Rock,Ju Ju from the Beatnuts
too many to mention trust me I know my shi*t kid 😉

Really? Which track?

Are we any further forward with finding out these breaks?

Or are you happy with the answers provided by djtopcat?

EPMD and Mario Winans beat is Alexander Harvey obscure country album on Kama Sutra called "Preshus Child", I don’t think it’s "The Sensational" Alex Harvey but I could be wrong. I believe the track was "Tulsa Turnaround" which usually starts with drums (Kenny Rogers)
