Not sure if this is a remix of The Conspiracy of One track that dropped in '89, or something completely different that lifted the same sample from Queen. This was spun a lot during the summer of '92. Here's the sample (3.1MB)

Thanks!

Yeah, I've been trying to track it down since I heard it in July 92 at a rave in Toronto. Dying to know what it is so I can find a good copy of it.

Just to clarify, the '89 track is the "Corporation Of One - The Real Life".

Your clip is certainly not the orig and it's not the recent Raven Maize re-hash either...damned if I know.

Someone posted this same track on discogs.com here (http://www.discogs.com/groups/topic/186199).

No one there seems to know what it is either. How can it be this elusive? A lot of people have heard it, but no one knows what it is! We all seem to agree is that it is not Corporation of One or Raven Maize.

Here is the full version (low bitrate). http://dl-client.getdropbox.com/u/61200/The%20Real%20Life%202.mp3

I posted this request on the backtotheoldskool forum a while back. No bites there either.

Why nobody knows what song this is ?? It was spooned at 1992. It contains Queen Samples, Is this the real life (Bohemian Rhapsody).
If anyone knows the Artis, Titel oder Label, let us know plz.

Thought i'd bring this post back to life.

Check this link out for more info.. dream giver redux | discography | covers | the real life by corporation of one (http://www.simpleminds.org/coo/discog/trl1.htm)

Its definitely NOT Corporation Of One - The Real Life (12") at Discogs (http://www.discogs.com/Corporation-Of-One-The-Real-Life/release/144776)

… so I’m thinking it could be "House Mix (International)" on this... Corporation Of One - The Real Life (12") at Discogs (http://www.discogs.com/Corporation-Of-One-The-Real-Life/release/127755)

Can anyone confirm?

Thanks

could be leroy west

I emailed a discog seller a clip and this is his reply...


our Leroy West record uses the same Queen sample and the same loop but the track is more minimalistic with percussion and some human beatbox (maybe George Kranz rommeltanz) vocal samples.
The driving synth bassline from your audio is missing.
I would say our record is more deep House / Hip House ... yours is more Club Tech House. It is surely an other version than the one you sent me.

:S

Nice try though. Thanks

Damn, we're getting so close, I can taste it. I'm just about ready to remake this track myself. Thanks for bumping this thread by the way!

it's too despairing :( (and i remain polite...)

i realize BenBru never checked what i suggested him ,one year ago:
http://www.tuneid.com/old-skool-classics-1987-1993/52087-25-euro-reward-each-id.html

sometimes i wonder if it's worth helping , it seems some people here have not confident :(

Interesting in the timing of this thread being activated again:

BenBru messaged me two days ago saying he has the vinyl, but refused to give me the title unless I gave him 20 euro for the record. I passed saying I wouldn't spend money on something I didn't know what I was getting. He still refused to provide any information, yet he was so desperate from us to find out what it was.

ComaProject and twiceage, thanks so much for the information. Sometimes it really is worth helping and I give you my gratitude. My 19 year search is over. BenBru, shame on you.

and
Future Tense - Unreality / Tension (Vinyl) at Discogs (http://www.discogs.com/Future-Tense-Unreality-Tension/release/418055)

Listen here: YouTube - Future Tense - Unreality (Instrumental) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLkXKzXyl2o)

Enjoy! ;)


Edit:
Doh!! Already ID'd. :| I didnt see Page 2. Doh!!!

Just FYI, all I did to to ID this was search Discogs for: 1992 "real life" techno which led me to the above track name. There was a youtube clip attached so played it and voila! Only took me 5 minutes to ID.
A good tip for anyone when attempting to ID tunes that have vocal samples. Doesn't always work, especially if there's no YouTube clip, but does work a lot of the time. :)

@ Edz: Indeed

@ DJ_Choonz: Thanks for the heads up regardless! Those keywords didn't come up with anything on discogs for the longest time because the release wasn't keyworded as completely as it could have been. Also, that youtube clip is only a day old. Our friend ComaProject upped it for us. :)

I am very pleased with all your efforts. This was a very long and old thread, but it has finally come to a close. :-)
