Stumbling upon this song in search of the sample used on MF DOOM\u2019s \u201cOne Beer,\u201d I cannot get this addicting tune out of my head. I\u2019ve now listened to the rest of Troupeau Bleu, the album the song is off of, and it is really incredible. I don\u2019t know if my attention would have ever been brought to 1970s French jazz funk artists, but that\u2019s one of the great parts about sampling: crate diggers bringing obscure artists to light.<\/p>\n
\u201cHuit Octobre 1971\u201d has also been sampled by Jaylib (\u201cNo Games\u201d), Wiz Khalifa (\u201cVisions\u201d) Tyler, the Creator (\u201cOdd Toddlers\u201d), among other artists. Other songs from Troupeau Bleu have been sampled by artists like Captain Murphy, Mellowhype and Rick Ross.<\/p>\n
