samples used in 2022 & 2021 kpop songs

basically what the title says
intro: love options - bestie
outro: deep blue eyes - girls next door
bg video: woowa - dia (teaser)
please don't reupload/remake this video using the audio from my video with or without credit. it took me a really long time to compile these samples. also all the samples are sped up/pitched up to a very odd number so they are unusable now lol support the original artists
if you find a mistake in this video or find a sample that is not in this video and want it to be featured in the next video, please tell me in the comments!

What I really like about the sample used in both Venom and Dice is that the length, key, and rhythm was altered for both songs, so while we can tell by paying attention that it’s the same sample, it’s utilized in a unique way in each song & also gives a different vibe. Stray Kids used it to give a creepy, crawling feeling, and NMIXX used it to have a jaunty, fun beat Also, in a very recent episode of Chan’s Room (I wanna say ep.188?) Bang Chan of Stray Kids decided to make a lo-fi track for fun on live, and as he was scrolling through samples, he played the guitar riff from the intro of Lonely Boy by TXT. the chat just started going, “ayyyy Lonely Boy!!” which was fun😂

[@nyunation]

omg can i have a link to watch the chan video?

I could tell the very first time I heard Dice that it was the same sample because that sound gives me anxiety.

[@YanYanYamYam]

My music production teacher always tells us that it's ok to use samples if you cannot think of a beat or cannot make a certain sound like a lead, drum pattern, or a fill etc. but if you do use samples, always edit them in anyway (like rearranging notes, or adjusting the pitch, tempo and frequencies) to showcase your own style and also so you have less of a risk being accused of plagiarising another song with the same unedited sample, especially if a main lead or whatever used as a main melody for a chorus for example. Hearing the same unedited sample in multiple songs is repetitive and loses a song's individuality and can make listening to certain songs a bit dull and boring (not the case for everyone). It's possible to create a song solely with samples and you can get amazing results from that, but it just doesn't show a producer's true, personal ability to produce music from scratch and again, the use of samples will eventually bore a listener at some point if they keep on hearing the same samples in multiple songs. I clicked on this video because I like to discover the little details in producing songs like how producers incorporate samples in music. It's interesting to see the conflicting views on the use of samples in Kpop in the comments of a lot of these videos I've watched, but my take on this is that you can use samples because they're out there for a reason because they might help producers create sounds they might not know how to create but want to use in their own songs, and the samples also help inspire things such as drops or melodies for certain parts a producer might be stuck with creating. I also think my teacher's advice is important to take note of if you wanna use samples in your own songs (The beginning of the comment) :)

[@peonylarkspur645]

[@ElfainDeLeon]

KSHMR is huge on Splice & I assume he also makes a lot of bank on his other selling platforms. Basically he's gonna get "paid" each time someone downloads his samples, but he won't get royalties.

@@Jauhelihakeitto Is Attention composed of just samples. Not being skeptical, just curious. There's two that I hear and know of, although it could just be one dramatically altered sample: "You make me feel good" that continues throughout the pre-chorus, and then is pitch shifted and chopped for the chorus itself, and I suspect that the "marching band vocalization" heard in the beginning is a sample too. But everything else strikes me as original.

[@serixskylark]

The thing about samples is that they exist to be used for the sole purpose of adding to a song, so I don’t know why people get so disappointed when they find out something is a sample. If it’s used in too many songs sure, but a lot of the time it just adds to it and I think it’s neat.

[@M_Carter_]

call me old fashioned but i'm not a fan of how many of these tracks are built upon extensive use of almost entirely unmodified samples - it actually explains why wa da da by kep1er had this overtly homogenised, polished sound that i couldn't quite put my finger on. back in the day, producers would painstakingly craft their own drum loops, fills, bass rhythms, synth patches, etc. from scratch... and if they did use a sample, it'd be something very minor or extensively filtered/reversed/cut up/reshaped, or otherwise completely unrecognisable from the original. obviously it's not all bad or uninspired, and i guess that if you're doing this for a living you're operating within certain time constraints where these splice sample banks would help immensely. but man, if you're someone on teddy's level and you're throwing together major title tracks primarily using those KSHMR sample packs... i frankly think that's a bit lazy

[@drewpreston6478]

Movies, music, and game companies are all run by businessmen and marketers. It's a miracle that any creativity and/or passion filters down through the hundreds of people and into the final product.

[@shineefive]

i agree. i think its cool to an extent that so many songs can use one sample and sound different but it makes me feel like all songs have an empty feeling now? i realise why fearless sounded empty to me bc its literally just a kick beat and that sample

[@ElfainDeLeon]

"producers would painstakingly craft their own drum loops, fills, bass rhythms, synth patches, etc. from scratch..." What period of music are we talking about? Are we talking about back before the 1980s? Because the vast majority of the pieces after have been incredibly derivative of already existing material. The soul/funk craze in the 80s quite literally sampled drum breaks with little to no changes. Taking unmodified samples is nothing new and there's nothing wrong with using an unmodified sample if it's in a sample pack. That's what it's for. In the 90s, 2000s and 2010s there were already huge waves of sample packs, the difference was you'd have to purchase those with money instead of heading over to an audio library like splice. Most of music is incredibly derivative and nearly nothing in the history of music has ever been new. Idk why you'd want someone to cut up a sample if it doesn't need to be cut up. You can find most synth patches of the songs popular in the 90s and 2000s on most synthesizers of the time with minimal changes. Using KSHMR or other sample packs can be incredibly helpful especially for experimenting with different cultures, like Teddy did with the Lalisa track. If Teddy finds a loop of Latin American Percussion attractive, I'm not gonna expect him to look into all latin american genres to try and replicate it. That's the cool thing about Splice, different cultures and different blends of things can be made by most people. The only difference between now and then is that sampling is more accessible now, and that's a good thing.

[@bluvillage]

you raise a good point. i do believe kpop producers use samples so often is because they need to whip up a new album every 3-6 months. and/or they don't want to pay people to actually play the instruments or provide vocal chops. all in all it's just to save money and time

[@jihancafe]

i also noticed that the vocal sample in the beginning of fire by EXID is in one of the kshmr sample packs!

[@zomikki]

oh my god butter by bts and aloha by pristin both use the same sample for the beginning of both songs! thats so cool!!
