The Samples Used in Rayman 1-3

[@KingdomHeartsBrawler]

That horror sample really was that extra little bit of creepy on top of an already unsettling theme for the Tower of the Leptys. That place had "nope" written all over it.

[@Toudou1620]

I really hate going through this level because of that sample alone. Hearing the full bit was a crazy experience

[@Z_E_B_O]

9:20 Jesus christ, the tower of Leptys version already sounded spooky, but I didn't think they used an actual horror sound effect. I really thought of a creaky door.

[@JimmyCarter39thpresident]

I know this type of video usually doesn’t receive much attention, but I really appreciate it and hope you continue Keep up the great work!

[@JimmyCarter39thpresident]

Also I noticed Horror Movie Part 3 from Zero G: Skinned was used in Silent Hill 2 during the hospital chase sequence with Pyramid Head As well I think TENOR OST from Spectrisonic Symphony of Voices was used in the Silent Hill 3 song Maternal Heart

[@drifter402]

OK I'm getting a distorted reality CD RIGHT NOW. My mind is being blown right now hearing all these Rayman 2 sounds. Also love the visuals. You clearly really love these games. As do I.

[@JakobeOG]

OoT and majoras mask also used so many samples from the Distorted Reality packs

[@ReiAyanami1712]

I don’t know if it’s only me but with these sounds and cover arts it both scares and fascinates me at the same time

[@Haruka_VII]

Impressive how someone found these! Even Dance Mix of The Top of the World had samples, one of the coolest R2 songs!

[@Balltz_Maru_memes_Sanrio]

4:03 This sample can also be found as the taunt sound in Pizza Tower

[@ICUP321]

7:09 I think this sample is also used in Rayman Revolution, specifically in The Pirate Factory.

[@oscar.composer1839]

Is funny realize about samples used in videogames back in PS1 era, because you can now check what games applied the same ones 😂

[@monkeyman767]

3:02 You've answered something that's bugged me since I was a child. I always thought that bit in Top of the World also sounded like a track from one of the Spyro games even though the actual effect is edited a little, it seems they just both used "Tweak". Can't remember what Spyro track it was but I think it was in the 3rd game. This is a great vid, had no idea so many samples were used

[@ButtonMasherReal]

Spyro 2 - Skelos Badlands, about 30 seconds in.

[@FinleyGomez]

Would love to see you do a comprehensive video of all the samples used in the Earthbound / Mother games! They still fascinate me to this day how many samples they were able to fit on a single SNES cartridge!

[@CallMeElwis94]

Crazy how many different samples from different songs were used in Rayman games, let alone how well they fit the atmosphere in each place they were used. Great job on the research.

[@mrsaxophone4765]

They are not songs, but sample libraries. Artists could buy these CDs full of samples created by companies and use them to compose their own music.

[@Liks_on_youtube]

I think that 4:43 is also used in Zelda Wind Waker, in the wind temple.

[@StephanS]

That laugh at 0:49 originates from the Roland W30 sampler and is called something like "Boss"

[@LorenzoVDH1996]

Thank you so much for mentioning me (I'm LorenzoVDH), I really appreciate it. From 2014 to 2018 I obsessively went through so many old sample CDs and synthpatches and just put my findings in a post on RaymanPC, but this videoformat is much much better. Very interesting to see all these new findings too!

Rayman is the new Earthbound. Never knew Rayman 1-3 would have used samples from other places.

[@gilamasan]

Well, not quite. Rayman, like other games in that its samples were taken from Sample packs made for that sole purpose. Earthbound sampled from licensed songs.

​@@gilamasan Oh, mmm.. at least kinda close. Thanks for explaining.

[@Barakon]

I never knew that Rayman sampled until today holy fucking shit!

[@subwaymanYT]

Me neither

[@Letalight]

The composers took nice samples and upgraded them to anthology tracks. Also, all the FX (especially Rayman 2) can be found on many media. Awesome finds, thank you.

[@CaesarNeptuneStudios]

This is super cool! I remember finding a few samples for Rayman 3 and Rayman 2 in playlists on KZbin and the Rayman Pirate Community a while ago and this video is a great showcase on some of the best examples. I also noticed here in the comparison that many of the original samples were often changed for Rayman games like the tempo/speed and pitch especially for Rayman 3s soundtrack. Great job on this video the backgrounds fit perfectly with the track and I love the album art you included and that you had a comparison between sample vs Rayman soundtrack

[@AnimalMother98]

They don't make them like they used to. This mystical/wonderous sound is what the late 90's/early 2000's sounded like in my head.

[@boombapsword7907]

Your like whosampled but for video games, It's absolutely brilliant 😁👍🏽

[@gerpatoyutub]

The rayman music its incredible

[@SticksGazetteFan2005]

8:49 This was used in the daltons episode mind vs body it's the one where the daltons encountered a ghost.

[@matthewbuckley7757]

That flute sound was also used in Disney’s legend of Tarzan and Turok Rage wars, I also heard it in an episode of Justice League unlimited and Lion King 11/2

[@hibbiea8841]

5:48 "You Are The Weakest Link, Goodbye." *** Walk of shame plays

[@jessiebeck8891]

1:56 I think I've heard that one in Luigi's Mansion.

[@jessiebeck8891]

5:51 I've heard that in Titan A.E., Cyberchase, Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus, the list goes on.

[@gorilli09]

And the Warner Bros. Pictures logo

[@gabrielladavidson2938]

everything about this game is exceptional, and this video is great!

[@bc2l778]

The findings here are great, awesome video!

[@Ciopekwah]

incredible just how many soundtracks these early sample CDs shaped, from rayman to silent hill :0 especially the spectrasonics ones. i guess these sample CDs were the kontakt libraries of the 90s xD

[@MrLimbo-lj9hc]

3:02 this sample is also in Skelos Badlands from Spyro 2 Ripto's Rage

[@subwaymanYT]

That's what I was thinking

[@doko3000]

If this video were food, I'd be devouring it. Thanks a lot for this, Rayman 1 was such a highlight in my childhood -- imagine discovering this game when you were 7 years old.

[@user199x]

I recognize even more unmentioned samples within these small clips of the ost

[@doko3000]

At 01:48 that Spectrasonics Liquid Grooves - SNT VC WHL sample is also in the soundtrack for Tenchu 2 in track 04 Shiren (Tora Eno Rasetsu). At 07:28 that Best Service Orchestral Colours A# Race sample is also in the soundtrack for Mutant Penguins (MS-DOS, 1996) in track 07 (CD track order).

[@stressrepellentmachine]

this fucking ROCKS! the rayman soundtracks were always so delightfully twisted and surreal. so fucking glad to finally have a vid of them

[@Barakon]

They should have used these in Captain Laserhawk to be honest.

[@DarkS480]

Good work dude ! I did not expect to discover new samples in 2022 ! :o

[@Casketkrusher_]

10:44 is also used in the song No One by Fear Factory.

[@fabiovercelli4962]

8:46 that sample is also used in the forset temple theme of twilight princess!

[@Casketkrusher_]

4:26 is also used in Kingsleys Adventure.

[@Holgast]

Incredible how many of these I recognised instantly

[@PadouxStudio]

instant sub for that amount of work to create such quality video

[@ViperousVT]

Great job thanks for uploading now I know where these sample tracks came from because when I was a kid in 2005 I always felt like I heard some of these tracks from somewhere.

[@Errol246]

That was really interesting. I didn't even know I needed this video in my life.

[@DynastyUK]

I love this series of videos you're creating! :D I hope there will be more to come. Subbed :D

[@pieofchart]

9:48 This was used in Vib Ribbon and (I believe) NiGHTS into Dreams

[@Pokaroquai]

Oh man I want a Vib Ribbon and Rayman crossover

[@HoryBP1]

Just heard Torcnein talk about that horror sample in Tower of Leptys. He told not to go and look for it. Well, he was right...

[@ortiwoodgaming9686]

Great work man love it

[@shrimpy420]

The sample at 1:17 is also used in a Breaking Bad OST song called "murder"

[@imn0trelevant290]

It always blows my mind that shows are still using sample packs from the 90's. I enjoy spotting them in modern shows. I wonder if it's cheaper to use old sample packs somehow.

[@DarkS480]

Wow ! Nice !

[@charmue5064]

7:28 this first sample is used for a game studio or anime studio i forget but for the life of me its not coming to mind and its driving me crazy

[@Barakon]

1:53 checkpoint 1

[@SnevilGrey]

4:03 THAT'S THE PEPPINO TAUNT

[@birdsniffingthefloor]

Amazing research work! Thank you for uploading this.

[@КонстантинФёдоров-п9ч]

here comes the ghost sample from zero-g: cuckooland asylum is also heard in the song EVENT : EXCUSE ME? from Sonic Heroes

[@yungstigmatamanne]

if a game ost doesn’t have shit from sample cds in it then fuck it fr, also love the cd case visuals in this

[@VjRoboZ]

Amazing!

[@lamortx]

Wow!! Great job! Thank you mister, I'm subscribing right now :D

[@Casketkrusher_]

3:04 Stewwart Copeland did use the same sample for Spyro 2.

[@sethbingo]

Awesome video, I seriously wonder how you found all these samples!

[@cindyharry1201]

1 harp used from spongebob game frenzy 9:49

[@acajoufendu2786]

Amazing content !!

[@Liks_on_youtube]

Oh cool vidéo, I love these type of videos !

[@КонстантинФёдоров-п9ч]

and also echo flute 9.1 sample from sonic foundry: voices of native america sounds in Forest Temple theme from The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess

[@pitufo9221]

9:35 So funkyyyy

[@paer76]

The first one is also used in driver 2

[@zerg47]

the Yeah at 00:50 is also in a Wipeout 1 track

[@Willllow]

4:44 sounds like a track from Revolution but I can't place it. Globox's House I think

[@cupriferouscatalyst3708]

Thank you, I love this type of stuff! It's so interesting. Btw, does anyone know what that noise is that starts at 9:00? It sounds kind of like a water hose or radio static, but as a kid I thought it was a creature making that noise which was terrifying because the whole point of that level is to look for invisible objects, and there were no regular enemies around... 😱

[@ReiAyanami1712]

I would love to see Rayman Arena/M samples

[@rhyuu-bc8vl]

This is really cool

[@thesupernintendophile7404]

Isn't there a drum sample from somewhere that was used in the Grolgoth battle theme? Because it's a drum sample I also recognise from the arcade version of Emotionless Passion from Tekken 2.

[@armeno1852]

Does anyone know where I could find the full audio for "Horror Movie Part 3" from 9:20? Can't seem to source it anywhere

[@goku1saiyan150]

Hey can you do one for Spyro 2 cause I know they also used some Spectrasonics’s samples too

[@asileitorgamer5598]

*Lots of 'em

You know the flute from Polokus' theme in Rayman 2?

[@razputinshow212]

Oh My God ! All of my life was a lie !!

[@klausheller6699]

Those at 1:45 are both used in Tenchu 2

[@msicouldntthinkofafunnynam4770]

I dunno if it's possible but could you maybe do one for Serious Sam the First and Second Encounter???

[@MKTDHD]

Thank you

[@eaten_toaster]

how about the music in background of the Candy Chateau in rayman 1?

[@belosneshkaaaa]

1:49 i cant find that track anywhere mannnnnnn

[@BootlegGremlin]

i really needed this. do you have any idea where i can get the samples in the vid? i really wanna get them but i can't seem to find them.

[@FrothingFanboy]

A lot of these samples are missing from the Nintendo 64 version of Rayman 2...and I personally prefer that. The original* soundtrack sounds too busy, while the 64 version has stronger central melodies. *In Europe, the Nintendo 64 version actually released first. :P

[@johnp4887]

Do Luigis Mansion or another atmospheric creepy video game

I Can't see it cause of the quality

Do ratchet and clank samples

[@bubblewiz120]

Hello, gilamasan! What are those covers from this video? Could you make another of your videos called "The Samples Used in Sonic Games"?

[@gilamasan]

There are quite a lot of known samples, so I could do that.

[@zarodgaming1844]

It's not that using samples is bad. It's that at least me I revered the composers for coming up with such good sound design and melodies ... when instead it was someone else xD

[@Barakon]

Can I get ALL OF THE SAMPLES?

[@SneedFeedAndSeed]

I always though the Yeah was Rayman's voice

[@BenKirb]

3:27 - WRONG IMAGE!

[@gilamasan]

What should I have used?

[@asileitorgamer5598]

I think it's still ok, like, wasn't this the place where you first encounter shells?
