Guess That Videogame Sample Vol 1!
 by Justice on 02.14.2008      8 comments




As we all know, many songs today use samples from video games, so this is the first in a series of howevermany.

Here we have "Ryders" by Saigon & Memphis Bleek.



OK so the above video sampled from Bon Jovi's Runaway as pointed out by Shipero and Murder 64 but don't both tunes remind you of a videogame?

If you don't recognise the sample from the following bonus song, then you need help.

BONUS VIDEO!

"Super Brooklyn", by Smif N Wessun aka the Cocoa Brothers.

That last video was actually really good. Except.. the thumbs up from the governator is kind of unsettling.

I think the first song's sample is "Runaway" by Bon Jovi.

The first one is Bon Jovi, or pretty close. The second is duh!

Shipero we're talking about video games here.
Bon Jovi shares no relation with videogames!

Yes, that's why I'm confused as to why you're calling it videogame music. So unless he had a game like Journey did I'm afraid you lost me.

Ok case in point, you guys taught me something I had forgotten but still, doesn't Bon Jovi's Runaway sound quite like the menu music of the original Megaman?

I knew it was Megaman. The pew pew gave it away.

It is Megaman, and Bon Jovi! Never noticed the similarities.
