The Good, The Bad, and The Funky (TPC Sample Challenge #153)

This is my thirty-eighth entry in The Producers Corner "sample challenge", where everyone is given the same source music from which to sample, and the results are diverse and entertaining. The source this week was Ennio Morricone's 1971 soundtrack for the Sergio Leone spaghetti western "Giù La Testa" (a.k.a. "Duck, You Sucker!" or "A Fistful Of Dynamite"). As the Head2Head sample challenge is still running, I didn't turn my mind to this until I was sure I was satisfied with the H2H entry; and then looking through this I decided to keep things simple and build off of one main filtered loop. ...I then absolutely did NOT keep it simple; using about ten different samples and snippets from the source, layering in a couple of additional loops and vocal samples, then adding my own drum programming and vinyl filters to produce a smooth swingy bit of melancholy morriconia. I hope you enjoy the final product, and please everyone stay safe and healthy out there!!! * This won first place!!! Wow, thanks to António Megård Piteira and the rest of the TPC family!
