How does he get rid of the background sounds like the instruments from the original song

Esa said on Saturday, 29 August 2009:
Agreed, the riff at the beginning sounds more like it. I changed the timing to 0:00

LouisianaDude said on Saturday, 29 August 2009:
Sample actually starts at the very beginning...

swankay said on Saturday, 22 August 2009:
It sounds like he chopped it, sped it up a bit, and maybe lowered the pitch, then added some of his own drums over it.

djthom4688 said on Thursday, 20 August 2009:
my thing is how do he sample it. do he use the actual sample and switch up the pitch. or does he use his own drum kit and match up the sound.

swankay said on Thursday, 20 August 2009:
Yeah, it's in the beginning... 1:04 sounds like it, too, though.

freddy said on Wednesday, 19 August 2009:
I think it starts at the beginning as opposed to 1:04.
