| |
| |smsnotes1=[[Alan Wilder]] confirmed the origin of this vocal sample in response to a fan question during a Q&A on {{Shunt}}, the official [[Recoil]] project site:
| |
| <blockquote>
| |
| '''Q''': In the beginning of "Fly On The Windscreen" (the version on ''[[Black Celebration (album)|Black Celebration]]''), there is a sample of someone talking. It sounds like it could be from radio or television but I have no clue what the person is saying and it bugs the shit out of me. I ran it by the ''Shunt'' punks and nobody seemed to know. Do you remember what it is?
| |
| | |
| '''A''': 'Over and done with' courtesy of [[Daniel Miller]] if memory serves correct."<ref name="shuntBC">Source: [http://oldsite.recoil.co.uk/forum/qa/dmblack.htm SHUNT : ARCHIVES : DEPECHE MODE : BLACK CELEBRATION]</ref></blockquote>

| |
| |smsample1=Guitar-like pluck
| |
| |smsnotes1=A brief guitar-like sound reminiscent of a guitar or processed piano sample is layered with a bass part to form the bass sound heard throughout the song. Notably, this sample is also used to play a four note sequence as a fill sporadically throughout {{S|But Not Tonight|U}}.

| |
| |ssource1='''The Chanters - 'She Wants To Mambo'''' - 1954<br><small>(Re-release by Jazzman Records in 2014)</small>
| |
| |sstatus1=Officially confirmed
| |
| |snotes1=The second feminine moan in "She Wants To Mambo" is sampled and played in a descending two note passage with EQ for added top-end during the chorus sections of {{s|A Question Of Time|U}}. {{MLG}} confirmed the use of the sample in the August 1986 issue of ''Electronics & Music Maker'':
| |
| | |
| <blockquote>It's not that audible, though. It's a sample from a record called "She Wants to Mambo", an old doo-wop disc. At the end of each verse, the woman who sings sort of moans. We sampled this moan and played it up a few notes, which made it sound like a girl moaning. We used it on the chorus section of "A Question of Time"."<ref>Source: [http://www.muzines.co.uk/articles/modes-of-operation/1937 Muzines.co.uk : Articles : Modes Of Operation (''Electronics & Music Maker'', August 1986)]</ref></blockquote>
| |
| | |
| In addition to its use in the chorus sections, the sample is also used as a unique "Wha-, wha-, wha-" vocal-like hit that is played repetitively on every step and half step following the percussion fill during the intro and throughout the song's outro. Rather than playing out from start to finish as it does during the chorus sections, the sample is played with a fast decay five notes down from its root key and detuned slightly to form the unique rhythmic hit.

| |
| <blockquote>"[...] Then there’s the mandolin-like part on "Here Is The House". That was an acoustic guitar sampled twice — once on a down-stroke and once on an upstroke. We used them on alternate notes, so every other note was a downstroke and all the in-between notes were up-strokes. It sounded very funny — almost like a real player."<ref name="HITH"></ref>

| |
| |smsample2=Vibraphone-like percussive bell
| |
| |smsnotes2=A vibraphone-like percussive bell element is employed during the latter half of each verse section, utilising a 1/4 delay to achieve a hypnotic "bouncing" effect. This distinctive sound would also see use in several other [[Depeche Mode]] songs produced at or around the same time, including "Shake The Disease" and "It Doesn't Matter Two".
| |
| |smsample3=Resonant bell sample
| |
| |smsnotes3=A rich, resonant bell sample is layered with a choral-esque part to create a highly-textured counter melody as heard in its chorus sections. This bell sample would later be used in the introduction of "[[Strangelove]]", "[[Nothing]]", and the [[Recoil]] instrumental {{s|Grain}}.
| |
| |smsample4=Guitar-like pluck
| |
| |smsnotes4=A brief "plucked" guitar-like sound plays a tight four note sequence with an immediate Release as a fill sporadically throughout 'But Not Tonight'. This sample is also used in chorus with a bass part to form the bassline of "A Question Of Time".
| |
| |smsample5=Hi-hats (open and closed)
| |
| |smsnotes5=A sequenced 4/4 hi-hat rhythm comprised of one closed and one open hi-hat is employed throughout the song. These hi-hat parts are also used in several other songs produced at or around the same time, including "Here Is The House" and "Shake The Disease".
