I’m looking for some assistance identifying a classical piano piece that is often used in modern music, especially electronica. The most mainstream song I’m aware of that samples the melody is Immortal Technique’s Dance with the Devil, found on his album Revolutionary Vol. 1 If anyone can help me identify the piano track I would greatly appreciate it, and if you’re interested in a very skilled conscious mc, be sure to check out immortal. thanks. ---

Its prominent in electronica, but electronica is not prominent 🙂 Anyone listen to Anabolic Frolic HHC or Jungle D&B ? ---

I totally recnognize it. I think it’s a classical piece, because it’s been used in several movies and commercials. ---

It’s not a classical piece. It’s Francis Lai’s “Theme from Love Story” ---

Ok, so it’s a piano instrumental from a film that sounds like Liszt. Go fuck yourself. ---

I just realized that my sarcasm was probably totally not translating. I didn’t mean it _that_ way. 🙂 ---

Wow, not only did I get to confirm the track, but I found a fellow electronica patron. The size and breadth of this board continually amaze me. The first person to reply to one of my posts was a David Mamet fan picked up on my user\_name (obscure children’s play about pandas in space). Thank you. ---
