Milk DX

I always thought that the melody that kicks in around 3 minutes sounded like someone rapping with a shit load of filters on it.

Well, after having my playlist on random, this song and a Beastie Boys song were on back to back and I noticed the "rap" portion of Milk DX sounds exactly like a muffled Mike D. The inflection and style are very similar. Then I noticed that the title Milk DX and the name Mike D are extremely similar, and I know ae love to mess around with words.

Maybe I'm just doing too many drugs though...

To me that sound always came across as being a female humming, it seems a little too melodic, with not enough syllables to be rapping. Have no idea, maybe it is a sampled rap.

To me it sounds like a "cuica", which is a brazillian instrument.

you could be right, it's got the same sorta whiny tone as mike d

i always thought it was a mix between Milk+ (the mescalin-milk of A Clockwork Orange) and DX as in the Yamaha DX-synths (the FM sound of those synths is all over the place).

Which track is the rap part coming from?

Everyone says its Milk Some kind of hiphop dude?

There is one Mike D who rapping and a rapper from brooklyn name Kirk "Milk dee" Robinson.

Wich one is they referring to?

It does sound more female, but that could be part of the effect.

Sounds dam good whatever it is, like a female humanoid being programmed to talk

pretty sure it's Milk D from Audio 2

Pretty sure it vocals from Milk Dee (of Audio Two) being chopped/screwed/filtered/etc. This probably isn't the track they sampled but gives you an idea of his cadence & flow...

That definitely sounds like the likely source... if not that particular song then a similar one by the same artist.

I understood Audio Two to be the main source as well back in the day... I just didn't see this thread to answer it.

Is there anyone that knows exactly what Milk D  track they sampled? 

i don’t know for sure but probably that one they started the Resident Advisor 2019 mix off with 

i think it was the first track at least

Damn, this is a blast from the past. Forgot I posted this...15 years ago lol

I still stand by it sounding like Mike D but Milk Dee makes even more sense

Mike D and Milk D actually kinda sound alike anyway but yeah I've always thought it was Milk D sampled for the track. Even the beat is vaguely similar to "Top Billin"

So they runned the track thru their Yamaha DX100 as it got speech synthesis?
