APACHE

[rosiew]

Morning all
Can anyone tell me who the artist is that is doing the mixed version of Apache on the William Hill's advert. Ta in advance x

[Sooper]

As far as i can tell (without a link!) that you are referring to the song "A bit patchy" by Switch which uses the superb Michael Viner's Incredible Bongo Band sample of Apache?
Link to Switch song -

Hi Sooper
Sorry, i should have been more descriptive in my question, its Apache by The Shadows. William Hill's betting advert has it playing in the background but it's a re-mix of the music

[Sooper]

Hmmm so its not the music from this William Hill advert then?

Starts around 0:59 seconds in.

I dont think thats it unless William Hill have two adverts running that both use different versions/mixes of Apache? If that William Hill advert i have posted is the correct one then the music used is "A Bit Patchy" by Switch which samples the original break etc from The Incredible Bongo Band's "Apache" and not the Shadows.

Hi Sooper,
That's the one. It's a shame that it's not all instrumental. Thanks soo much for your help on this one x

[rosiew]

Just having a look on Spotify and found the instrumental version by Switch, it's now on my playlist.
Thanks again Sooper.

No probs, glad to be able to help! If you do like that i would certainly check out The Incredible Bongo Band's original version called Apache which is one of the most smapled songs ever with a wonderful drum/bongo break in it!

"Sampled" Doh!
