This tune will probably ring a few bells. Even if the name doesn’t look familiar, it’s been on a couple of big jungle comps over the years, including several on major labels . “Kan U Feel It” actually started out on a release by Dancemaster, one member of Skool of Hard Knocks (though it had engineering credits for the other main member). On that EP, it was actually a B side to the tune “Don’t U Feel It” , another wicked track I’ll probably post here some day. “Kan U Feel It” 93 had the main hook samples already in place :”can you feel it” from Cheryl Lynn “Encore” combined with the guitar sample from The JB’s “Giving Up Food For Funk” (thanks to a reader for spotting these, I was drawing a blank). However, the drums were pretty skittery and choppy, definitely cool sounding but not the most hard-hitting. Hence, the 94 version kept the main hook but punched up the drums quite a bit.
Skool of Hard Knocks – Kan U Feel It
Hi. The Sample is not the same as in “Junglist”. The one in Junglist is by The Meters “Just kissed my baby”. This one is by the J.B.’s “Givin’ Up Food For Funk”. The “Can you feel it” bit is from Cheryl Lynn’s “Encore”.
awesome, thanks for the heads up… I’ll correct the entry right now. Where’s the “can you feel it” in Cheryl Lynn Encore? I checked the track on youtube but didn’t hear it… pretty embarrassed that I didn’t know that JB’s one though!
Woops.. my bad! “Encore” has the famous “Wohhh……Alright?!” sample at the end (isn’t in the videos). Try searching for an MP3. I found it on a pretty recent CD compilation.
The “Can you feel it” sample is from a Live Version of the Jacksons “Can you feel it)

(Sounds shit because of the tape flutter! But it’s the one used by Fingers Inc.)
ah cool.. any idea about the hiphop one, the “can you feel it… nothing can save ya”?
I think I remember the “nothing can save ya” part being used in MC Duke “I’m Riffin”, but no sourced from there just a vocal snippet used alongside Duke’s original vocals..
Nah, I think it’s Biz Markie “Vapors”

My HipHop knowledge is not as good as my funk and soul… but I’m pretty sure this is the one you’re looking for.
yeah that’s the one… damn I knew that Biz Markie song too just couldn’t place the sample!
“can you feel it” is from a jackson 5 concert. 34 seconds

Can you upload the 1995 remix of this, please?
any ideas on another track played in 95/96 with the same JB sample along with a b line similar to Dj Die’s remix of windows??
