Classical musicians and classical music enthusiasts, what's your opinion on kpop sampling classical music?
There is several title that come to me when I think of this
Blackpink's Shutdown with Paganini's La Campanelle
Red Velvet's Feel my rythm with Bach's Air on G string
Billlie's Secret no more with Tchaikowsky's Swan lake
iii's forbidden midnight with Grieg's In the Hall of the mountain king
I-dle's Nxde with Bizet (Carmen) La Habanera
Chess by Dahyun and Itzy's Snowy both sampling Fur Elise by Beethoven
Ateez Wonderland with New World Symphony (Dvorak)
Billies every body got a secret, marionette by red velvet with Tchaikowsky' Sugar Plum fairy
Taemin with Bones and Vixx's Fantasy sampling Monlight sonata by Beethoven
Kiss of life's Maestro of my heart with Paganini's Caprice 24
Brahms’ Hungarian Dance No.4 & Oneus’ Baila Conmigo
Taemin's Advice with Bach's invention n13
Purple Kiss pretty psycho with Beethoven's Stmohony n5
Cheeky by EL7Z UP sampling Borofins polovstian dances
Etc, you get the idea.
Is there time where you feel it was badly introduced? Sometimes where it works completely? Your overall opinion with Kpop using Classical samples more often than other music industries ?
I personally like when I hear a koop song and I recognise a classical sample. I fond it fun, quite like a game.
I really like when the sample is completely integrated with the Melody (for example Billlie,so Secret no more with Swans lake, is amazing, I love how the lalalala in the chorus goes with Tchaikowskys theme). Sometimes I think the sample doesn't necessarily fit the music, as in nothing in the rest of the melody and instrumental is linked to the sample.
Also I heard BEcause by Dreamcatcher is a sample of Fur Elise ? I can't hear it tho, if someone has a timestamps I'd be interested in it.
