The subject matter of this post is a little bit of a stretch, but the vocal sample of Yung Lean's "Ginseng Strip 2002" is yet to be identified/found. I wasn't really sure where to post this just because of how weird the situation is.
Ever since the song's release a couple of years, people (probably wanting to rap over the instrumental, though recent fan-made instrumentals have gotten really close to replicating the original ) have been looking for the source of the instrumental. Asking Yung Gud (the guy who made the instrumental) and Yung Lean in their respctive reddit AMAs haven't gotten any actual results. However, some reddit users have managed to reference the traditional singing of the Ainu people. One article mentioned a Ainu sample pack from loopmasters.com (https://www.reddit.com/r/sadboys/comments/2cmu94/sample_used_in_ginseng_strip/cjij8zp/). Another reddit article, despite being misleading, contained a link to the following video that does contain singing that sounds like the singing in the sample:
I might be the only person at the moment who's looking for the original sample, but do you guys have any ideas on finding the sample?
p.s. Please let me know if this article can stay. if it can, tell me where I could post it instead.
