maybe a coincidence, even if not, cool that he got inspiration from something like that, and made a timeless classic out of it

That Arp is a sample from CM disc, I've heard it and couldnt believe it! Same with Cockney Violin, thats in sum reason refill and wasnt touched in the slightest!

Not that it changes anything but the arp's a synth not a sample, I know it weren't based on nothing else because I asked him to make me a grimey dubstep tune and bang some gunshots in there. Same night he played me what we now know as request line down the phone.

I mean the Arp sound within the tune is a sample which I've heard on a computer music disc! Its an arp pattern which can only come from a synth but its been recorded to audio...! Maybe someones sampled his track and added it to the CM sample pack but trust me, that tune was rammed in my head from 3rd bass days bruva and the only reason I know its on there is cos I couldn't believe it myself!

to OP -
The fact you spotted the possible inspiration from the score of Catch Me If You Can is pretty impressive and deserves a big up!

Bro, I'm telling you it never came from a cm disc because I know the vst it came from and have seen the project file, i was in the studio everyday with him them days, skream was shiting out arps like that for fun....
Dig out your cm cd, it might sound very similar but it isn't the source.

The arp sound was form a vst called Junglist,the bass was from the ts404, the plinky sounds and the last melody were from absynth 1.3,the falling sub sound from the intro were from some samples i got off cyrus and the rise's were from the 3xOSC....
I wasnt inspired by anything else other than finding the arp mode in FL and being able to set scales to it.....
Anything else you'd like to know? lol
