[Fully Lost] Unknown instrumental sample 1980s or 2010s
On June 4, 2023, a snippet of a jazz like instrumental was uploaded to WatZatSong by user “HUnimport”. In the sample description and comments, they clarified that they were asking for the sample used in the song "Clear Sky" by Knowsum, since Knowsum commonly uses samples in his tracks and often pitches them Knowsum likely wasn't the creator of the sample. The snippet was taken from another song by the artist Lunaht_, called "A Moment Without You" which uses the exact same sample as Clear Sky. But since "A Moment Without You" was made over a year after "Clear Sky" meaning it cannot be the origin of the sample either.
The sample wouldn’t receive significant attention until the channel Ford Focus reposted it to YouTube on May 12, 2024, under the title "Lost song (No name)". This upload of the snippet would become popular, gaining over 200,000 views, in large part due to people being recommended the video, and the mid-2024 surge of popular interest in lostwave after Ulterior Motives was found. Not much information was discovered about the sample besides some people suggesting that it could have originated from the 80s or early 2000s. Knowsum was also contacted by people asking about the sample’s origin but didn’t respond back. Lunaht\_ would also be contacted and mentioned that they were suspended and couldn’t see their watch history but said if they are remembering correctly the sample probably came from some obscure city pop channel. Considering AMWY released in 2021, the video upload (if the channel is still around) was from before that. Likely 2020 or more earlier. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
