    Both Snap's "The Power" and PPK's "Resurrection" seem to sample voices from Russian space missions. Are they genuine and, if so, which missions are we hearing in these pop songs?

    Question #41322. Asked by gmackematix.

    Hijakr

    Yuri Gagarin's first flight into space by a human being.

    Both of them, Hijakr? Any sources to back this up?

    Resurrection, pure crystal trance sound turned out to be PPK’s Resurrection. Oakenfold’s been playing a raw version; in single PPK included sample from Russian movie Sibiriada and voice of Russian cosmonauts. The song is devoted to the brave Soviet cosmonauts and everyone, who’s planning to travel/is traveling in space. It has great cosmic space sound and is just plain beautiful.

    The first two minutes of "Resurrection" are eminently danceable, if not remarkable. Without warning, the beat disappears, replaced by the eerie sounds of old Russian cosmonaut films.

    From Dave Souers: PPK have a song called "Resurrection" that features a sample of the song that was broadcast to Yuri as he flew over Russia!

    PPK describe their style as "Russian Trance." Mixing atmospheric harmonies and mid-tempo beats with mystical sounds and vocals, they create a sound that is unlike any other. Their hit single "Resurection," commemorates men's first trip into space, and features the theme from internationally acclaimed 1979's movie Sibiriada and a sampled voice of Yuri Gagarin.
