A reader of Pigeons and Planes may have identified the sample at use towards the end of the new track that Kanye West premiered on (almost) 66 buildings andSaturday Night Live this past weekend.

The music? A Hungarian band called Omega, who released ”Gyöngyhajú Lány” (translated as The Girl with Pearly Hair—don't ask us) in 1969. The band was one of Hungary's biggest; according to the reader who sent the information in, they were similar to his "father’s and grandparents’ Beatles.”

Check Omega above, and listen to that section of "New Slaves" at the three minute mark below.
