The place for musicians to share their knowledge and ideas about music and remixing, and to post WIP snippets and feedback. Also suggest tunes for remixing, here.
I was going to start on an idea I had for a remix that I wanted to sound like KLF's "What Time Is Love", however I've been unable to find the right sounds for it.
So I'm wondering if anyone (with a keen ear or whatever) have any clue what gear they might've used for that song. Just so I have some pointers as too where to look for sounds.
I hate it when my creativity get's shot down due to lack of raw material.

Kwed is your man for this one, definitely. If anyone knows his KLF, he does.

Mainly you'll need the 3 magic numbers - 303, 808, 909.
And of course samples of just about anything you can get your hands on - no matter what the record company/original artist have to say (a pox on Abba for being responsible for the "1987" album being withdrawn )
And get all of the "Simon Harris Break Beats & Scratches" volumes on vinyl (though I think some or all may be available on cd if you can find them in used cd stores)
