Sampling wasn't a popular thing in Spanish-sung music until Charly García's Clics Modernos, released in 1983. The hit song 'No me dejan salir' (they won't let me go) features at least three different James Brown samples (who had been in jail 'without reason, just because he was black', as he said), added to the rythm chain of the Roland 808 he had. The song, while dance-able and cheerful in its sound, was a protest against the martial law that the dictatorship in his country, Argentina, had held until that year. The whole album is a masterpiece for Latin culture, with some serious thought provoking songs, even if they don't initially sound like that. It was also a revelation that Charly, who was a very well acclaimed prog and classical-influenced musician in Spanish rock, who often criticized autoritarism, tried doing something different (dance-able music) in such dark times.

I used to have a keychain that had a speaker and 5 buttons on it, each of which activated a different sound effect when pressed. One of those sounds was the "bombs away" descending gliss sound, which is scattered throughout the Clandestino album... I mean the exact same sound, not a similar sound.

I found a few more examples of songs that certainly interpolate or at least are influenced by older songs. The 2015 hit “Downtown” by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis has a synthesizer riff between two octaves of the same note, very similar to the longer version of “The Safety Dance” by Men Without Hats. Also, the current US top 40 hit “Please Please Please” by Sabrina Carpenter, seems to have a similar rhythm guitar riff and/or beat in some parts to the Pink Floyd song “Another Brick in the Wall Part II,” though the chord progression and bass line is different. Not sure if either of these have been mentioned yet.

Coldplay sampling a line from Back to the Future is a really interesting example of sampling. There's a band called Agalloch, in their album "The White" they took samples from The Wicker Man and used them in three songs, and if I remember correctly, they also introduced a sample from The Seventh Seal in another song in their album "The Mantle". AND now that I remember, also the song Sinners Bleed samples the laughter scene from the film The Mummy from 1932.

I can think of a couple of other examples of hip hop sampling '70s prog besides Kanye using King Crimson. The producer Madlib in particular seems to have been fond of Gentle Giant, because the beat from "Strange Ways" from Madvillainy (with MF Doom) is largely built from a sample of Gentle Giant's "Funny Ways", and he also used a sample from GG's "The Boys in the Band" in his remix of "Get By" by Talib Kweli. On a completely different end of the spectrum, the beat from "Known For It" by the abrasive experimental hip hop group Death Grips is based around a sample from "De Futura" by the French avant-prog group Magma. Death Grips drummer Zach Hill is on record as a huge fan of Magma drummer/frontman Christian Vander.
