...that like...weird distorted ringing sound in alot of rap songs. Mainly West Coast stuff? Its in alot of Dr. Dre stuff.
The only specific example I can think of right now (at like 1:38):
Is it just...that weird ringing sound?

It's a 16-track studio application executed with velvet-slide-pad, on pitch-bend effect (with the attack set to low on strike) and a post mix-down of phazer-surge parameters. The dec-mhz was gauged in old analogue, originally, and looped on DAT before the advent of sophisticated digital processing .... It's unique manual technique, the "three-finger, two-hand jiggle", was developed for keyboard on the Yamaha synth, or arguably in the Korg audio-sample labs by one Henry Bart Fuster (circa 1972). Unmistakably, however, our modern 64 studio filters now commonly render that high-pitched industry standard we've all come to enjoy... in West Coast rap variations, particularly, and most recognizably in "beat-progressives" of the upper chromatic registers. FYI - In an article in Rap Review (issue No. 1333 - Jam Publications, 2003) Dr. Dre coined this newly discovered, tonal wonder a "weird distorted ringing sound", or WDRS as we know it today. The band, Sublime, improved upon WDRS in their smash hit "Doin' Time". But the most widely accepted - or definitive - example of the Weird-Distorted-Ringing-Sound will forever be credited to Snoop Dog's remix of the same song. The rest is history.
