Join us on a journey through Daft Punk's first two albums as we analyze the iconic French House duo's beats. And we're not simply taking the original samples - we're rebuilding the rhythms from scratch to understand what made them tick in the first place! We also do a short cover of each song so you can hear the drums in context :)

@KissMyConverseFool 2 месяца назад

also if music is your parents' job, they can't tell you music isn't a job so callously

@Roasty420 Месяц назад

Would that make it impossible to have a career in music? As someone who wants to make EDM and someday play at major festivals, would that be impossible unless I had some kind of massive cash flow?

@birchwwolf Месяц назад

@@Roasty420 It's still very possible to have a career in music but your name may not be as marquee as you're expecting it to be. You may still need a job on the side, in or out of music. But you can still have a nice following and earnings. Not all of us can have banker parents that fly us in and out of Nashville for vocal coaching and studio time in our teens, eh? As someone who has actually tried to get on Anjunabeats myself: keep making music because you like doing so, and keep at it because it will take years to get recognized. Don't shy away from those supporting you now just because you think a bigger, "better" crowd is on the horizon. Keep your eye on where you want to go but don't lose sight of the road right at your feet. And nobody expects to go viral so don't feel bad if you don't.

Yes, my first encounter with Daft Punk was also Around the World and I can clearly remember as I stood in the room, mesmerized, staring at the screen and couldn't believe what I saw. It was amazing and I quickly learned the bands name with it. You recreated the songs but I still don't know what makes them good. They are just good. Still good after all these years.

Da Funk is definitely one of my all time favourite tracks (I remember the music video so well, that poor dog). The fact that it was what Daft Punk came out of the gates with is something else. The two of you are incredibly talented to do this. Not only the extreme dissecting of the tracks to uncover the elements and patterns but also the flawless playing of the musical elements! Hats off.

@llllbserkllll 5 месяцев назад

great video, thank you very much! As someone who has been quite deep into the house and techno scene since the early 90s, I can only underline what an important album "Homework" was. Even though "Around the World" was a pretty mainstream track, the rest of the album is completely unknown to most people - the tracks on this record were simply too experimental and crazy. In the scene, however, "Homework" was a milestone, an earthquake, a comet impact! The tracks were incredibly clean and high-quality production for the time, they were creative, excellently composed and extremely danceable and catchy. One of the best and most important albums in the history of electronic music - and what's more, it's also the first album by the two of them. After that everything just sounded different - every producer of electronic music suddenly valued the quality of the production. Previously this was only optional, as long as it at least made a good bang. To this day, tracks like "Rock'n'Roll" are absolutely banger and timelessly beautiful. When DaftPunk went mainstream with their second album, they were actually dead to the "real" techno scene. No matter how elaborately "Discovery" was produced, real techoheads found this music too silly. But for “Homework,” DaftPunk will always be loved and deeply respected.
