"nothing" besides the exhaustive list of gear they had in their studio bedroom? He may come off as humble, because a lot of that equipment was cheap equipment, but it's not fair to put it down the way Guetta is here because that equipment was still very powerful and for what it was, it was the studio that made both Homework and Discovery
During an early live performance daft punk made a track on the fly when a plug became half disconnected causing a heavy transient buzz. The crowd went nuts and the boys just went with it
@@pmin5554 I can't remember matey. Old and frazzled now. iirc that little nugget was featured on a BBC4 music documentary about them (and later covered their work with Nile Rogers) . The gig was on home turf and they were still so unknown they played as "themselves" without disguise. The pre homework years
i remember seeing it as part of one of the documentary's around their intro into daft punk for them - its funny you just hear one part completely cut out n the one time you seem to see one 'panic' but then a kinda rhythm comes out of it - then you see the lightbulb above their head as he's bent round the back of their vinyl - and a proper melody! I haven't seen anything like it bar stuff from a local vinylist but none of them would think of using one of the sounds of a faulty cable LIVE
@@pmin5554Couldn’t tell you the track’s name however you can read this tale from a producer named EatsEverything. If you type his name and itw daft punk you should find it.
It is absolutely bonkers the lengths that Daft Punk went through to make their own sound. It's like the "lick" that ABBA made with "Gimme Gimme Gimme (Man After Midnight)" and you wonder how the hell do you make something like this?
Okay Mr. Confident, then go ahead and post the video and I'll give you a week and see what you can come up with. And I'm sure it'll be a big banging hit just like daft punk used to get right? You internet goons no matter how annoying are pretty entertaining to listen to the kind of stuff that y'all come up with I swear@@dragankostic26
That was my excuse too. I didn't have the tools to make the music or money or I didn't have the right equipment or the ones I wanted... But I didn't realize until now that the tools were all around me and that the most important tool was me and my love for music. I don't have that excuse anymore (more like doubt) and actually like being limited lol I used to think I needed all this expensive instruments to make good music but that's just false
@@AndreasJepsenMusic I still use a Roland MC 909 that's old and unfortunately can not be repaired because it's so old but that's my Main machine to play my live set and Man ! do people go Nuts 😮 watching me play this old machine likes it's the newest thing. They're loving the sounds coming out of it to . And that right there is like Daft Punk and Prodigy and the Crystal Method played great shows from what they have at the time . And the rest is history . Take care
Thomas’s dad was a LEGENDARY producer in the 70’s French disco scene, (starting the label Roule) and they CAME FROM MONEY. Don’t be fooled. The harder artists tries to tell you that they “came from nothing” the bigger NEPO BABIES they are. . .
I feel like David Guetta might be a successful person that you could actually learn from. He seems honest and you could associate his experiences to your own view or experience in the world
I always say, it’s not about the instrument, it’s about the player. I think that’s why I get annoyed with music gearheads who argue endlessly about pedals and plugins and which instrument is the best. Just..play.
Also ive never really seen someone perform with this set up properly or exactly how it works. I think youd have quite a lot of interedt if you broke it down how you perform live with ither music etc too
AHAHAHAH Chiunque è un musicista lo sa perfettamente che non serve chissà cosa per fare la musica dei Daft Punk, ovviamente a loro volta musicisti, ma ci vuole sensibilità, cervello ecc... Caratteristiche INTERDETTE a chi come "dj" si spaccia per musicista.
Bull***t ! One of the Daft father was a big disco and pop producer in the 70s and 80s with one, if not THE biggest record collection of Paris ! But still they are better than you David even if you got some pretty good guys in your team....
This has got to be the biggest load of obvious crap. Thomas’s father was already well respected/connected in the industry. They were from middle class backgrounds and had loads of expensive gear for Homework. Stuff that anyone would dream of when starting a musical career. Hate it when people just plainly lie in interviews
Well true but thing is David Guetta surely is on the same level.Been hearing his music(ok maybe not entirely his but mixes or whatever) for 20 years. He is consistent.
They spent like half a million on the vocoder, or more. I think that’s what you’re referring to? I can’t find it anywhere, quickly Googling it, but I remember reading that somewhere. It was possibly as high as $2,000,000 on the vocoder?
I've never really heard much from him interviews-wise (to be fair, I don't watch much like that, I should tho, it's always interesting) but I really value how candid and honest he is :) also, I do adore daft punk lol
Anyone else find it ironic he tries to raise a point about beginners being wrong about certain people having better connections that give them a leg up, whilst having just described a story where he got to personally interact with and visit the studio of Thomas Bangalter... Daft Punk were just that talented but David absolutely is privileged in the same sense he assumed they were.
Thomas's father was one of the biggest disco producer in France. He had access to all the connections, the knowledge and the gear he wanted. Guy Man and him went to the best schools France had to offer and were part of the "elite" or bourgeoisie. The thing is, before internet, it gave you a big head start. But they are still brilliant and hard working guys that just got nurtured in the best way possible. Nothing wrong with that.
Here's a fun game: Try not being so focused on what someone else is doing and minding your OWN business. Super fun, you won't insult anyone and it will be harder to find out that you're such a miserable person.
So Daft Punk had little/no studio setup and Justice made their first album with GarageBand... and Avicii just used some FL Studio basics to make HIS first album... If you want to be a legend, you gotta start somewhere, and - ironically - that somewhere could be better than what you make afterwards.
@@tylertbone9 No, what I realized was that the people in my community who were the best were So Much Better than me that even with a lot of work I wouldn't be able to catch up. Maybe it was innate talent, maybe early childhood education, I don't know... But I had better chances of professional success elsewhere.
@@tylertbone9 You're right, but let's not pretend that there aren't musical geniuses out there. When I started playing the piano, I had a classmate who was able to play advanced pieces within a single year with minimal effort. You either accept your own limits and cope with them (as I did), or you move to another hobby
