What's up with Daft Punk?

Questionable Franz Ferdinand remixes aside, does anyone know what's up with these guys? I know Bangaltar has kept himself busy working on film soundtracks and producing anthemic house songs with collaborator DJ Falcon. Does anyone know if there is anything coming up on the horizon?

They're now sucking quietly, instead of the in-your-face-on-every-airwave suckage of a year or two ago.

I like it better now.

I'm sick of this 'hater' bullshit.

I think they make boring music, and I think I'm entitled to say so on this forum. Do I have to like every single band in every single genre that ever existed to not be a 'hater'?

I don't give a fuck if you don't like the music I like; I'm not going to say "OMG haters!" if you say Coil or the Fall suck on one of the threads dealing with those groups.

P.S. Bassmet Jaxx suck as well. *Especially* something like 'Red Alert'.

wow, you're right.

Can I hate on Daft Punk on ILX?

Here on ILX, only Lil Jon is more unassailable than Daft Punk and all haters who attempt to board will be repelled. A second offense will result in computer viruses sent to your IP address. Embrace the digital love or leave.

I think we should add Basement Jaxx and late 90s timbaland.

― djdee2005, Wednesday, 18 August 2004 06:38 (8 years ago) Permalink

Other than the Daft Punk and the Basement Jaxx thing, it is kind of nice round here. Has ILX decided that the last DP album was actually any good in some kind of mass oversight?

it's over-rated, I like it more than ever tho. Basement Jaxx are my favourite thing of all time.

daft punk >> basement jaxx > drugs, food, bumping uglies, etc

the proof is in comparing the singles tracks and essential mixes and ignoring album vs album matchups.

― vahid (vahid), Wednesday, 18 August 2004 09:29 (8 years ago) Permalink

no i think Basement Jaxx have better single tracks and essential mixes too

― the neurotic awakening of s (blueski), Wednesday, 18 August 2004 09:31 (8 years ago) Permalink

heh, well OK, not entirely - several tracks on Homework I might prefer to anything by Jaxx (Da Funk, Fresh, Burnin', Alive)...

really?? hm. i thought the daft punk EM was like the holy grail of french/chicago house. it's the one disc (two discs, actually!) that's consistenly been in my CD wallet since i got it (well over a year, i think). maybe it's a, uh, london thing or something.

Disco legend Giorgio Moroder ha revealed that he recorded a “rap” for the new Daft Punk album. During a one-on-one interview at International Music Summit in Ibiza, the producer behind genre-defining songs such as “I Feel Love” and “The Chase” revealed that he recently went into the studio with the French duo.

The robots asked the Munich Machine to go into a vocal booth and speak about his life. In the studio were multiple microphones of various vintages from the ’60s to today. When Moroder asked the engineer why they had so many mics, he replied that the mic they would use would depend on what decade of his life he was speaking about. When Moroder asked if anyone would know the difference, the engineer replied “They will know.”

French magazine 'Tsugi' confirmed the duo will premier the new single July 21st.

I have a Daft Punk related question. I remember that before Discovery was released, a number of tracks were leaked online. Some were not actually DP tracks, and some were early versions of what ended up on Discovery. This collection is now floating around online as Discovery (beta version).

When I bought a copy of the proper album, I was actually a little disappointed, because I thought the beta versions sounded better, or like they were going in a better direction. I downloaded the beta version, recently, but the track missing from it, that I really want, is the demo version of Face to Face.

In this version, the samples are rearranged differently and the only lyrics from Todd Edwards are 'What's going on? Could this by my understanding?'

If anyone could point me to where I could find this rare bootleg I would be very grateful.
