And I disagree, if you close your eyes, it sounds exactly like something from '96 -- that is, ANYTHING from '96.
this is totally wrong to me. list three tracks by other people that could've been on Homework or vice versa. in '96 nothing sounded like DP (not even just the recontext of disco on 'Trax On Da Rocks' - American takes on this weren't as 'psychedelic' or the deeper-but-less-range 'Pansoul').

listened to bit of old Leftfield essential mix from '94 last night and it's got 'Alive' in it daamn

i d/l'd 'discovered', this thing of 'tracks sampled by' DP. kind of bemused -- no idea what connects 'da funk' to the track they include.

we should do a poll on best song sampled by daft punk, on its own.

Naaaaaaahhhhhh...
If anything, Homework kinda went against the grain. The big trends in house and techno at that time were breakbeats, deep/progressive house, drum and bass, trip hop, etc... Trippy, spacey, "warm", "deep" immersive sounds. Daft Punk were a bit more stripped down, hard edged, disco-ish, electro-ish. They were a ahead of their time in some ways, and looking back in others.

typical of ILM to champion the weaker option.

Listen u fong, ilm is a general interest music board, not a dance board, and Discovery obv has the wider reach. 44 votes for Homework is still pretty significant!

-- jabba hands"
so people with "general interest" don't actually know anything about dance as we can see here. and judging by the "rap" producers poll, they dont know shit about hiphop either. so for all the general interest, what the fuck does anyone know about here?
