POLLin’ & Scratchin' - ILM Artist Poll #113 - DAFT PUNK (Results Thread)

Pollin' it right

I was really worried at first as I only had two ballots for the longest time. I guess Daft Punk deep dive for most people took some time. Well worth it in the end.

I see Daft Punk were nice enough to release something new for our poll:

I'm going to try and not embed these things, any help?

Soul Train: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WZ8vp7D1hrI

oh short links embed too? oof, my bad. Sorry!

You see what I'm going through

It worked before with the . between U and B in YouTube but that trick is not working

Readers can turn off images which turns off embeds.

Type (URL=http:YouTube address) Text of link(/URL)

but with square brackets and it should work

And stoked for the results. Thanks for running!

Fresh (Official Video)

10. Fresh
40 Points, 2 Votes

from YouTube comments:
The concept for this video echoes that of the "Da Funk" video, in that the track is treated as nothing more than a score against which the story plays out. "Fresh" was directed by Daft Punk themselves; Jonze makes a guest appearance as the director of Charles' film. Daft Punk wanted Charles to return in a happier environment, to cheer up fans who saw him in a depressing situation in the "Da Funk" video. This would see him enjoying an acting career, receiving compliments, and dating Beatrice.

quite the expected jump

Burnin' was always my favourite video of theirs for the cameos and I particularly loved that smooth stop-start effect with the fire trucks - that technique being part of a surge in similar trendy effects in other music videos in the run up to The Matrix. Love the Fresh video too really wish they would re-up these remastered (as they have done for Around The World).

i like the Revolution 909 video but yeah very surprised it beat Da Funk
my top 3 videos were:

1. Around The World
2. Da Funk
3. Revolution 909

If "If You Give Me The Love I Want" were eligible it would've been second on my ballot.

it wasn't eligible? that was my discovery of the poll and i voted for it because of your promoting it in the nominations thread lol

anyway, mine

Cracking poll, thanks Bee OK & nashwan! Top 10 is pretty undeniable really, I had Stardust at #1 but Digital Love is great too.

I'm temporarily detached from my ballot but will post tomorrow. Really enjoyed revisiting all the Roulé & Crydamoure catalogue as part of the voting process, such a shame that no legitimate streams/downloads exist. There's a lot of contemporaneous French house / filter disco that is even more forgotten - thinking of Pro-Zak Trax, Fiat Lux, the Motobass album - which is worth digging up.

Thank you poll organizers, this was fun!

Excellent poll!

HOLY CRAP - I did not expect my #1 Digital Love to be the overwhelming fav. You peeps all have great taste.

That song just has everything: nostalgic yet futuristic and cutting edge, emotes that first crush feel, has an absolutely transcendent instrumental house beat chorus, and features the most epic fucking guitar/vocoder funky solo breakdown ever. I made a booboo and should have voted the video as my #1 too, but ah well, this makes up for it. To me, this is Daft Punk's best song by leaps and bounds, and is sung by them too iirc. Just captures everything about them that I love x10 and is the towering decadence of production and execution I missed on Human After All. And it slaps. Hard.

Really was an interesting poll, 30 ballots received was amazing and the electronic segment of ILM I have mad respect for.

Really enjoyed doing the images although it took a huge chunk out of my four day weekend but I don't get to do enough graphic design in my dayjob these days and it has to go somewhere.

Thank you again for the time, didn't know I took that out of your four day. You made this poll and glad to be able to get that out of your system.

Thank you Bee OK and nashwan so much for this!

Cranking up the discography made for a great Friday/Saturday here. When the playback got to Digital Love I had classic frisson - goosebumps and lump in throat. An amazing song whose power definitely does not diminish with time.

My daughter had to endure my ramblings about French teenagers making Chicago House. They are one of the best of all time and the best of the best truly sets the standard for everything else I listen too.

Now to re-listen to the '96 Even Further live set and '99 Dalton Expo rave - Thomas on three turntables for two hours under one red light bulb. The latter is one of my most cherished musical memories.

Daft Punk Essential Mix

+1. I wanted to vote for their Essential Mix somehow. I have probably listened to it more than anything else Daft Punk has ever done. For a period in grad school, I studied to it endlessly.

Fantastic poll. Images were A+. Thank you, Bee OK & nashwan!

How was I the only one who voted for “Mosquito”?

re: Music Sounds Better With You

At this point it sounds like it’s been done a million times, in 1998 it sounded like it came from another dimension.

― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Saturday, April 23, 2022

I remember feeling like it came from another dimension too

I like that the middle of One More Time is completely suspended and focused on Romanthony’s vocals. The charisma of Romanthony’s voice in it is second only to that of Benjamin Diamond’s in Music Sounds Better With You

Bangalter remarked that “the break is so long it's not even the break. The song itself is the breakdown."

Hated how long that break was the first time I heard it but it's my favorite part of the song now

re: Digital Love

That song just has everything: nostalgic yet futuristic and cutting edge, emotes that first crush feel, has an absolutely transcendent instrumental house beat chorus, and features the most epic fucking guitar/vocoder funky solo breakdown ever.

― octobeard, Saturday, April 23, 2022

otm

also the extreme filtering and the Supertramp Wurlitzer added to the suspense

High five to whoever the other Disco Cubizm voter was

Like many people, Da Funk was obviously the first of theirs I heard (read about it 95, but didn't actually hear it till early 96) and was another instant favourite.

First heard it on the superb Laurent Garnier Essential Mix in late 1995 and to this day still think John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13 is going to come in at the end

Missed the poll as I was on holiday, will spend the day going through it.

Well it was a shame not to follow along in real time but seems like a fun poll with great images, thanks Bee OK and nashwan.

My hastily cobbled together ballot, I see my #1 of Aerodynamic generated zero discussion - ok it doesn't have the emotional depth of Digital Love or One More Time or Too Long or (pick any other song from Discovery) but that sick guitar sound is like crack to me.

Hated how long that break was the first time I heard it but it's my favorite part of the song now

afaict it's on the 'good producer bucket list' to make a track where the break is the most special part of the song.

somehow i hadn't heard 'digital love' until this poll lmao it's good thanks poll!

...basically my fave ~40% of each of the 4 albums. grateful for the poll as a guide to their other projects, a lot of which I wasn't familiar with.

I see my #1 of Aerodynamic generated zero discussion - ok it doesn't have the emotional depth of Digital Love or One More Time or Too Long or (pick any other song from Discovery) but that sick guitar sound is like crack to me.

Alive 1997

Nothing much here that wasn't discussed in the rollout, but Paris By Night (from the Irreversible soundtrack) is a mid-tempo acid plodder that I discovered during the voting and grew sufficiently fond of to place.

This commercial is playing all the time right now, it's "Nightcall" by Kavinsky.

12 minutes of bliss. I wish they would just release the full helmet-less Mayan Theater show from 1997 already. This one is fantastic and it's great the band is finally releasing some of this stuff.

They released that Rollin & Scratchin perf in 1999 though - it’s on the first DVD with multiple camera angles you can switch between

I didn't know any of this and haven't seen any Daft Punk DVDs. I only knew about the Twitch feed from earlier this year, so I thought this release was off of that.

Since Daft Punk is the topic of conversation around here, it reminded me of my project that I promised in the poll thread. I'm updating all my polls, in reverse order, so the results are easier to read.
