It is amazing what you can find by poking around the internet for an hour.
Daft Punk, those crazy tech house minimal dance guys, have been the masters of sampling for years now. They take rock riffs, headbob basslines, a nice dose of acid and those wonderful electronic robot vox parts and mash them all together. Well, Palms Out Sounds has done a bit of research on songs that different DP tracks have sampled. Only electronic music can take the grit and gumption of a good rock song and style it for a dance floor.
Of course, like the post says, “as you hear these tracks you’ll either decide Daft Punk isn’t as genius as you thought they were or that they’re twice as amazing”, which is undoubtably true.
And after you are done with that, you will notice the bottom has a last little link to a great video trailer for a movie that Daft Punk is doing. A movie? Cool.
