What makes a remix album sort of easy to pick on though is that sometimes there is just a singular bass drop added or a different beat strung throughout the original song to make it danceable. I love a handful of the remixes like the Basement Jaxx remix of Phoenix to make it sound more grimy and aggressive or the Demon remix of Face to Face. I felt the need to include this album because I feel as though it puts a unique spin on some of the tracks from that record and also it just slaps. Daft Club (2003)ĭaft Club is sort of a remix album for Discovery. Also as much as I liked the Tron Legacy Soundtrack I didn’t feel the need to rank it in the mix. I thought in honor of their retirement I would rank their albums (including Daft Club and the live albums) by my personal enjoyment. I didn’t always talk about them, but they were always that one group that had a nearly flawless discography. They also released an anime to play in part with their album Discovery called “Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem”.Īs you can probably tell, I really enjoyed their music over the years. Their song Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger was accompanied by two hands that had all the lyrics written on various fingers and the palms. They also can be credited to having one of the first ‘viral’ videos on YouTube. From Nile Rodgers of Chic, The Weeknd, Julian Casablancas, Paul Williams, to even Kanye West. Daft Punk was an act that it seemed like everyone wanted to work with. They did so much for the house scene, modern electronic music, and even rock. It is very rare that an act like Daft Punk comes around and has an influence carry into three separate decades the way theirs did. It seemed like when they initially broke up on February 21st of this year, everyone had something to say. Artists like Disclosure and Mark Ronson both credited them as massive influences to the electronic and rock genres. Their influence and style influenced a lot of artists that we hear on the radios nowadays too.
The duo hadn’t released anything since 2013’s Random Access Memories, unless you count their work on The Weeknd’s album, Starboy, or their production on Kanye West’s Yeezus and Arcade Fire’s Everything Now. It’d be a lie to say this wasn’t expected. This was followed by Thomas Bangalter walking into the sunset alone. At least one can assume that by the somewhat goofy snippet of Guy Manuel’s robot exploding in the middle of the desert. Currently Listening to: Saturation by Brockhampton IntroductionĪ little over a month ago Daft Punk announced their retirement from music.
