@@flightg97shadowgarth32 they are! People are still looking for at least three, the beat, another instrument/thing I can't remember, and a voice! It's been 20 years since it was released
Video didn’t even mention the sample from “The Stranger” at the end of Loop 3. So committed to sampling one song, only to jump completely to another song off the album. Daft Punk were masters of hiding samples from the same album in plain sight.
I knew it was Billy Joel, and I could hear it in "High Fidelity", but I never found anyone with the dedication to properly deconstruct it. Kudos, my good (wo)man.
I cried for some reason. This isn't an "exposed!" Vid as much as a "omfg how amazing they are to have formed music from this. How creative must they be to see the music within these samples. They have to be robots to calculate these clips into full songs." Amazing. Truly the best at their craft.
No fucking way, I never connected the sample in High Fidelity to Billy Joel. And I'm only able to pick out that extra little EQ'd sample in Crescendolls now that you've pointed it out. This right here is how you really demonstrate a sample effectively, by actually making an attempt to reconstruct it from scratch using the original track. There was another video that I can't find anymore that did the same thing with not nearly as many songs as you did, and it was incredibly instructive. Kudos to you sir.
The one thing that I haven't seen any video attempt yet is to take a crack at reconstructing Face To Face. Most videos just mention the Evil Woman sample and move on, and although I can kinda hear the timbres of ELO in there, I'm having an extremely hard time wrapping my brain around exactly how Thomas, Guy and Todd Edwards chopped that song up into what we hear on the track. Although, I finally found out that they also sampled Falling In Love by Surface and I can definitely hear clear snippets of that song in the mix, way more easily than with Evil Woman. If you could find the time and willpower to really dig into Face To Face the way you did with High Fidelity, I'm certain it would be extremely helpful to me to understand exactly what is going on in my favorite song from Discovery. Thanks for your hard work.
This is how people with talent sample. Not just stealing the memorable parts of other songs, but creating a memorable hook from a small section of an existing musical passage and adding new melodies to make something fresh.
3:12 to 7:55. WOAH MY GOD!! The samples you can make out of just one of Billy Joel’s most well known hits is absolutely INSANE!! Like I just got transported into another dimension as I’m a producer myself!😮
With how much was taken from Just The Way You Are for High Fidelity, it might as well be "Billy Joel - Just The Way Your Are (Daft Punk High Fidelity Remix)" Still one of my favorite tracks from them.
This was amazing to hear! It really shows just how clever and genius Daft Punk were with their sampling. The samples on High Fidelity and High Life really threw me off... I can only imagine how long it took you to find all the samples!
Spacebrain, that was the shit! Super impressive that you were able to isolate so many samples. Also shows the genius and talent of Daft Punk. Who knew one could do so much with late 70's early 980's samples. I'm sure this took a considerable amount of time to produce. Brilliant!!
Wow this is incredible. More people should watch this! This has more work put into it than most videos made now that get millions of views. Share this video guys.
TEM8 aka Ptpix1 Had Got You Covered.. Check Out The Sampling of Crydamoure and The Sample Breakdown of Two Songs by Fatboy Slim. The Rockefeller Skank was on The First "Sampling of Electronic Artists" Video, While Bird of Prey was on The Fourth of Third "Sampling of Electronic Artists" Video.
I just came back here after 3 years and I'd just like to express my overall impression of this video. It truly opened my eyes to how amazing samples were when I saw it at 17 years old. I've never had such appreciation for music and samples before until now. This video absolutely blew me away and I dare say it's one of the best videos I've ever seen on TH-cam. Shame it doesn't have more views!
In all honesty, I wouldn't be surprised. It has some good songs, but overall, it's disappointing, especially compared to their previous albums. Then again, it's hard to top something as majestic as Discovery.
Holy shit the Musique one just blew my mind. I don't know why I never thought that it was reversed. That was already one of my favorite songs by them but that just made it better.
I think Face to Face is even more complex since more than half of the samples are still unknown to this day, High Fidelity, on the other hand, doesn't use lots of songs, even though this song is as complex as the latter.
Wow Digital Love is definitely my favorite song by them as of now (probably always will be). It has a different, more emotional feel. Also, One More Time will always be a classic, so that one as well ;)
i don't understand complaints about sampling. because in art everything is always inspired by other's work. Without this, already very very long, tradition none of it would exist. I think it is actually impoosible to track down the "real" originator of a tune or a riff, and even if you did manage to find that dead hobo that maybe nile rodgers ripped off (who the hell knows, do you actually know these guys? were you there? no!) who is to say that he wasn't inspired by a little piece of music he heard in a blues bar... If you take little snapshots, even a whole riff, and focus on it, melt it into a fucking awesomely produced housetrack, and are thus creating an own universe with charming little pieces of old vinyl, thats superfine and its so interesting to discover new music when you dive further into the libraries of classic songs that would otherwise never be revisited.. which is a hell of a lot of homework, which they should get credit for anyway because it is a genius universe they made. I BELIEVE THAT THE SHEER VASTNESS OF MUSIC HISTORY ITSELF IS THE JUSTIFICATION FOR REMIXING AND SAMPLING AS AN ARTFORM, THE ART HERE IS THE CHOICES OF MUSIC TO SAMPLE FROM YOU MAKE and of course how you produce them all together with your drum machines, fx etc. ;) any comebacks, still? cheers!
well, i don't haha, just a futile attempt at convincing others, but maybe i better just stop trying ^^ no point winding myself up about it, i guess :p you know the feeling. it just bothers me endlessly that, what would it be, 90 percent?? of people still take all that drake minaj cyrus guetta taylor swift drivel, man, how is it possible not to notice that they're just money groveling corporation acts, that all sound so cliche it makes you want to jump off a cliff, you know? :p lol
I'm guessing they just have thier Akai MPC automatically chop up a sample and map it out it's drum pad, then start playing around with it and see what happens.
This video was one of my first encounters with all this "sampling" stuff, something about music that I currently love so much. Thank you for make this video
FF No, it’s also from Running Away. This video doesn’t show the vocals from the song, which is where that “Oh-Uah” vocal comes from. There used to be a video breaking down how it’s done, but it was deleted.
this is a tutorial on the art of sampling by the masters themseves DAFT PUNK!!! omg, they are fukin genius! great video editing and recreation much respect to the video editor and creator!
I can't even hate on Daft Punk. First albums I ever bought were Daft Punk's, and the fact that most of their music is sampled, have open my ears to lots of great artists that I've never heard of.
When Daft Punk samples their favorite childhood songs, they do so in such an artful way that it feels more like the musical equivalent of "kitbashing."
This video is amazing. I knew Thomas used a lot of looped samples from his Roule releases but I didn't realize the later Daft Punk stuff was so sample heavy. Do you know where around the world came from? Still maybe my favorite Daft Punk track.
*doesn't even touch face to face*
Probably because it has, like, a million samples in it.
It has some interesting stuff in it i bet
This comment has more meaning today.
I swear new samples are discovered in that song all the time.
@@flightg97shadowgarth32 they are! People are still looking for at least three, the beat, another instrument/thing I can't remember, and a voice! It's been 20 years since it was released
Wow. High fidelity was on another level. And most people won't ever know the work behind it.
i dont think its in this video, but look up how they sampled 'face to face', trust me its like high fidelity on crack
Video didn’t even mention the sample from “The Stranger” at the end of Loop 3. So committed to sampling one song, only to jump completely to another song off the album. Daft Punk were masters of hiding samples from the same album in plain sight.
Holy Shit dude the high fidelity sample blew my mind!!!!
you have one hell of an ear!!!
Its such a complex and somewhat creative sampling process involved in high fidelity, amazing stuff by DP
yeah i loved how they got those swirling keyboard sounds

High Fidelity was so unexpected lol
That was the best breakdown of High Fidelity I've ever seen on TH-cam.
The High Fidelity one was so clever!
I know right
i see u
how did he even find out
Incredible this is genius
I could have heard the source a hundred times and still not have put two and two together.
That High Fidelity sampling is insane!

Alex Taylor Except for Robot Rock stealing the first guitar riff of Release The Beast and just looping it for 5 minutes
TheDotGamer GD true. That one wasn't a great example. But the other ones are really creative.
@@thedotgamer9592 but I would glad to know how much people still remember this track of breakwater before robot rock release still
@@PrinceOfPixel Are you implying it's okay because the song wasn't well known?
You described diddys career
I will never look at "The High Life" the same way again.....
Daft Punk has great, funky taste
When I see how they made their songs, it confirms me that Daft Punk are real genius, and that you are a genius too for finding all of this :o
that high fidelity sample is dope!
If you made all these researches and explainations with your owns extracted samples, you're a boss. Thanx man.
Hearing the loops come together is a thing of beauty. And they sound just as awesome before the audio alterations as after!
High Fidelity was always one of my favorite tracks off Homework...that sampling was first class, man. Well done putting it together!
3:12 to 7:55. WOAH MY GOD!! The samples you can make out of just one of Billy Joel’s most well known hits is absolutely INSANE!! Like I just got transported into another dimension as I’m a producer myself!😮
11:41 Aerodynamic
19:02 High Life
that intro beat sample of Superheroes.. i had no idea! omg lol
Tony Hinshaw weird flex but ok

Thank you for your work, this is not real stealing a sample, it’s recreates a new song. It’s evolving
OMFG the sampling of High Fidelity... What a Fantasy
10:27 - 10:54 Love the frequency transition to the original !
The amount of work that went into High Fidelity and face to face is just insane
What you did with that last part in High Life was amazing. Well done!
How sweet does it sound!
your dad's a crab
Shaquille Blackley
aw man, you're right
I started listening to Break Down for Love by Tavares because of this video. Really chill song!
I always heard the second loop of High Fidelity as saying "Lou Bega".
For 20 years I thought they were speaking French, it was billy joel
These bastards are sneaky. I had no idea this was sampling they were doing. Having said that, I think it was done in a tasteful way.
Not sneaky, creative
Daft Punk haciendo honor a su nombre, son perfectos unos maestros, excelente vídeo.

The Human After All album was reportedly made in only 6 weeks and it definitely shows here
In all honesty, I wouldn't be surprised. It has some good songs, but overall, it's disappointing, especially compared to their previous albums. Then again, it's hard to top something as majestic as Discovery.
Human After All is amazing for how little time it was made in. Criminally underrated.
I’m also one of those that really likes Human After All. I prefer that kind of hard techno over their new soul-funk sound
Human after all may not be a great record but the way they worked the songs in live on alive 2007 was genius.
There's some solid bangers in there, Technologic is my guilty pleasure.
Holy shit the Musique one just blew my mind. I don't know why I never thought that it was reversed. That was already one of my favorite songs by them but that just made it better.

being a genius!

They also used mostly the SP1200 :)
This video was one of my first encounters with all this "sampling" stuff, something about music that I currently love so much. Thank you for make this video
Have so much respect for how long it must have taken to reverse engineer everything here even with the credit
1:16 i fell in love with this.
Already knew a lot of these samples from other videos and was pleased to discover a few more. Thanks, very instructive and well put together!
19:35 & 21:36, I rarely find these in the majority of covers, nice touch!
Best video ever about Daft Punk's samples!
My goodness, now I can die happy... my childhood and teenage years explained T-T
Thanks for getting this back up, it's been a while since I last saw this!
the sampling from The Stranger is BEAUTIFUL
That moment when you realize ytpmvs aren't that far away from being popular songs, beloved by many around the world.
Musique is underrated in my opinion, making an entire song based on a small sample played in reverse is truly unique.
Moby moment
Holy shit, this is incredible. These two DJs are truly absolute masters of the craft.
Excellent video.
Un-fucking real with the High Fidelity sample
Voyager is such a perfect song for driving at night
In 'Voyager', the drumbeat in the intro is most likely to be sampled from 'Avenues' by Refugee Camp All-Stars.
Thumbs up! Great "discovery" of samples!
I could watch the High Fidelity debunk over and over...It amazes me so much 🙌🏽
The High Life sample(s) is so good, one of my fave tunes from Discovery.
BTW, One More Time does in fact sample More Spell On You because you can hear the tinging of the triangle in both the original song and the samples!
It's no wonder High Fidelity was always my favorite of the Homework album. The sampling is genius
Great quality video! Deserves much more views.
I'll never get tired of this video, gotta love Daft Punk.
Simply Amazing!

that "one more time" man, good job Daft punk. insane

4 people uses drumkits and samplekits lol. Thx SB...its an amazing and inspiring video!
the High Fidelity one threw me for a loop because I couldnt hear it until the end of the breakdown.
the one more time was just too perfect that i couldnt resist watching it 10 more times
Thank god it's back.
Finally, we know the origins of "cartoon, eat a drink" and "buy a bong"
The High Fidelity sample still blows my mind.

I know this was 4 years after but ironically he missed some
Yeah he did his homework for them
Nice video. Very interesting to actually see the process of sampling.

AWESOME WORK
wow. great job. Part of Unlocking Daft Punk History.
What do you think about the recent discovery of the sample for Fresh?
Lol no comment
Love it
