i read in some interview, that Discovery album was inspired by DP childhood music...they grow hearing this music and decided to inclued those songs as a tribute to their childhood
Why some people say "Daft Punk is stealing"? I have the leaflet of Discovery album on my hands, and on every song that is listed here from that album (all but the last one) says "contains a sample from blaablaablaa, performed by blaablaa, used by permission of *the record label*". So what is the problem?
People love scapegoating and humans have a great reputation for not reading important tidbits like video descriptions, item captioning and album credits.
And people are getting disappointed about this...why? This is what DJs do. They take chunks of songs and make other songs out them. That is what sampling is.
The reason why sampling was used so much on the discovery album is because they gave electronic music a chance when they were back in their rock band roots. After their homework album alot of their fans showed little to no respect towards other music. They wanted the discovery album to be very diverse and different from any other dance album. With more of a feel good tone. They paid respect to the music from the good ol' days with this album, and just made each song BETTER!
In French House sampling is a popular technique but it is not just getting one sound. There needs to be extensive changes/alters to the sample. This video shows examples of it too - their samples sound very different...
listen to the rest of these tracks rather than this video thats been carefully edited to only include the part that most matches the sampled track, and then call it a heavy sample
@dhanwantri I just viewed Newton’s original letter. He did not write ye. He wrote þe (thorn + e) which is pronounced THE when read aloud. Not ye. He also spelled shoulders as sholders. Not a mistake… spelling was different in the 1600s and not yet standardized.
@@electrictroy2010 Hah thanks for clearing that up. Took 11 years but worth it! I learned something new today and this comment bought me back to this video.
*the fact that an artist uses samples shouldn't make you stop liking it,* duh, most artists (even the most famous ones) use samples, that you are ignorant and don't know is something else. using samples is like using a synth instead of a real instrument, don't be boomers.
I'm impressed by how diverse Daft Punk's ears are. They sample such a wide range of music that most of us would never have heard and them make them head banging. Now I know why i always felt a disco vibe from their stuff
@JordanMedina THE 90s had lots of references or samples back to 70s disco. Not just Daft Punk but other popular artists of the time (Will Smith, Mariah Carey, C&C Music Factory, etc) .
Sampling is great. My favorite band, The Prodigy samples alot, but Daft Punk doesn't change the samples at all! It sounds exactly like the original, that I don't like..
Sorry to say but you dont know shit about sampling then, have you even heard their samples from their Discovery album? Or how they went hard and reused those samples to make 2 newer albums. Who has done that ? I can assured you no matter how much I like the prodigy they cannot and will not ever come to Daft Punk lvl. This isnt my opinion its a fact because unlike you. I do know about sampling at a great extent then you.
Yeah folks are like "they just took it somewhere" but take few seconds of a song and add ALL THE REST to create a new song cool as fuck can't be done by anyone... :)
So Daft Punk takes less than stellar music and redoes it to make it sound epic, and not only that but while in concert they mix these songs into an arsenal of eargasmic euphoria. Yep they are officially awesome.
If you listen to the full songs they are way different than the ones from daft punk. They used sounds from other songs and they made them into different and unique songs. There’s nothing wrong with that
@@nowonmetube correct, if any of the naysaying commenters would bother to listen to teh entire tracks involved, instead of the conveniently clipped sections that were sampled, they would realize that these tracks were so conveniently clipped for a reason . . . because the rest of these songs is completely different from the sourced samples . . . also, if you want to bitch about daft punk PAYING for samples and making music with them, maybe redirect your attention to all the cRap "artists" that pay nothing for samples under 10 notes, and get away with not changing them at all
Did you hear me say, "Sampling or NOT I love Daft Punk." I love their older stuff, but I just liked that on RAM DP and Collaborators wrote practically everything.
It explains why RAM is their worst album. Because they decided not to use samples from more talented musicians and write something themselves instead. And they failed, because RAM is random unmemorable crap.
I don't give a fuck if they took a small piece of a song and mixed it! 1st of all they didn't even remix the whole song, they took a small piece and added to their song. Rhianna, Kanye West and alot famous 'artists' do the same thing and nobody gives a shit but when Daft Punk does it, everyone gets upset. Yea i'm a Daft Punk die hard. Now give me your hateful comments.
All those artists that do it and get o'hella famous from it shit me to tears. How much money are they rolling around in whilst genuine artists go overlooked. There's my hateful comment Alvor Riverwood
in regards to kanye specifically, if you strip his voice track from "stronger" its literally just barely a remix of the original DP song . . . talk about heavily sampled, when that damn song comes on i spend the first 10 seconds thinking "yayyy daft punk" and then his damn voice track cuts in
Benjlmao sampling doesn't "look like" anything, and it's a billion times easier to do than learning an instrument, finding a band, writing the song, spending time money, food&gas on rehearsals and more. I've done/am doing both, and samp[ling has been dead easy to do with one machine since about, oh, 1984 when the Fairlight came along, and was easily affordable by 1990 with the akai s1000. Inspiration/vision. imagination and production are another matter, but sampling is technically trivial. I think what you mean is it's "not easy" is to sound different, and that is always true regardless of approach or genre.
@@nowonmetube maybe listen to the actual tracks, rather than this purposefully edited video . . . also all but one of these tracks came from an album that was specifically advertised as a love letter to their influences ffs, i wish people wouldnt believe everything they read or see on the damn internet >.>
The CD liner notes only credit 4 samples, though around 13 or 14 have been spotted. The group outright denied a lot of them, but they've since been proven. (Example: One More Time -> More Spell On You)
@suicideposter I agree with you. That was a very good way of putting it. I still do believe that sampling is an art form. It's not as easy as some people might think to transform a riff into an anthem. Thanks for that reply!
Had so much love for these guys until i saw this...... there first album is mainly them. but this one just seems to be all sampled and not even sampled then changed. just mixed down and masted better... such a let down
Let down? Why would you be let down? They're DJs. DJs don't usually make music, they mix music. Daft Punk put their original twist on these songs. Plus, almost all of Human After All is original. You have no reason to be let down.
Nintenxo if you read my thing properly i know djs mix down and sample but theys done it fucking terribly... no emotion.. no editing.. no rearrangement. defiantly no original twist.. just mastered better.. they just found old funk songs that dont have the rights to them anymore and rinsed the shit out of them!! different people with different opinions. why is it as soon people are on the internet they completely forget that
I cant really judge Daft Punk's usage of samples because I don't really listen to much of their music, but when artists such as Kanye West sample, it definitely should be considered artistic as he completely changes the context of the song he sampled, e.g in "Through the Wire", a song about him having his jaw strapped with a wire after a car crash, he samples Chaka Khan's "Through the Fire", a song about love. Sampling is actually quite difficult to master and it requires talent, those who say it isn't art are very ignorant.
Thank you for having my opinion. Daft Punk does not like, only use like, 10 minutes to create their songs, they use a lot of time to make it perfect and such.
so in directly referencing kanye west, are we going to ignore the fact that without his voice track, "Stronger" is basically just a slight remix of daft punks original track? just saying
M Lorenzo but the original people who made the original song get royalties.....just like hip hop producers who use samples from other songs. (ex: Check yourself - ice cube uses the same sample from The message - Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five)
Only a small percentage of Daft Punk's discography is sampled and its all done legally, paying the original artist. So yeah, if its so easy why don't you do it?
That's the whole point of being DJs. They are great at spotting and re-using nuggets to create something much better (or at least more modern) than the original. I couldn't do what they do, so mad props! (Btw: photographers take photos of things that already exist; film makers film things that already exist, ...)
yes, djs sample but daft punk have to be the laziest samplers i've ever heard. a lot of their songs are essentially edits of the original or at best, remixes.
No it's not. Legally it's anyones best guess unless Daft Punk had permission, which they did. Taking that into account this is sampling and nothing else.
@LAGOZY yeah sampling is an art form in itself, and when you get to the extremes of sampling it's border-lining on synthesis. Also, what's even more impressive is how alot of the top artists did this stuff back in the 90's on old school (now obsolete) samplers!
@vtheawesome true also because daft punk using their sample is like a tribute to the original artist also, also people they're DJ's, they gather samples and mix them that's what they do !
When you as a Dj or producer use a sample of another song to create something new, it's a way to make a tribute and recognize what is really good. The Dafts still not disappointing me.
Some of you are missing the point. This is great. Thanks to this post I discovered George Duke and Edwin Birdsong. Added some great music to my collection.
@MithranArkanere daft punk sampled the songs they did because they themselves loved the original songs. though to people saying how much sampling they did, and if daft punk really has musical talent, alive 2007 is their best work and that's just with them sampling their own song collection.
Daft punk used this basis in some of their songs. With others they used strait up musical work. for Alive they used gritty tones, for Homework they used the 90's house scene to influence their beats. They didn't really focus on samples and created their own music. The newest Tron legacy album had no samples at all. They got back to their roots and created something unique. And with the next album coming out on 3.13.13 I can gurantee they will get back to that sound they were famous for.
Man's greatest achievement is not always invention, often, it is innovation and ingenuity. When hearing of the samples, initially I lost respect. Although once I looked more into Daft Punk's sampling (whosampledotcom). I gained more respect than I had lost because many (not all) of the samples only resembled a few tones (a second or so of the song). Turning a fraction of a song into a masterpiece must take unbelievable skill!
@DrummTrip44 Um, If you look up Madeon the first song you might come across is "Pop Culture" which is 39 different songs being sampled at once. I know he has some original stuff too, but you kinda have to know what to look for.
@LAGOZY not to forget something, sampling is not always just taking a song and cut it, some they have to redo themself, which is basicly a hell of a work. im a producer i know that
they are djs! all in music like each art on earth is already done!, a dj is a music designer, cut, copy and paste! they take their influences to make their own music. Funky, disco, dance are sounds that they used to do what they felt like, thanks to god that they have the best influences on the history of music.
Can't blame them for sampling good riffs they enjoy. They credit everyone in their music. Sampling makes them 'house' and in fact, very original. I didn't hear the other bands repeat their riffs and figures simultaneously. This is what makes them daft punk. ;)
Well they might take the samples from those guys who we never heard of em but they made em new and transformed em to something more appropiate to our century.
They sampled songs most people never listened to...and turned them into something millions listen to. Hell, if it wasn't for Daft Punk sampling some of this music, most STILL would never have heard of those songs. They do good work.
I was like let's take a look down nostalgia road and look at my favorites from 4-5 years ago. I'm like uh-oh when noticing this one in my list thinking it'll have stirred up recent trouble and look at the comments so predictable. Guys this video is five years old the "hipster" fashion wasn't anything near coming out. This is a very informative video DP are my favorite artist and the author of this vid obviously loves DP too If you think this discredits DP in a way then you have insecurity issues
That counts, it's the way you make things and the way you express yourself and also respect. If i for example made a painting and I sold it and then someone saw it made a copy of it and sold it for even more then that is pretty mutch a fraud or copyright infringement.
@DrummTrip44 I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like you were an idiot or anything. I actually was told the exact same thing about looking up Madeon, but I found it hard to find some of his originals (at first) that weren't remixes. now that I have, I think he's great. That's all I meant :)
Tbh I couldn't care less if they did this because nowadays literally every song today has been ripped off from another artist or they include samples from other artists. Forever a daft punk fan ♡
I could understand this if you'd defend other artists, like The Prodigy. But defending Daft Punk? Wtf! They don't even make their own music, they just use the resamples, add robotic voices and call it a day!
Daft punk did what modern musicans do now just in an old way. U can say they are probably some of the first's. Thats what music is all about. Making it better, remixing it and changing it to new heights of expectation.:) DAFT PUNK FOR LIFE!
You do realize that they are a funk/electric group. That pulls inspiration from all of these people and more. Its not surprising to see they sampled all these funk bands to make funk/electric music.
I think you should all watch the 'Copyright Criminals Documentary' it goes into full detail about sampling, from multiple points of view, then you lot can argue about if its right or wrong, me i'm all for sampling, as long as its used in a creative manor then its great, Ill have to admit though while i do love Daft Punk, I wasn't expecting entire 4 beat bars of samples from original artists/bands, i was only expecting a 1 beat hit, or a vocal melody, mixed with other instrumental pieces. :/
Just because they are samples doesn't diminsh the songs, there is no doubt that Daft Punk can write good songs and come up with awesome sounds, they also just use other peoples sounds to create sound. Most of the above are fairly unknown songs and they all did it legally. What is much worse is taking a hit for example "you spin me right round" then bastardising it ala Flo Rida, thats just cashin in on a hit rather then creative sources of sounds and loops
yeah but it doesn't take much to spot these samples, look at the small print about all the songs, it's right there o.O i foudn it out yet i still love all their music, if you think about it this way, they are breathing new life into old music.
i read in some interview, that Discovery album was inspired by DP childhood music...they grow hearing this music and decided to inclued those songs as a tribute to their childhood

They didn't steal shit, they paid to use the segments of those songs. Otherwise there would be lawsuits up the ass

The problem is their lack of creativity
@AuralFiendOfficial Except for Voyager. Voyager had inspiration from Get Down Saturday Night
And people are getting disappointed about this...why? This is what DJs do. They take chunks of songs and make other songs out them. That is what sampling is.
You should read up upon what a DJ actually is.

Pupapo Giuseppe You should read up on DJ's as well. DJ's do way more than just press PLAY.

Issac Newton once said "If I have seen further it is by standing on ye sholders of Giants." Daft Punk in a way salutes to music in the golden era.

when i collected this music together i was unaware of ishkur. actually still unaware... i just did a lot of digging and reading!
I think its cool to see where they found it!
that's pushing the boundaries of what is considered a sample and going into the realm of a remix.
Sampling is art. It is beautiful art. beautiful.
@vtheawesome true also because daft punk using their sample is like a tribute to the original artist also, also people they're DJ's, they gather samples and mix them that's what they do !
For those saying all DP does is take a whole sample and speed it up, listen to High Fidelity
This just makes me like them more.
This video just broke my heart.
that release the beast sample is sick!
well daft punk are like a voice of a generation that they bring old songs back to life
When you as a Dj or producer use a sample of another song to create something new, it's a way to make a tribute and recognize what is really good. The Dafts still not disappointing me.
@nailbiter yours is the kind of intelligent comments we need on youtube.
Hey, great artists inspire great artists.
so good.
its the future of music live with it or die
Some of you are missing the point. This is great. Thanks to this post I discovered George Duke and Edwin Birdsong. Added some great music to my collection.
Just shows they got good taste and tributes the original masters
I have found so many great old tunes like I love you more and and Cola bottle baby by this youtube clip, thanks a lot tombola2004
@Asianbeard Well I'll be damned, you're right.
Touché, Asianbeard..
@MithranArkanere daft punk sampled the songs they did because they themselves loved the original songs. though to people saying how much sampling they did, and if daft punk really has musical talent, alive 2007 is their best work and that's just with them sampling their own song collection.
Daft punk used this basis in some of their songs. With others they used strait up musical work. for Alive they used gritty tones, for Homework they used the 90's house scene to influence their beats. They didn't really focus on samples and created their own music. The newest Tron legacy album had no samples at all. They got back to their roots and created something unique. And with the next album coming out on 3.13.13 I can gurantee they will get back to that sound they were famous for.
Man's greatest achievement is not always invention, often, it is innovation and ingenuity. When hearing of the samples, initially I lost respect. Although once I looked more into Daft Punk's sampling (whosampledotcom). I gained more respect than I had lost because many (not all) of the samples only resembled a few tones (a second or so of the song). Turning a fraction of a song into a masterpiece must take unbelievable skill!
@DrummTrip44 Um, If you look up Madeon the first song you might come across is
"Pop Culture" which is 39 different songs being sampled at once.
I know he has some original stuff too, but you kinda have to know what to look for.
@LAGOZY not to forget something, sampling is not always just taking a song and cut it, some they have to redo themself, which is basicly a hell of a work. im a producer i know that
they are djs! all in music like each art on earth is already done!, a dj is a music designer, cut, copy and paste! they take their influences to make their own music. Funky, disco, dance are sounds that they used to do what they felt like, thanks to god that they have the best influences on the history of music.
I was surprised by how unchanged these were, the main hook of the track being totally lifted in some cases, still I like the Tron soundtrack
Can't blame them for sampling good riffs they enjoy. They credit everyone in their music. Sampling makes them 'house' and in fact, very original. I didn't hear the other bands repeat their riffs and figures simultaneously. This is what makes them daft punk. ;)
As the collage is one of the art style, DJ's remixing is another style, i think. And DaftPunk is one of the best, i believe.
Well they might take the samples from those guys who we never heard of em but they made em new and transformed em to something more appropiate to our century.
They sampled songs most people never listened to...and turned them into something millions listen to. Hell, if it wasn't for Daft Punk sampling some of this music, most STILL would never have heard of those songs. They do good work.
I was like let's take a look down nostalgia road and look at my favorites from 4-5 years ago. I'm like uh-oh when noticing this one in my list thinking it'll have stirred up recent trouble and look at the comments so predictable. Guys this video is five years old the "hipster" fashion wasn't anything near coming out. This is a very informative video DP are my favorite artist and the author of this vid obviously loves DP too If you think this discredits DP in a way then you have insecurity issues
It doesn't matter when they get those samples. It sounds great and leave it on this phase! :D
That counts, it's the way you make things and the way you express yourself and also respect. If i for example made a painting and I sold it and then someone saw it made a copy of it and sold it for even more then that is pretty mutch a fraud or copyright infringement.
Daft punk are sample legends, change my mind
@DrummTrip44 I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like you were an idiot or anything.
I actually was told the exact same thing about looking up Madeon, but I found it hard to find some of his originals (at first) that weren't remixes. now that I have, I think he's great. That's all I meant :)
Tbh I couldn't care less if they did this because nowadays literally every song today has been ripped off from another artist or they include samples from other artists. Forever a daft punk fan ♡
I could understand this if you'd defend other artists, like The Prodigy. But defending Daft Punk? Wtf! They don't even make their own music, they just use the resamples, add robotic voices and call it a day!
When you sample a song and fix a few bars into a loop you are changing the context of it completely. Daft Punk are fucking amazing.
Daft punk did what modern musicans do now just in an old way. U can say they are probably some of the first's. Thats what music is all about. Making it better, remixing it and changing it to new heights of expectation.:) DAFT PUNK FOR LIFE!
@Blabersmakavitch Exactly, what they do is creative in its own way and totally legit.
if you guys just bought the cd, you could see they wrote down the song where they got their samples from in the booklet
You do realize that they are a funk/electric group.
That pulls inspiration from all of these people and more.
Its not surprising to see they sampled all these funk bands to make funk/electric music.
I think you should all watch the 'Copyright Criminals Documentary' it goes into full detail about sampling, from multiple points of view, then you lot can argue about if its right or wrong, me i'm all for sampling, as long as its used in a creative manor then its great, Ill have to admit though while i do love Daft Punk, I wasn't expecting entire 4 beat bars of samples from original artists/bands, i was only expecting a 1 beat hit, or a vocal melody, mixed with other instrumental pieces. :/
Just because they are samples doesn't diminsh the songs, there is no doubt that Daft Punk can write good songs and come up with awesome sounds, they also just use other peoples sounds to create sound. Most of the above are fairly unknown songs and they all did it legally. What is much worse is taking a hit for example "you spin me right round" then bastardising it ala Flo Rida, thats just cashin in on a hit rather then creative sources of sounds and loops
Anthony and the iimperials wasnt expected that one at all
yeah but it doesn't take much to spot these samples, look at the small print about all the songs, it's right there o.O i foudn it out yet i still love all their music, if you think about it this way, they are breathing new life into old music.
DUDE !
THEY ARE DJ!
OF COURSE THEY DO THAT!!
@Goldbloodeddragon right the sampling aint hard .. but its hard to find the right sample and see the potential in em !
@Veimos
If you mean Daft Punk's fans are letting them down, then yeah, I agree.
its funny cause by them sampling these songs, we now know about the artists they sampled, otherwise i wouldn't have known they existed...sampling ftw
wow they're so talented. . .
