    For those who don't know, Daft Punk's music videos are a movie they had made. These animated videos/movie was created by the same people who made the cult classic anime Captain Harlock and movies like Galaxy Express 999. There were other animated series by them as well. I thought it was amazing that these animators were still creating and that Daft Punk got them to make their music video movie for them.

      I get ya but techno was used as a catchall outside the dance music world. And pre-internet, people just used the catchiest sounding name to describe this music. I somehow heard the term techno before anything else back in the days and would probably have used that term incorrectly to describe these. Not like anyone here will pick out a richie hawtin track. Think of it as a gateway term, those who will dig will find the real stuff... doesn't help that techno snobs are the most particular kinds of fans.

      I am surprised they are not using more resources to to be a little more accurate. It’s more on the producers of this show not the guests to be a just a “wee bit “more informed. These are easily classified as “not” techno. At least they didn’t put House music in the title!
      I grew up very poor without access to any resources until I was in my early 20’s(2000’s). I used to group music together into wrong genres. It made it harder to figure out how to find what I liked (especially in the age of cds 😂). Also, I was so embarrassed to talk about music in general. _(┐「ε:)_ ….halp……Now at 40, living in Chicago , surrounded by resident DJs….a DJ saved my life…..So my music education has finally leveled up!

    For those interested: The video for 'Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger' by Daft Punk is part of a feature length animated movie they released called: 'Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem'. The movie has no spoken dialog, instead the audio is all songs from the Daft Punk album 'Discovery' in order, making the movie basically a music video for an album. So if you liked the clip, give the movie a try, because it also has a fun story to tell.

    "all these songs start the same" I just want to clarify for anyone who doesn't know: that's for DJing. the similarity at the end and beginning of the track is so you can match beats easier between songs and is often a courtesy by electronic music creators (producers) for the dance floor

    While Americans were hearing only country, pop, hip hop and R&B, the Europeans were dancing on heavy electronic house/techno sounds. For us ravers, this kind of music was way to commercial.
    Although it started in the 80s, in the 90s those little Belgians, together with the Germans, pumped so many crazy hard techno and trance records in to the world that roofs of clubs flying off. Not to mention the countless legendary clubs that Belgium had in those days, Dutch, German, French and uk folks came over to dance here.
    In the 2000 whe had a lot of Belgian Euro dance bands, like Silver, Milk Ink, Mackenzie ft. Jessy , Lasgo, Zipora, Astroline... To many to mention.

      We had raves that started at 3am in abandoned warehouses (that would get raided by police at times)... you just aren't aware of life here in the US back then... the songs in the video were more dance club music(maybe with rave influence)...
      To get an idea of what we heard, if you're interested:
      Autechre ~ "Lowride"
      Moby ~ Porcelain
      The Prodigy ~ "Weather Experience"
      Lustral ~ Everytime (Red Jerry Mix)
      DJ Santana ~ Take Me Away
      Tony Allen - Take Me Higher
      Lustral ~ Everytime I close my eyes, I see your face (multiple remixes of this is good)
      DJ Laz ~ Red Alert
      We had a lot of trip-hop, jungle, ambient, et cetera.. DJ's in local scenes (not international scenes).

    They play them today because the late 90's/00's was lilterally the pinnacle of UK/Euro Dance Culture, practically everything I hear today is sampled from back in the day. Unfortunately you can listen to the music but you will never experience the rave scene like we had it, The music, the lights, the atmosphere. When the rave ended, everyone would meet up at the service station on the motorway and we would just carry on the party. Fast cars, loud music, everyone loved up and having a great time, really miss those days!

    Funny story about The Vengaboys. The Vengaboys is a Dutch act that was put together by two Dutch music producers, one of them who at the time was also a Veejay on the Dutch music channel TMF (The Music Factory) and yet no one in The Netherlands knew that for years until 1998 when they released their biggest hit We Like to Party. Before that Dutch people thought they were from Brazil because that's what the two producers wanted the audience to think and why members of the group whenever they were interviewed by Dutch media never spoke Dutch until it was finally revealed in 1998 that most of the members could speak Dutch, including Kim Sasabone who is the lead singer of the group. They're literally the most successful Dutch group of all time, beating 2Unlimited and yet for years people thought the group was Brazilian

    "I've never heard this version"
    It's the actual song. Wow.
    Daft Punk should reform just on principle and fix this. :D

      As much as i agree, Daft Punk's music was mostly conducted of samples. So people in the music industry kind of fed off of that.

      The Daft Punk song is based on a sample of a song by Edwin Birdsong

    I think it’s encouraging that they immediately knew Sandstorm and late 90s/early ‘00s Daft Punk within like two bars and it made them want to move.
    Remember that most people we ask from Millennial and GenX can’t name the tracks either. 😊
    Before we elder Millennials get super cranky and weep for the future, remember that this was us like 20 years ago. We just didn’t have UA-cam. Or really the internet. And when we were their age we had to wait 20 hours to download a track on Napster.
    They seem like good kids and they respect their “EDM” roots - even if they can’t name them.
    The one dude also *correctly* identified the classic 4 on the floor beat as quintessential techno. And one of them knew Eiffel 65 was Italian! I didn’t even know that until like 2 years ago.
    I enjoyed this. Rock on, children!

    sooo, Daft punk Music video ... not just a music video. It's a part of an animated musical science fiction film called "Interstella 7777" with no dialogue at all, only music :)
