I love Daft Punk so much. I hate that I never got a chance to see them live. I have the album Alive 2007 on repeat right now. (I say earlier stuff in the title because I didn’t care for the album Random Access Memories.)
Who else would you recommend I listen to? Especially if they’re still producing music. I love their loopy, sampled sound. Any other bands do something similar? Identical isn’t necessary, adjacent is fine.
Not sure I’d phrase it that way but you’d probably like:
Wax Tailor
Ratatat
Justice
Flying Lotus
Paza Rahm
Two Fingers
Claude VonStroke
Xploding PlastiX
Edit:
I’ll throw in Caravan Palace and Parov Stellar if you like electroswing
Justice, no contest. Watch the full ‘Iris - A space opera’ live concert on YouTube and you’ll understand why.
Rumor is, any time two Frenchmen are in a room with a keyboard, there is a small chance that the next electronic duo will form from the interaction.
Until then, it’s probably Justice and Ratatat. Check out Marc Rebillet, too. The rare “one-man electronic duo.”
Marc Rebillet
The legend. I mean he’s fun for a while but after that while you start to see patterns and it kind of got old for me.
True, I don’t listen to him for several days in a row like I do with Justice or Daft Punk. But I love him in bite-sized pieces, and tracks like Your New Morning Alarm make me smile every time.
I saw him at Bonnaroo a couple years ago and everyone in the crowd was having such a good time. At one point, he’s running around on stage in his bathrobe (of course), and his robe got snagged on something. So he just took it off, and was running around in his underwear yelling, “SOMEONE GET ME A ROBE! SOMEONE GET ME A GOD DAMN ROBE!” Then he made a song out of it.
You mean who is the next genre defining band combining modern electonica and classic Disco funk into bona-fide club bangers?
Dunno… lemme know when you figure it out tho
