Join us on a journey through Daft Punk's first two albums as we analyze the iconic French House duo's beats. And we're not simply taking the original samples - we're rebuilding the rhythms from scratch to understand what made them tick in the first place! We also do a short cover of each song so you can hear the drums in context :)
Extra special thanks to / @jaelights for your feedback on the mixes!

Ones can only appreciate the effort you two put in this video 👏
Thank you so much :)
If only your baker had put as much work into his baguette as you did in just one beat pattern... that bread looks pretty disgusting! Bisous from Paris!
@@andreasvogel5186 - because it’s from Denmark
No thanks
Everything about this is great - the production value, the humor, and the easy to follow teaching style are all top notch.
you summarized it nicely. perfect channel.
Truly
I am like one minute in and already feeling like “this is why RUclips was invented….” Thanks so much for these videos ❤
I could listen for hours and hours of daft punk’s technical/musical analysis.
Thank you for this 🤝
1:20 remember friends: always keep in mind that a lot of the "musical geniuses" we know and love come from wealthy families and have connections already. they had the ability to not only realize their genius but show others. many don't get this opportunity ever!
There's truth to that, just look at Mozart :)
Taylor Swifts parents were loaded. Her father spent $130,000 buying shares in her first record label, as well as driving her all over the country.
also if music is your parents' job, they can't tell you music isn't a job so callously
Would that make it impossible to have a career in music?
As someone who wants to make EDM and someday play at major festivals, would that be impossible unless I had some kind of massive cash flow?
@@Roasty420 It's still very possible to have a career in music but your name may not be as marquee as you're expecting it to be. You may still need a job on the side, in or out of music. But you can still have a nice following and earnings. Not all of us can have banker parents that fly us in and out of Nashville for vocal coaching and studio time in our teens, eh?
As someone who has actually tried to get on Anjunabeats myself: keep making music because you like doing so, and keep at it because it will take years to get recognized. Don't shy away from those supporting you now just because you think a bigger, "better" crowd is on the horizon. Keep your eye on where you want to go but don't lose sight of the road right at your feet. And nobody expects to go viral so don't feel bad if you don't.
Man that piano part in Aerodynamic is soo good
I have a strong feel that piano parts and a lot of harmonies was predominantly written by Chilly Gonzales, so if you’d like some sorta similar feel I’d check his work he’s also a really funny guy.
My father is a great daftpunk fan and he loves the first albuns. This video made us happy, so thanks man!
Glad you two enjoyed it :)
My dad is a "no one is a musician because nobody is playing the guitar" kinda guy :(
Ugh... This makes me feel old, and also sad. You youngin's don't really get any seminal sounds anymore by actual artists. Now it's all algorithms or something produced in Switzerland for the masses. Much less creative freedom!
@@dc4825let’s put you on a computer with ableton and see what you can do. bet you couldn’t even turn on the ALgOrIthM, whatever that is. You can’t do a quarter of what daft punk did, let alone half. also, traditional artists still exist, grandpa.
as a french producer i can confirm that the french house kitchen section is exactly what i do daily
So glad we weren't that far off 😁
Miss Pikant absolutely slayed on this video. A masterclass in Daft Punk and one of the best produced music instruction videos on all of RUclips. A tremendous accomplishment. Magnifique!
She goes by The Apprentice 😊 and yes!
I agree, The Intern outdid herself on this one :)
I was wondering about the nail varnish :-)
I agree, this channel needs so much more exposure, so many people would be riveted to these videos if they could find them. Hope the RUclips algorithm does its work.
Worth the wait. Staggering work. If only I'd had access to this kind of education when I was young, delivered tastefully and stylishly, with charm and humour. Bravo.
Thank you so much :)
As a daft punk fan, this is the best video i've seen ever from the guys. Absolutely in love with the video dynamic, the styling, and all of the details that you put in. Keep going!
Thanks so much :) :)
Discovery is a real masterpiece… years later it’s absolutely modern. That’s interesting, your reproductions of homework are really good, but on discovery, it sounds very different from the original. The mastering was also really impressive…
This... This is art. This channel is everything is right in the world😫
Thank you Captain Pikant♥
I think I've said it before, and I'll say it again: you are an amazing teacher. This content is awesome.
Yes, my first encounter with Daft Punk was also Around the World and I can clearly remember as I stood in the room, mesmerized, staring at the screen and couldn't believe what I saw. It was amazing and I quickly learned the bands name with it. You recreated the songs but I still don't know what makes them good. They are just good. Still good after all these years.
If this videos would have been available when I was 17 and just getting into digital production... Thanks a lot Captain Pikant! You guys are a treasure in this world ❤️
Da Funk is definitely one of my all time favourite tracks (I remember the music video so well, that poor dog). The fact that it was what Daft Punk came out of the gates with is something else. The two of you are incredibly talented to do this. Not only the extreme dissecting of the tracks to uncover the elements and patterns but also the flawless playing of the musical elements! Hats off.
I absolutely have tears of joy in my eyes. Daft punk came into my life at exactly the right time, so long ago. I cannot thank you enough, Captain and the Intern. ❤️
Hi Michael, we're really glad you liked it :) Daft Punk also has a very special place in my heart!
I've had a terrible day in work, and this makes me feel better ♥
22:22 is absolutely fantastic...
Great stuff!!!
Thanks Florian :)
Sometimes I think about how long these must take to write and produce. But mostly I just watch and listen in awe. Brilliant 🙌🏼
Now think about how long the music took to conceive and execute
This is the most precise, well-crafted, talentfully played and shot music channel I've ever seen. That bread bit was absolutely genius.
This is a masterpiece. I adore the humor and the videography, but most of all how you can break the tracks down to the point they feel almost obvious without diminishing the appreciation for the complexity and genius it took to compose them. Also, that sandwich looked (and sounded) delicious!
10:21 is insane. How they manage to loop the simplest sounds and make it sound awesome
Another outstanding production from the best hands on RUclips.
So well done and informative, that I'll be signing up to your Patreon to help keep this awesome channel going.
Thanks so much, we really appreciate your support :)
You are like a tag team that solves the magic tricks of magicians! Fantastic value!

Instant sub, such production!! Captivating start to finish and really did the source material justice 👍👍👍
Once in a great while a video is so well done, so much on another level, that it literally brings me to tears. Your videos in general are easily among the best out there in multiple ways…but this was just next level…just wow. (Also, as a Hapax owner I really liked seeing it so prominently used. :) Can’t wait for part two!

Wonderfull video and production!
The video i have been waiting for so long!❤
As always high quality content! Awesome, keep doing it)
Amazing work, thanx for this.
This channel is insanely good. The production and effort is off the charts. May I suggest a video theme? I think it would be pretty could a video about Aphex Twin or a video of how about get into Synths and drums machines, a overall explanation on how to start doing eletronic music it would be great
Thank you! Those are very good suggestions ;)
I loved this! Well done on everything!
That was a blessing to watch. Keep it up. And i´m really looking forward to part 2.
Loving this video
