NOW THIS IS A DISCO!!! DISCOVERY "DAFT PUNK" Full Album Reaction/Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 июн 2024
- Random Access Memories by Daft Punk is one of my favourite albums of all time and it feels wrong that I have not sat down to listen to this monumental piece by the French Duo. This week we sat down with the electronic album "Discovery" which begins with the monster dance hit "One More Time" Truth be told I was feeling a bit flat the week I recorded this vid so to chuck this one on at the end of the day was just the spark I needed to shift my perspective. Albums like this remind me of the power of music.
My name is Jack and I love music, in particular Hip Hop, I decided to make this channel as a way to engage with other music lovers and because there doesn't seem to be a lot of reaction channels on RUclips...My goal has always been to be open to all types of music regardless of my love of Hip Hop, on this channel you can expect a rich array of genres. If you're keen to join me on my music journey then please subscribe, if you ever want to give your thoughts on an album or song that I have reacted to, then please do. I want this channel to be a community and if you love music of any genre then welcome!!!

Discovery = Disco Very. And the song Veridis Quo = Very Disco
That flute sound in Face to Face haunted fans for years because no one could find the sample until like a year ago, and the last sample was found a few months ago. Also the singer is Todd Edwards who also sings Fragments of Time from Random Access Memories.
That’s so mad! I thought he sounded familiar !!
@@cavemanjackTodd also is one of the pioneers of UK garage and his impact on the scene can’t be understated. It’s so cool how he sings as well, saw him live the other week and he went from playing garage tunes straight to singing Face to Face 😍😍😍
Also the sweetest man in the world
Wow I never noticed that, thats actually so dope
There's like a 12yr old RUclips vid showing the flute sample. Maybe it was forgotten or lost/'removed from YT, but it's been known for over a decade.

If you aren't aware, Daft Punk produced an animated film called "Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem" which basically acts as a full length music video for Discovery. It is an awesome experience in its own right!
That sounds so mad!!!
dude you gotta watch it, it adds another dimension and makes something thats already an masterpiece fuse with another masterpiiece. Its like goku and vegeta fusing.@@cavemanjack
I never listened to full album, but I've seen that anime multiple times
@@3axapTv If you watched the anime, you've listened to the full album
The visual for the movie is made by the mangaka who made harlock/herlock wich i think is a really cool detail
Just to show the amount of samples in this whole album, face to face has 70 samples in that song alone. It’s crazy! Glad you liked the album 👌🏻
Mannnnn that’s actually wild
@@cavemanjack There are some really great sample breakdowns of this album on here that you might appreciate. Check this one out for example: ruclips.net/video/5AqHSvR9bqs/видео.html
Face To Face only has 20 samples.
That 70 number is how many samples were collected by Daft Punk and Todd Edwards.
No it doesn’t lol
In 5 years time the number will be 140 based on this trajectory
I personally think this is their best album and one of the masterpieces of the genre, not a single bad track. Also second that person who recommended to watch Interstella 5555, it's a fabulous companion piece to this album and the animation in it is incredible.
Can't decide what I love more, your sincere and honest thoughts on incredible music or your moves as you vibe 😅😎 for real tho you're sound and I'm loving the channel!
Thank you for the kind words Matt
Hahah I do love a good dance that’s for sure
Appreciate you joining the community!
Now that you're familiarized with 2000s french touch, you should try the album Cross from Justice. You'll find elements similar to Daft Punk's style but with more agression, rock-metal vibes sometimes.
Sounds awesome ! Thank you for the recommendation!!!
Can't recommend this one enough @@cavemanjack Love the content man, keep it up!
Was literally just listening to that album, can confirm it goes crazy
@@cavemanjack It's one of my fav albums of all time, can't recommend it enough!! Barely any first time reactions to it on youtube as well.
I support this, all justice discography is incredible, i also recommend Sebastien Tellier "sexuality"(produced by daft punk's half, guy-man), such a great album and artist and sadly there's no much reactions or content about it.
Starts singing Verdis Quo like its a Damon Albarn song.
😂😂😂
Fun fact: Verdis Quo is not only Latin for "To what purpose?" It's also a clever wordplay for "Very Disco".
GORILLAZ
I think one of the most underrated, under-mentioned parts of One More Time is how they leave the breath in between each vocal cut, makes it sound more like a robot, because humans cant take breaths while singing lol.... I always loved their decision to leave those in.
totally agree
The vocal overlapping is moreso responsible for the feel, rather than just the breaths themselves. The robotic-ness is mainly coming from the AutoTune and the overlapping vocal lines - each line was recorded separately, so that they could be overlapped. For example, at 3:09, that first "One More Time!" call has an exhale at the end of it, but the "we're" in "we're gonna celebrate" happens at exactly the same time as the exhale does, which is the part that isn't humanly possible. Ditto for both "Oh yeah", "alright" and "don't stop the dancing".
You also hear it for the last 32 bars of the track, with the "One More Time" line overlayed with the "music" from "music's got me feeling so free".
Interesting sidenote, there's also a dotted eighth-note delay and a phaser, but both are set pretty low in the mix.
Jack, you for sure need to check out Homework and Human After All. Either as a video or on your own time, purely so you're prepped for the masterpiece that is Alive 2007. Not enough people on RUclips have reacted to their live album, and it's just a celebration of the first three albums mashed together in the best way possible.
Hell yeah! That sounds awesome
I would love to react to Alive 2007 at some point!!
@@cavemanjackReally it is. Alive 2007 is orgasmic to say the least, it is such a magical album. When you hear all the albums that came before and see all the songs being mashed up in such a new and genius way really changes your perspective on the original songs. It really is a legendary record.
But please listen to Homework, it is a amazing album and Human After All is also great and way more experimental. But please listen to all of those before Alive.
I have been a huge Daft Punk fan since this album came out and it made me find Homework and then of course I was immediately on top of Alive 2007 well before that live album dropped. I had the Coachella set downloaded IMMEDIATELY. All that said I still think my favorite song of theirs all time is still Something About Us. It is just pure perfection IMO.
legendary album
So much fun
The style of sampling in Face To Face is largely the work of Todd Edwards, who popularized that style of chopping up bits of various songs to create new melodies.
Face To Face features twenty unique samples, some of which were only discovered recently.
I made a recreation of the song and uploaded it to my channel if you wanna see.

wow that's actually awesome, so many samples I actually so amazed, I gotta check out your vid!
@@cavemanjack I've uploaded two; go with the one from today.
Love how much you're diggin' it, really shows in crescendolls particularly. Love it
What an awesome reaction video. I really liked it. Too long wasn't my favourite at first either, but now it's one of my go-to tracks when i listen to this album. Timeless and so enjoyable
It's funny you mention it's like they gave Julian Casablancas a really robotic voice - because they literally had him sing into a vocoder for the song "Instant Crush" on their last album, "Random Access Memories".
Instant Crush is using a harmonizer, not a vocoder
@@pc_buildyb0i935 it's been almost eleven years. It's well-established by now that it's a vocoder.
@@mulrich It's well established that people say it's a vocoder. So is the confusion between AutoTune, vocoders, harmonizers, and talk boxes. But I've heard the track, and I have both a harmonizer and a vocoder in my equipment rack.
They're using a harmonizer on Casablanca. It would make no sense to credit him as a vocalist, because vocoders don't capture modulator timbre, just carrier timbre. There'd be no reason to use Casablancas on the vocals because it only takes the spectral shifting (specifically pronunciation of vowels and consonants) of the modulator and no other characteristics. If it was a vocoder, Daft Punk may as well have done it themselves.
@@pc_buildyb0i935 you can sing into a vocoder, which is what was done for "Instant Crush". There's also literally an example of Pharrell Williams doing it as a test for "Lose Yourself to Dance" in the extras for the 10th anniversary edition of RAM.
"Among the most consistent users of the vocoder in emulating the human voice are Daft Punk, who have used this instrument from their first album Homework (1997) to their latest work Random Access Memories (2013) and consider the convergence of technological and human voice "the identity of their musical project". For instance, the lyrics of "Around the World" (1997) are integrally vocoder-processed, "Get Lucky" (2013) features a mix of natural and processed human voices, and "Instant Crush" (2013) features Julian Casablancas singing into a vocoder."
@@pc_buildyb0i935 Julian literally says it's a vocoder in the very first Memory Tapes video from eleven months ago.
You should react to Alive 2007 if you've never listened to it before. Especially if you wished to see Daft Punk live.
Hell yeah I would love to do that
never clicked so fast
Hahahah hell yeah !!!
Man, awesome video! Thank you :)
Hearing Daft Punk never fails to put a smile on my face (even when it comes to their more melancholic tracks), and combined with _your_ energy this video was like a double serving of good vibes
had so much fun on this one, easily one of my fav reactions on the channel
love your analysis of superheroes definitely one pf my favorite daft punk songs of all time
one of the best albums oat without a doubt. the interstella 5555 movie adds so much to the experience. also checkout the alive 2007 set maybe after listening to human after all! awesome performance
imagine hearing this first time .... i grew up listening these songs for over 100 times
one of my favorites albums of all time. cant even decide on a top 3
Such a legendary project
loved this reaction, definitely earned a sub. amazing video bro!
Thank you legend !
the track Nightvision is the sound i always thought i will hear when im dying back i when i was a kid
Harder Better uses sampling so effectively, people forget it’s a sample
Well... The music is sampled, but not the lyrics.
All of the tracks on this album use samples, though.
@@mulrich Nightvision, Something About Us and Short Circuit don't use any (song) samples.
@@pc_buildyb0i935 according to the liner notes, you are correct.
I would love Turn on the Bright Lights next
I second this
Reminds me of hanging out in my room or my friends rooms in high school. Back when most people still had phone line internet!! 😂
Something about us is the most heartfelt song on the album. A few more listens and you’ll sink into it more. Doesn’t have the impact or snap of the other tracks. An awesome album overall.
Another one from Adam Scott, love from Portugal
So may I steal or purchase those headphones from you jk never seen that before with not touching of the crown design😊
Dude.. you really have to consider listening to Daft Punk's Alive 2007 Album. Youll get blown away how far they can go with their own music. I promise you youll have a BLAST listening to that album. I SWEAR!
Hey dude, I wonder if you'd be down to react to some crazy underground music. My recommendation would be "The Mixtape Album" by Dolphin. It covers a variety of different sounds, is under 1 hour and has some funny skits between all the tracks, probably the most digestible album from this genre I can think of for someone to react to.
Genre-wise, you'd be looking at hardcore, breakbeat, rave and jungle, as well as some techno & trance, but paired with lots of hip hop influence. Would love to see you react to something off-the-wall like that.
Much love
Man that sounds fun!
I’ve got a huge list of stuff to check out, but I’m always keen to add things to my list
Appreciate you sharing your recommendation
Suprised you havent heard this one
Took me way to long to stop and check it out !
So glad I finally did
"Julian Casablancas with a robotic voice"
....ooooooh boy, it's time you were introduced to The Voidz. You'll find exactly what you were describing.
Human Sadness, TET 2.0, ALieNNatioN, Dare I Care, Alien Crime Lord, etc.
Enjoy.
You should do Heaven or Las vegas by the Cocteau twins next
Don’t think it’d make for a great reaction, but Caribou’s Start Breaking My Heart is wonderful casual electronic listening
Stereolab’s Dots and Loops would make for a pretty cool reaction, another French electronic artist, there - Mum’s Yesterday Was Dramatic - Today Is Okay is also absolutely gorgeous
Keep it up man!
Added! Thank you !!
hm, have you listenned to Nights out by Metronomy already? c:
(I loved veridis quo and nightvisions when I was a kid..)
You should react to HOMEWORK! that album is pure fire 🔥
Here for the all-go-rhythm
Alive 2007
Interstellar5555
Homework!
Hey man, check out "left is right" by troyboi. 10/10 trap album
French pride, best group forever
Yayyyyyy ヽ(⌐■_■)ノ♪♬
Hi! I am asking you too check out SLEEP PARTY PEOPLE. I have been changed by his band....🐰
Gotta add to my list !!
Now do Homework
It’s on the list for sure !
Shit im old if this is new to you
Discovery is one of my favourite albums but I wish Too Long wasnt on it. Its shit.
Hard disagree
If you let yourself go to the album and music it’s actually a good track. Just let yourself sink into it and move.
I thinks it’s a good finally to the album personally.
overrated album, Homework is by far their best album
Gotta check out homework as well!
@@cavemanjack You should! But i'm not sure it's reaction material, it's a great album for clubs/raving though
Hard disagree, this album is so much more enjoyable to listen through.
@@EddTally for a pop fan yes, i'm more into trance/house than basic pop music
@@yannhollister9091sounds like a you problem then
day 1 of asking to listen to more arctic monkeys albums
