Free Music Notes for Homework
Free Music Review: Intoxicating
Hit: 5 Stars
How do Daft Punk do it? In all honesty, this should not work for me. It's filled with beats that every single jock loves to imitate (badly), it's loop the loops (Around The World says the title at least 100 times), it's long. The beats kind of remind me of ramped up Darude beats, the cha cha slide (although that song is fun, you have to admit), and the vengaboys, yeesh. Daft Punk, pre-notionally, are destined to crash and burn.
But they don't crash and burn. They _______ soar over it. Not many beats on here pulse through my body this easily. They hit hard like a heart beat. I can feel them running through me like blood. And they all aren't just uhn tiss uhn tiss uhn tiss like most of the morons at my school do. They apply a bit of finese, yet still be dancy as ______. No , I don't mean ANYTHING like Aphex Twin, Amon Tobin, Venetian Snares (just try keeping up with Snares), or even Prodigy. Rather,I think there are plenty of changes, although there really aren't any big ones. It's VERY subtle in change. That's okay, because they never will bore me, because the beats on here stretch. And they all don't follow the exact same pattern. It's the grooving, pulverizing beats and a bit of variety that make it rise above the other club _______.
Oh, and the samples. Thank _______ god that they don't feature the godawful annoying syhtns that plagues all of the hardcore techno ____, the lame, boring noises of Darude like garbage, and of course, the horrifying europop trash. No, they do better. It mostly focuses on the beats, and you'll find some deriative stuff, but just have a look at things such as Daftendirekt, with it's surpisngly addicting voice. Waterfalls, and the only song that can make the awful sound of hardcore and make it good (or at least it sounds like it). Don't get it for that. Daft Punk are more concerned with the beat. Though they know the latter is important too. So it all works out. Only the last two seven minute songs (both are HORRIBLE) suffer.
Music is life and cleanses the soul (or makes it more evil, heh). Music can also entertain you. I love doing both (Though I lean toward the first one). You can't expect too much of it. It's dance music. And I can't get enough of it.

Homework Poster
EU LP pressing.After rocking the suburbs with the infectious and persistent "Da Funk" (with its amusingly pointless Spike Jonze video), Gallic pranksters Daft Punk unleashed Homework, an album that combined everything good about house music with everything bad about French pop and changed the face of dance music in the process. The sound of production duo Thomas Bangalter and Guy Manuel de Homem is a raw and dirty collage of cheap drum machines (wired for maximum swing) welded to endless filtered loops and embellished with everything from guitars to talk-box vocals. The beats are lifted straight from the Chicago House textbook, but the simple bass lines and catchy hooks make a listenable pop song from what would normally be a stripped-down DJ tool. Uncompromising yet totally accessible. --Matthew Corwine
