Daft Punk Tribute: Appetizer #1: Oh Yeah (Soulwax edit)

I’m currently working on a set of Daft Punk tribute mixes, my pick for band of the last century. Before I post any of the mixes, I’d like to give everyone some appetizers to get your ear drums ready.

For starters, here’s an edit most people don’t know about. This edit by Soulwax, for the Daft Punk track “Oh Yeah,” proves that they truly know their music. I can’t find a date on when this track was done, but knowing Soulwax, it was probably created well before the craze of super mash ups brought on by people like Girltalk. There are so many samples going on in this song. It’s such a treat to listen to. It makes you just want to sit there and try to name them all!

I’m a huge fan of samples and the art of sampling music. Daft Punk really turned the concept of sampling into a true art form. Their samples are so clean and not instantly recognizable, they are truly geniuses on par with The Avalanches. As I start posting the mixes, I’ll express my love for Daft Punk and the art of sampling that they embody. For now, get busy to this Soulwax edit!
