incredible job. thank you for making this available. absolutely worth the $$
u are the best
better not hear anyone ever say “sampling is lazy” again 💀
sampling is lazy
@@muffinconsumer4431😱😱😱😱😱😱🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬😭😭😭😭🥺🥺🥺🥺😨😨😨😾😾😾😾🫃🫃🫃🫃
Sampling isn't lazy, but there is lazy sampling. Like when you take the base sample and do nothing with it except maybe one or two effects.
For example:
- Creative Sampling: Face to Face, Praise You, Frontier Psychiatrist
- Lazy Sampling: I'm Good, Feel This Moment, Whatcha Say
My sister said this to me like half an hour ago
Just because you're original doesn't mean you're good, by that logic, angelic 2 the core would be the greatest thing ever made.
The fact that it took 22 years for all the samples in Face To Face to get found really is a testament to Daft Punk's talent and skills in sampling. Great work to everyone who found the samples!
But is that really all of them? We sure there isn't some hidden .01 second sample somewhere? I can see them doing that.
Todd Edwards as well.
@mikemoss6045 that could be true but as one that help try to find some of these and found one (and hopefully) last sample in the 22 almost 23 years the album been out is incredible. If another search happens cause of another 1 sec sample it would be hard to find and would last almost forever
How is that a testament to their skill?
@yahallobenjamin2354 I hope that I'm not explaining this to someone who will just discard the notion entirely; but consider what it is they're actually doing here. They aren't just copying a section of a song and pasting it with no change. They're pulling apart the pieces of existing art, reimagining, altering and re-expressing those pieces in a new form, and building an entirely *new* vision. Consider the way they might make a new melody by chopping up and reorganizing an old one they've sampled. If the new melody is just a lazy copy of the old one, then are we to consider only the invention of that specific instruments sound to be creative, with all future creations with the instrument being mere copies? No, that would be ridiculous - learning to build a fundamentally unique song from the altered pieces of other songs isnt copy pasting, it's using *music itself* as an instrument with which to create new music.
All forms of art are created with influences founded in the existing art that artist has experienced; art is never made in a vacuum devoid of comprehension of other art, and this is similar! Art inspires art; and the music they draw from has inspired new music into being the same as any other artist being inspired.
"Face to face now" ❌ "Christopher Ro-" ✅
The only case where a music copyright claim is a source of pride
Were they actually insane for using this many samples? Did they choose random songs from albums they had and try to make songs out of the songs they chose? It just blows my mind
Yess basically they sampled short parts of various records into their sampler (which was probably the Ensoniq ASR10), tuned them all to the same key and cut them all into bits to create the final arrangement. Todd Edwards says in a livestream that Thomas was the one who sat on the keyboard and fine-tuned everything.
@@acid4breakfast573link to live stream?
@@acid4breakfast573More likely the SP1200
So what does the other guy do?
i mean... thats what a disc jockey does. they buy a bunch of vinyls from dusty record shops and stitch together stuff
"Discovery", Beastie Boys' "Paul's Boutique" DJ Shadow's "Entroducing", and Dilla's, "Donuts" are the pinnacle of how good sampling can be.
Since I left you by the avalanches is peak plunderphonics
@@em_y1229 Forgot to add that to the list, I concur!
Everyone better be thanking Todd Edwards in here cause he's the one that chops samples like this. He was called back to make "Fragments of Time" for the band as well.
HOW IN THE HOLY F*CK did you manage to substract ALL these details so meticulously?!? I don't know if people ACTUALLY realise the knowledge, the ear to details, the skill, etc this takes to put this all together (or disdect would be a better word maybe). I don't think you even realise yourself what your skill level is. And huge props to Daft Punk of course for imagining this out of thin air and thousands of old school music memories. Cheers man! EXCELLENT JOB
it was actually a group of people, a community that meticulously took time and found each individual sample, none of it was super easy-
Also Todd Edwards posted a video showing al the songs they used for the song. Still very impressive though
The House at Pooh Corner sample sends me every time.
Mr Burger
i wanted to say the same thing
How the fuck did they hear "face to face" from that
For years I had heard this song and had no idea he was saying "Christopher Robin"
So you’re telling me every time I heard “face to face” said it was actually Kenny Loggins saying “Christopher” what the heck man
Wow the "Just a foot long" lyric was just "Christopher Robin" all along
i always thought it said "its the first time"
ive always heard "its the third line"
This video demostrates that Face To Face is the best Track of all House music
Maybee not the best but surely the most complicated.
Don't misunderstand me. I love Face to Face.
@@RetroniOSimo the best
@@RetroniOSaye, music like all art is fully subjective and opinion based, not everyone’s gonna like or dislike the same things
The best ever in my opinion
@@RetroniOS yeah, i mean it is very complex, like Magic Touch by Romos or Pop Culture by Madeon
you were the only one able to replicate the track exactly like the original track, it proves that I have to have a large random music bank to make music like this.
I'm glad you think so. Thank you ✌️
Head to discogs and venture through random songs.
no its pretty off in a few parts
@@peoplepersonYeah, there's supposed to be a 16th-note shuffle on those Firefall samples, but these are all chopped to the grid on solid 16th-notes instead
the final chapter of a hunt that took us so long, the final chapter of daft punk sample hunting (unless burnin' has another sample? 🧐), mate your first face to face video got me interested in the song and now it comes full circle
omg coldplay pfp
@@nyaKona one of the rare albums I got day-one, I liked some tracks but I especially loved the aesthetic
3:30
no shot burnin doesn't have another sample, that synth sound playing throughout sounds a lot like a sample
A masterclass of music production, to have all these samples used and for the song to still sound cohesive is insane! To think this was done in 2000 too!
It was *released in 2000, but the track itself could have been produced as early as 1998 and this was also done on hardware that was up to (and over) a decade old at that time
Still wondering if they used a drum machine or a daw?
@@Aia_ttsd Both. They had several drum machines and they had MicroLogic on a Mac. They also made use of their samplers, which were routed through one of two sequencers they had named in their gear list.
Because of the samples used, the order in which they were used and the creativity, I consider this song a masterpiece on the entire Discovery album.
Never knew why I liked this song so much. Guess it was a sampling work of art.
Credit to Todd Edwards for the sampling and sample chopping.
2:58 it took me until here to realize the song did not start with all 12 of those samples playing on top of each other at the same time and you were just showing the section of the song the sample was used from, and then where it was used 😂
I was just absolutely astounded at first that they managed to play 10 songs on top of each other with minor edits and make it sound good (i havent heard the daft punk song in a long time so i dont remember how it starts. only the hooks)
live reacting because if they found the chase sample i'll be so happy
yeah we all know evil woman is in it
shit this is a great recreation
HOLY SHIT THE CHASE SAMPLE HOLY SHIT THE CHASE SAMPLE
OH MY GOD THEY ACTUALLY FOUND IT!!!!! Wow i cant bleive it was alan parsons, the project knew abt that album's involvement so early too i cant believe it eluded everyone for so long
yeah the sample was found like almost a year ago, i guess by accident, mike flangerus found it
What’s the ‘chase’ sample?
@@LondonsBestEats3:57
@@AwesomeYears ha, so it was "Shadows" - not "Chase"
The use of sampled percussion for such a simple pattern they could’ve used a 707 or linn drums on speaks to their respect for entirely human made music, and that specific sample being so hard to replicate and how long it took to identify speaks to just how important and unique live instrumentation is
Back in 97 when I was 10, I saved up whatever money I got to buy Homework. After all these years and many ablums later, it still blows my mind how great they are/were. One of the best artists of all time
1:46 so the "chase" sound that a lot of people said it was one of the hardest sample to find it was too in Old and Wise? Wow
Wow. These guys are the gift that keeps on giving.
My god, that zip disk breakdown was nuts.
I can't wait for this! I don't have any other choice but to wait though
Now the goal is to find out how the samples were processed to match the daft punk cut
been waiting for this video to drop, absolutely wonderful.
Todd Edwards is a madman for this. (he definitely done the sample cutting, i know his style when it comes to that)
He said in the recent video that it was Thomas on the keyboard (which was hooked up to the sampler) and that Thomas did all the fine-tuning to the samples
Well sampling and production usually is Thomas
@@kwiky5643 Probably depends on the project. Thomas says there's practically no ego involved, he and Guy-Man just kind of do whatever and work around the material they've got. Or at least the past tense, since now they're done as Daft Punk
Insane work! Thanks for the excellent demonstration.
WOWWWWW incredible video! the recreation sounds exact!
Fantastic work, kudos to you!
Amazing! That's how they created it. It's so interesting all of samples that they took for Face to Face. It's the same song. Good job!
I like the flute sample the best. This was such a subtle addition.
Wow, such incredible work! 👏 😎
This is incredible work.. great job…
never thought i’d see the day… great work man
Even the beat was sampled?? Damn, honestly one of the best songs in Daft Punk's discography
Bro. Thanks sooooo much for this!
I love most of these songs and I'm surprised I never noticed them sampled in this song.
Can't believe we finally made it❤
One word. incredible!!!
Smooth transition to the original in the end, I didn't even notice.
So well done man!
My life will never be the same again
My favourite off all, Face to Face
amazing video congrats
this is absolutely genius
beautiful. ❤
I am happy to be the witness of this research that took this long. Genuinely, this might be not the most important event on the planet Earth but it is nonetheless an important event for musicians and sample hunters
So perfect 🥺❤️
what were they thinking?! and in 1998, too!
this song was probably one of the last finished tbh, most likely in like 1999/2000
And you can still show these samples to ppl and some mfs will still complain abt it, even while knowing how sampling goes nowdays 💀
Absolute madlads
So intricate with the assistance of Todd 'Jesus' Edwards!
Back in the infancy days, many of these portions remained in obscurity for years.
Amazing.
BUEN TRABAJO
I hope the windows chord sound is finally included
3:53 no it's still not included.
Windows chord sound?
@@tuanbe I haven't heard or read that windows chimes or whatever are related. It is not included because it is not a confirmed sample, srry.
@@lepnkI just cannot un-hear that Microsoft Windows system sample around 0:43-0:44 in the original version. Maybe it's just my imagination.
@@tuanbe I hear the windows sound in the beginning of Touch for some odd reason
PERFECT.
ESTO ES INCREÍBLE
astonishing
love this :)
Panik... c est incroyable!
they were crazy
This is insane
the firefall chop needs a lil more swing + the first pitched down needs to be pitched up one more. other than that everything else is spot on!!
Yeah there's a few pitches slightly off, couple cents here and there too
Fuxking amazing
They finally found them all o7
I was wondering why I heard a flute in the background and decided to look this up... To say that I'm dumbfounded is an understatement
Crazy
This has to be one of the best uses of sampling. Definitely top 5 even if you don't like Daft Punk
This is the best use of sampling in music history. Especially because the final outcome is so good.
Wooo got damn!!! Shout out to Todd the God Edwards!
mission passed
It’s practically the “Spitting Sound” of the original.
CHRISTOPHER ROB-
So PHAT!
es una locura
it's finally complete
AFTER 22 YEARS
also, does high life organ intro is a sample????
Did you actually figure out the drums? Nobody’s been able to make them sound like the original
czcams.com/users/shortsVKWsj41XZpM?feature=share
The answer is here
The answer is here. The producer came out to unveil these samples
@@user-jr3zr2mp9ci know about the sample, im asking if he actually was able to recreate the sound of the drum as it is in the song
@@takumi6491 oh mb
It sounds right to me
i am very excited for this
aren't we all at samplecord haha
Agreed
yep we are all
hello me too
dude thank you so much! I really want to learn this style of sampling so this will be excellent study material! Would anyone have other recommendations to learn more of Todd Edwards style of sampling?
It's referred to as "micro-sampling" so if you're looking for other examples, just use this term and you'll be sure to find MANY examples. Pop Culture by Madeon is a good example, but there are a lot more
@@pc_buildyb0i935 thanks so much!! i'll look into that!
Isso é coisa de maluco bixo pqp
Perfection!! ❤
Like wow
what would it sound like if all of the samples were the full uncut original songs, all stacked up on top of each other?
What the eq and compressor setting for the Jisco Dazz?
The last flute sample is a bit offtempo but this whole thing is genius
Hey man that is awesome!! Honestly blown away by Daft Punk/Todd Edwards and your work to put the samples together. Can you please upload a YT vid of the song playing from start to finish because hearing it in raw form sounds really good. Do you have any spotify or soundcloud where you've uploaded an mp3 version? I've never used Ableton so can't download the Ableton file to listen to it's full audio
finally
SUUUUPER
"Chase."
3:31 ngl the recreation sounds better then the original. I dont know why. Theres just some kinda of extra energy in the recreation that isnt in the original
Vive la France 🇨🇵
gahhhhhh damnmnnnn
At last
How come the speed shifts at the start of each song?
Pitch automation on Ableton.
Hahahahaha this is sick
Was there any process to finding them or did you just have to, pun intended ‘get lucky’?
I didn't find em. There is a discord server with a lot of people involved in sample search :)
Not to sound like an amateur or anything but how did you do this? What program are you using?
Ableton Live, but you can use any other program like it.
