Music reviews of Homework
Music Review: Another record breaking(literally!) album.
Rating: 4 Stars
Daftendirekt-Like many of the songs on this album,it starts by fading from really really bad sound quality. This is a cool song and in my humble opinion.. 9/10
WDPK-Radio ad put in between Daftendirekt and Revolution 909. This really doesent have much to do with the album,unless it was really revealed on a radio station named WDPK. I like the back beat,though. It could be a full length song. But because of the length,8/10
Revolution 909-This song fades in from crappy sound quality (Again),you hear party sounds,a police siren,and a megaphone saying "Stop the music and go home.".And then,the music cranks and (finally!) loses the crappy sound quality,and goes into a full force house song. This song would be friggin awesome for you if your hobby is "Glowsticking". 9/10
Da Funk-Another house insturmental,but this is DP's launching pad,and it led to the greatest album ever made,Discovery.(I'm not one of those people who only likes Discovery,in fact,I am one of the few fans of DP's latest,Human After All.)10/10
Pheonix-It takes a while for this drumbeat to become an actual song,but still,its pretty good. 7/10
Fresh-Think of this song,as a look into the future. This song starts with a guitar solo,which kinda reminds me of Human After All,and then goes into a song,which sounds like they re-arranged One More Time. 10/10
Around The World-At 7:00 on a lot of songs,I think DP wasted a lot of their stretching skills on this album. Think,if Human After All,could stay cool,at those long times,wouldnt it be 20 times better? Around The World blatantly kicks Emotion's butt. 10/10
Rollin & Scratchin' - Again,like Pheonix,it takes a while for this drumbeat to become a song,but it does it eventually. 8/10
Teachers-Featuring a hip hop beat,and the voice from Technologic,this is one of my personal DP faves. So 10/10.
High Fidelity-Did anyone ever see that one thing on VH1 where that guy cut up a bunch of 45 records and glued them together and played them? That sounds like High Fidelity. As the Gorillaz forum would say,its Snrang. 8/10
Rock N' Roll-Once again,it takes a while for the drumbeat to come up. This album gets pretty repeditive,using these same moves over and over,like long drumbeats,fading sound quality.. But like everything this band does,it does it well. 8/10.
Oh Yeah-I read another review of this album,and this other guy said it pretty well. Its supposed to be techno,making fun of techno,on a techno album. 9/10
Burnin'-Once again,the long drumbeat,but the song it turns into is awesome sounding,with all these effects flying around,it sounds like a lost Discovery track.Only weirder. 10/10
Indo Silver Club-Continues where Burnin left off,with another track,sounding like it was ripped from Discovery. Its got weird sounding synths going around about a minuite into it,and that turns out to be about it. 9/10.
Alive-Nice intro,a drumbeat and a synth playing at the same time,building up a little better than the rest of the long drumbeat songs. But building better,and longer at the same time. 8/10
Funk A.D-A clip of Da Funk played backwards. 7/10
All in all,get it.
Description of Homework
French band, a highly danceable mix of disco, house and techno, who just recently supported the Chemical Brothers on their European tour dates. The band is currentlybuzzing in the U.K. music press. 16 tracks. Domestic available on Virgin as of March 25, 1997.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
