Happy Festivus and Other Stuff

Happy Holidays to all the Boppers!

Today, we have quite the post… mostly Daft Punk related, but thats not a bad thing, right?

Here is a fantastic live version of Daft Punk’s Rock’n Roll. Its from 1997, recorded at Le Rex Club in Paris. Back then, the boys used to go on stage with about 7 grand worth of equipment and no computers. Everything was just MIDI synced, basically recreating their studio setup. When I make a techno tune this is exactly where I’m coming from.

Next up is a Christmas themed House track by none other than Le Knight Club. You know I’m real keen on these tracks and normally I wouldn’t be so heavy on them, but given the season, I’m ok with it.

Finally, as a treat for the Holidays, I turned to my personal Disco source, the one I call when I need a new sample, my fellow funkateer, Melissa B, for a special holiday Disco groove.

As she puts it…
“It makes you feel special and unique. It lifts you up to where you should always be I think. Well at least me, it makes me happy.“

Everyone have a safe and happy holiday. I know sometimes stuff gets tough, but try to be happy with what you have. Most importantly, be happy that you’re alive, because in the end, you’ve only got yourself and thats the greatest gift of all.
