I appreciate it’s not a caterpillar in to a butterfly scenario like most of your submissions. Still though. It was a Daft Punk side project, not a previous band.

Shit yeah of course it was. Apart from adding another member, what was the point out of curiosity? It’s not exactly a million miles away from the Daft Punk sound, so I assume there’s more to it?

It was only one of Daft Punk and two other guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, I always assumed it was both, well TIL. I nearly contributed to the thread there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted December 20, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted December 20, 2018 It was Thomas Bangalter (who many believe is the more talented of the two) from Daft Punk and Alan Braxe, who is a fantastic producer in his own right (see Intro and Lumberjack). I think there was a third person involved, DJ Falcon perhaps? Edit- Falcon wasn't involved, he was one half of Together along with Bangalter. Another cracking track.

Paid Members Carbomb Posted December 20, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted December 20, 2018 I guess Bowie would be the ultimate example in this thread, no? Whilst it was more a case of him deliberately changing it up frequently rather than just finding his sound, the sheer scale of the ch-ch-changes his music underwent was pretty damn drastic. Probably the most drastic was 1. Outside - Bowie doing drum n' bass is still uncanny to listen to, awesome as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gaffer Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Most of the good ones are already taken, but meet Underworld Mk. 1. An altogether limp, uninspired synthpop-gone-stale effort. Fast forward a few years, a couple of doves and a DJ Darren Emerson later and you've got the best progressive house album of the nineties in Dubnobasswithmyheadman. A film about skag later, and they'd have a comfortable hit with a tune about lager and megamegawhitethings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordsfromlee Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 Eliie Goulding play in the pubs in Hereford back when she was a folk singer/songwriter before she got signed and the label turner her into a pop star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wordsfromlee Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Has anyone mentioned Fatboy Slim starting out as the bass player for The Housemartins? EDIT: I'm a double post wanker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Pretty sure Norman Cook holds the record for most top 40 hits under different guises. A record he took from Jonathan King. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
