Who is this man?

With all the new electronic music coming out and forcing its way into the mainstream, there seems to be a loss of the sense for why we are here.  Any asshole with a mac can now make music, and our standards for music are rapidly deteriorating.  (heres looking at you most dubstep)  I just wanted to get a little nostalgic with a DJ who in my opinion, is the greatest ever.  If you dont recognize the picture above, heres a hint:
And if you cant recognize that picture, im not so sure youre on the right blog.  The aforementioned is Thomas Bangalter, one half of Daft Punk, for which we owe everything EDM related in America today.  

I dont want to just post all the classic Daft Punk songs (Ill assume you are familiar) but id rather open your eyes to the solo work of Thomas Bangalter.

I can honestly say without hearing him, there is no way im involved in this culture at all today.

Such an energetic song, maybe not good for the clubs, but great for driving fast down the highway

Extra Dry:

You may absolutely hate this song at first, but i urge you to give it a few plays to see if it will grow.  I love the way he lets the vocals break down the beat 

What to do:

Top 10 favorite song of all time, simplistic yet perfect

Club Soda:

and lastly a live set on Busy P's birthday in which he plays with most of the Ed Banger Records crew. (much more to come on them later)

Stay Classy
