Who is the next Daft Punk (earlier stuff) to you?
-
Isn't Saint Pepsi vaporwave? I remember Enjoy Yourself or whatever that song was called, with Mac Tonight as the music video.
Also, nu-disco is also a thing. Not sure if disco funk is more disco or more funk, as I'm not very familiar with the intricasies of disco
I was a fan of Funky Panda on YouTube a few years back (~2019), mostly for electro swing, but they also uploaded future funk and nu-disco. Not anymore, though. Funky Way FM as an online radio appears to have come back, though
Edit: here be the Funky Way: https://funkyway.net/
Edit 2: there's also an album credited to Kyo-2, Macintosh Plus, Saint Pepsi and Saint Germain on Spotify and the first song is entitled "VAPORWAVE THEME SONG." Not sure if it is legit, as I'm not familiar enough with vaporwave. I recognise two names, though
Well Future Funk was sort of a “fork” from Vaporwave from what I remember. Very DIY attitude based and similar visual aesthetic but it’s more about sampling Boogie music and then compressing the hell out of the kick - to where it’s really more in the vein of Filter/French House - but usually a bit more lofi production wise.

They are very different genres. But most likely Daft Punk have danceable music that can be traced back to Chicago house. After disco people stared incorporating synth /electro sound into dance music into the 80s. Chicago house DJ Paul Johnson is the first name mentioned in the Daft Punk song "Teachers". During the 90's French house became very big. Searching 90's or 2000's French house will get groups close to Daft Punk.
Believe nu-disco is the answer.

I love Daft Punk so much. I hate that I never got a chance to see them live. I have the album Alive 2007 on repeat right now. (I say earlier stuff in the title because I didn't care for the album Random Access Memories.)
Who else would you recommend I listen to? Especially if they're still producing music. I love their loopy, sampled sound. Any other bands do something similar? Identical isn't necessary, adjacent is fine.
Rumor is, any time two Frenchmen are in a room with a keyboard, there is a small chance that the next electronic duo will form from the interaction.
Until then, it's probably Justice and Ratatat. Check out Marc Rebillet, too. The rare "one-man electronic duo."

The legend. I mean he's fun for a while but after that while you start to see patterns and it kind of got old for me.

I'm not sure if Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo had side projects too.

Track down Club Soda - it’s great.

True, I don't listen to him for several days in a row like I do with Justice or Daft Punk. But I love him in bite-sized pieces, and tracks like Your New Morning Alarm make me smile every time.
I saw him at Bonnaroo a couple years ago and everyone in the crowd was having such a good time. At one point, he's running around on stage in his bathrobe (of course), and his robe got snagged on something. So he just took it off, and was running around in his underwear yelling, "SOMEONE GET ME A ROBE! SOMEONE GET ME A GOD DAMN ROBE!" Then he made a song out of it.

Justice is up there for me. Haven't disliked a single one of their albums yet.

Mine was in the mid2000s. “Danger” released “11h30” which is an absolute banger that, at the time, nothing came close to sounding like it. Would recommend!

Man, I haven't listened to Ratatat in yeaaars. Thanks for the memory!
My friend took me to Ratatat and busted out a cannabis pipe before we went in. It was the second time I ever had THC. It was SURREAL.
The only experience that tops it for me was rolling tits at Tipper, with a custom stage and projected visuals.

My friends who enjoy Daft Punk all love RAM and I, like you, really didn’t dig it. There’s a good song or two but the rest really don’t jive with me.

I wish Air was coming to a city near me. Tragic.
Yeah looks like it's only a north American tour. That's a shame. Most people aren't willing to go to the US right now, including me.

I wouldn't call pretty lights up and coming. He headlined a festival I went to fifteen years ago. But I'm going to check your other recommendations cause I haven't heard like half of them. Thank you!

Porter Robinson is probably worth a listen.

Sorry - didn’t know they had to be up and coming. I wouldn’t call most of the artists on that list that, but definitely worth checking out.

I saw Primus -> Pretty Lights @ AllGood on Marvin’s Mountaintop.
It was amazing

No apologies needed homie! I'm just an incredibly pedantic person

Also I'm completely wrong, the post did not say "up and coming" I must've hallucinated it
