Daft Punk have been very influential in the ways that they produce and perform., from revolutionising the Electronic music genre to changing the way artists perform and interact with their crowd.
Like everyone, even Daft Punk have had influences over the years, though to select only a few would be a massive understatement, as Bangalter stated in an interview, “Its hard to say that one particular artist has influenced our music more then another, everyone of our inspirations has made an impact somehow towards our music, without them we wouldn’t have the sound we do today, each have played their part.”
Their Influences include:
Todd Terry, Masters at work, Cerrone, Frankie Knuckles, DJ Pierre, The Chemical Brothers, Moby, Giorgio Moroder,
Leftfield, Roxy Music, Marshall Jefferson, The Beach Boys, The Art of Noise, M/A/R/R/S, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Black Box & Thomas Bangalter. “Each has played their own part”
There are certain musicians that come along that shift a culture, attitude, or future musicians. Another musician that went on influence future generations and considered one of the greatest guitar players in the world is Eddie Van Halen.
...s. Artist who were influence by the Beastie boys were Eminem, Kid Rock, Korn, and Ke$ha. The revival periods when the beastie boys remade their albums, were not as successful as the first launch. The license to Ill sold over 9 billion copies and that was nearly impossible to top. We listen today because although groups have tried to copy the Beastie Boys style none has been able to mimic the mixing of rock and roll music and hip-hop lyrics as they did.

The Beach Boys had, and still have, a great impact on American musical history. They've created many trends and have left a mark in the world through their music. Although they did
The American rock band Nirvana impacted American culture and society by paving the way for the punk rock subculture into mainstream corporate America. Punk rock music stems from the rock genre but has its own agenda. The crux of punk rock is that it is a movement of the counterculture against the norms of society. Punk rock in itself is made up of a subculture of people who rejected the tameness of rock and roll music during the 1970s. (Masar, 2006, p. 8). The music stresses anti-establishment and anti-authoritarian ideas in its lyrics as well as scorns political idealism in American society. Before Nirvana unintentionally made punk rock a multi-million dollar commercialized genre of music, underground rock paved the way for the punk rock genre by creating core values that punk rockers drew upon.
It was the first time I had ever been to a party. I had just graduated high school, and did not have nor ever did have any sort of interest in going to a party. One of my fellow classmates had invited me to her party on the night of graduation, and I decided why not? I was told growing up that I would never have contact with most of my classmates after graduation ever again, so I wanted to have one last fun moment with the graduating class of 2013. I arrived at my classmate’s house around nine, and immediately was overwhelmed by the makeshift dance floor in the backyard, the loud, unfamiliar music, and the disco lights. Growing up, I had never been introduced to rap music, so I did not enjoy it as much as my fellow classmates did. It did not take long for the party to get started. Boys and girls alike started to make their way to the makeshift dance floor, immediately dancing on one another. I was absolutely taken away as girls that I had known for four years bent over and began to press their backsides up against boys, grinding on the boys as if it were an everyday activity as degrading music blared out of the speakers, as if they were not aware of the actual lyrics of the song. I was not sure what made me feel sicker to my stomach: the way the girls moved their behinds in ways that I found impossible, which I later learned was called ‘twerking’, or the misogynistic rap music that my classmates danced to. I have not been to a party since then, and I do not think I ever will go to one again. It did not take me long to understand why my parents never let me listen to rap music before: it is this misogynistic, or a hatred towards women, type of music. Rap music clearly portrays women in several, negative ways, such as re...
The birth of Rock and Roll Music was a mixture of popular music and African American country blues and hillbilly music. However, Rock and Roll music was influence since the 1950’s by two particular African American artists like Muddy Waters and Howlin` Wolf. Through their distinct voices, style, deliverance, and performances that helped the music in the 1950’s give rise to this new style of music genre Rock and Roll. During the World War II era, this style of music was looked at; as traditional music and, through the music people could tell their story, not just about their struggles but the real struggles going on around them, like, isolation between black and white people. Most artists were sharing their values and trying to associate through

The Use of Electronic Technology in 20th and 21st Century Music In this essay, I have examined the use of electronic technology within 20th and 21st Century music. This has involved analysis of the development and continuing refinement of the computer in today’s music industry, as well as the theory of the synthesiser and the various pioneers of electronic technology, including Dr. Robert Moog and Les Paul. Also within the essay, I have discussed the increasing use of computers in the recording studio. The computer has become an indispensable tool in ensuring that both recording and playback sound quality is kept at the maximum possible level. Many positive ideas have come from the continued onslaught of computerisation.
Techno is a form of electronic dance music that emerged in Detroit, Michigan, in the United States during the mid-to-late 1980s. The first recorded use of the word techno in reference to a specific genre of music was in 1988. Many styles of techno now exist, but Detroit techno is seen as the foundation upon which a number of subgenres have been built. In Detroit, techno resulted from the melding of African American music including Chicago house, funk, electro, and electric jazz with electronic music by artists such as Kraftwerk, Giorgio Moroder, and Yellow Magic Orchestra. Stylistically, techno is generally repetitive instrumental music, often produced for use in a continuous DJ set. Many producers use retro electronic musical devices to create what they consider to be an authentic techno sound. Drum machines from the 1980s such as Roland's TR-808 and TR-909 are highly prized, and

A few sound factors that have been influential are the fusion of different genres, and the sounds that are categorized as blues, heavy metal, and psychedelic rock. Their look was also extremely influential because of how different it was. They wore furs and velvet, along with ringmaster hats and flag capes. Their revealing jumpsuits and kohl eyeliner started to become their signature look at the peak of their career, along with printed neck scarves and wide brimmed velvet hats. Their sleek jackets and skintight pants are still very popular among modern British rock bands.
Frankie Knuckles, the acknowledged "godfather" of Chicago house, got his start as a Dj via Manhattan, New York, Usa. Whilst there he was spinning Disco, Philly Soul records during the early 1970s with another legendary deejay figure, the late, great Larry Levan, New York.
They formed their own movement. They made their own music and expressed it in the way they wanted to. They came up with what idea they wanted to spread and effectively distributed it. They did all of the producing, booking, recording, and touring on their own without the help of some other company. They always had an audience interested in them. Most importantly, they never gave up. All of those things are the basic characteristics of DIY punk bands and what makes them stand out from everyone else. To say they were not successful is an understatement. They were very successful in getting their ideas across and getting people to follow them as was described earlier. DIY punk bands deserve to receive more acknowledgement for the hard work and dedication they had to experience along the way of producing and performing their
Music and the relationships of music have changed drastically in our society. The course of studies and the evaluations of the applications of the technology of music, the making and the listening of music have changed in the way we listen to music, the styles of music in our society and in the media.
