How to make a hit using samples: Daft Punk – “One More Time”

Written by Admin on January 25th, 2012

Daft Punk’s “One More Time” is one of the best examples of how a cool dance tune can be made from scratch using samples. This video will show you how, using Ableton Live 6, you can create the song’s main beat from the original track, called “More spell on you” by Eddie Johns. I’m really sorry for the low quality but I didn’t manage to improve it. If anyone know any tip about recording the screen, please let me know. Please rate, comment and share on your blog if you like it.

    @UnicornPow3r Usually daft punk add their own drums, some synths and bass to the songs. And slice the samples.

    @SUPERSWEETLOU You have a good point, but I believe, that instead of blaming Daft Punk for “stealing” their music, people just want to prove, that they’re DJs, not actual artists.

    But then again, who knows, maybe they’re just butthurt because they didn’t realise that you could profit from recycling music.

  6. holzy4565 says:

    I’ve shown my friend this video and he was like ” now any body could be daft punk.”. Nit at all. I’m think about it. Yeah this guy recreated the song, but he had a refrence to go about it. Imagine how TB and GM did it? They had to have heard the original and go like, “this part totally matches up with this little part that went before it.”

  10. bencammo says:

    sampling is harder to create anything worth listening to as you’re limited to manipulating only one sound. modern producers who shy away from samples have so much more options to create sound, and their creations often can’t hold a candle to anything that daft punk has masterfully produced

    any one who ever though daft punk took the easy way out by sampleing…fuck off

  18. TheBennyman23 says:

    I did this with Cola Bottle Baby, and I mixed the voices, and you know what I heard? I heard a robot voice (not the same as HBFS), saying, “Work it, make it, do it, makes us” oFTo

  19. apple8091 says:

    if you put the pitch down a little more, you will get the exact sound as daft punk

  20. willobeen says:

    @UnicornPow3r sampling is an art in itself

  21. jctregoat says:

    While it’s easy for us to recreate now, imagine doing this with the equipment they had.

  22. matthewm04 says:

    if you need help again with this,
    play this One M0:00re Time

  23. rubbn95 says:

    @escuadron401 the only job a computer does is making extraordinary sounds that gives you eargasms . Thats why music made from a computer has much more potential than some guitar jamming or whatever.
    Do you really think the computer does all the melodies and picks all the sounds so they fit?
    Well yeah, ur partially right: U need a laptop and you need a program… but you also have to understand music. It takes years to master any REAL software for making music.
    So stfu.
