Legendary guitarist/producer/songwriter Nile Rodgers of Chic has blogged about his first recording session with Daft Punk . Last week, in a blog post titled "Daft Punk Is Hanging At My House," Rodgers, who has been fighting a public battle with cancer (he says he is thankfully in remission), broke the news about his recording session with Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo. "I dig Daft Punk," Rodgers wrote. "When I first heard 'Da Funk' I thought it was one of the grooviest records I'd heard in a long time." The following day Rodgers [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-10T14:59:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4051617/nile-rodgers-anuncia-colaborao-com-daft-punk/

It's been too long since we've seen a proper Daft Punk album, the Tron Soundtrack was a tease at best and left us starved for more. Now, thanks to some comments from guitarist/song writer, Nile Rodgers, there is a glimmer of hope on the horizon for a new Daft Punk release. Nile was involved with some of the biggest names in music during the 70s and 80s (Luther Vandross, Aretha Franklin, and Sister Sledge to name a few) so it is no shock that the disco-sampling house gods would be interested in working with a legend of the genre.

So this may be a bit preliminary, but the interwebs are abuzz today about some recent comments from disco pioneer Nile Rodgers regarding his recent time spent with prolific dance duo Daft Punk. After scoring the soundtrack for 20112s Tron Legacy with Hans Zimmer, many fans have been anxious to know if we can expect more original material from our favorite French robots soon. Well we may have our first clue as to what to expect, and the news seems pretty good. Apparently the boys arrived at Nile's house recently for a jam session, and the [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-09T02:28:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4047375/remix-of-daft-punk-by-cherokee/
A bit tied down with school doing regression analysis and correlation and other statistics type stuff but ran across this nice remix of Daft Punk's "Something About You" by Cherokee that I thought I would pass along. Nothing new but that doesn't make it completely enjoyable. Check it out.]]> text/html 2012-02-09T00:04:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4047211/daft-punk-writing-new-album-with-nile-rodgers/
When we recently celebrated the 15th anniversary of the release of Daft Punk's debut album Homework , we got even more antsy than usual for new music from the French duo, who haven't dropped a studio LP in seven years. Happily, we can report that Daft Punk are currently working with producer Nile Rodgers on a new album. "We were just jamming at my house [in New York], but its gonna be proper and real," Rodgers told music blog Faster Louder . "They came over to my today around breakfast time and its [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-08T22:41:03+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4047067/kavinsky-roadgame/

Nile Rodgers, better known as the frontman of Chic and one of the pioneers of disco-funk, revealed to Culture Map Houston on Monday that he would be collaborating with Daft Punk , the most famous robots in electronic music: "Those guys are great. They're coming to my apartment on Monday and we're going to talk about making a new record together."

Nile Rodgers co-founded and led Chic, probably the single greatest act of the disco era. He produced "Upside Down" for Diana Ross and "Let's Dance" for David Bowie and "Like A Virgin" for Madonna. He's in the process of whupping cancer. As far as dance-pop goes, he's basically the motherfucking man. And he's apparently also working with Daft Punk on some sort of collaboration. As Consequence Of Sound points out , Rodgers tells Australia's Faster Louder that he and the French duo got together to work on music just last week: "We were just jamming [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-08T12:54:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4045697/nile-rodgers-talks-more-about-daft-punk-collaboration/

From his work with the Soulquarians collective, to Donuts, his instrumental album which dropped three days before his death, Jay Dee aka James Yancey aka J Dilla created a sound that was often imitated, but never duplicated. His genius transcended production, and he will undoubtedly go down as one of Hip-Hops greatest musicians ever. Dilla had a knack for creating entire beats around obscure samples that [...]]]> text/html 2012-02-08T02:29:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4044577/daft-punk-to-work-with-chics-frontman-nile-rodgers/

There may not be as much dancing as the "Lonely Boy" video, but the new Black Keys video for "Gold on the Ceiling" is still pretty cool. You can find "Gold on the Ceiling" on 20112s acclaimed El Camino and you can see the Black Keys live in Seattle on May 8th at Key Arena. Here's a name we haven't heard in a while.
