I've been a big fan of Daft Punk's "Homework" and "Discovery" for awhile now. Is there any other electronic groups that you think I may like? I enjoy Daft Punk's funky hooks and basslines. I've heard the Basement Jaxx are comparable. Any Suggestions?


Thanks!

check out a group called Mutiny UK 'In the Know' they sound alot like Basement Jaxx

also:

Get F---ed - 'Wet Dreams'
Timo Maas - 'Loud'

Okay, this isn't exactly like Daft Punk, but it's got that fun vibe with throwback sounds and is consistent from start to finish... that would be Pizzicato Five's "Happy End of the World". Love it.

Armand Van Helden- heavy hip-hop based breakbeats
David Holmes- soulful EDM, did the soundtrack for Ocean's Eleven
Underworld- similar beats and minimalist song structures, you've probably heard "Born Slippy" off of the Trainspotting soundtrack.
Lemon Jelly- funny and upbeat edm, catchy as hell.

You might like the Scissor Sister's self-titled debut, though I honestly haven't listened to Daft Punk outside of very large and loud dance parties. And I always recommend Basement Jaxx's Kish Kash.
