You're shitting me right? That album was terrible. There were some great songs on it - Around The World, Burnin' - but they were needlessly moderated by filler. You know the kind of tracks I'm talking about - 'Phoenix' is a great example. The first sixty four bars are nothing but kick and hi-hat, and the song itself never expanded at all. 'Rock 'n' Roll' is another example of this. Just drums and an average sounding keyboard solo - for seven minutes. Some might see (for example) Nuxx in the same vein, but in Nuxx the rhythms and melodies are constantly but subtly changing. On Homework, it's not subtle, it's just not there.

Sorry to rant like this but the last place I expected people singing the praises of Homework was on the Underworld forums.

Whaaah? This isn't thinking-music...it's dance music, drive you crazy with the groove music! Try listening again, with the volume cranked. It's lo-fi, but it'll make you move.

i was offroading in Argentina, listening to "Homework" folowed by Daft Punk's "Alive 1997". i nearly crashed the truck, the music was driving me!

Homework is considered a classic house album, especially since it exposed that type of music to a lot of people who weren't that familiar with it. Daft Punk didn't make "Underworld" type music, but it's still great for what they do.

If you follow this link to a hidden old section of dirty and click on 'Classics' you'll see Homework listed.

daft punk - homework

daft punk's debut album makes no doubts about the influences contained within the sleeve. everything that was cool about the late 70's, early 80's makes a cameo within the sixteen tracks on 'homework'. however, unlike most artists who retread the songs of the influences they wear on their sleeves, daft punk clearly "get it". 'homework' is easily the freshest take on early urban dance culture recorded to date. instead of providing a snapshot of the past, it gives us an open door to the future of what can still be accomplished, using everything from chic to mr. fingers as a guiding path. it may be a difficult task in today's constantly evolving dance scene to grab from the past, but when it's done properly like 'homework', it can be genius.
