I dunno, its all house music to me? Or are they completely different genres? Maybe I need a link to that famous 'Guide to Electronic Music' to get my genres straight.

Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music (fun for all ages!)

Oops...apparently Basement Jaxx's duo are British! I could've sworn they were both French. Regardless, the genres (French house and funk house) are still very similar.

Of those, I've only of heard Daft Punk, and I like 'em, so they get my vote.

Basement Jaxx has a couple of good songs, but I tend to enjoy Daft Punk more.

Basement Jaxx "where's your head at" good tune.. But "Around the world" is a timeless classic... have to go with Daft punk here...I don't rember what the 4th track was called but I used to just set that on repeat and got to sleep every night..

 

[mzkhadir]

best tune from basement jaxx is good luck. daft punk has couple of good songs but I would not listen to them over and over again. Dimitri just sucks bad, I have bought his albums thinking there were good, but just to give them to somebody because I was not listening.

You're all wrong. Daft Punk have made about 3 decent songs, ever. basement Jaxx have made some fantastic and really varied tunes. Namely:

Jump 'n Shout
Where's Your Head At?
Get Me off
Rendez-vu
Romeo

It's all a little cheesy, but great after a few drinks in a club.

Hey now, I like DP a lot. Fresh, Around the World, Revolution and One More Time are some great tunes off the top of my head, and I assure you that 4 is more than 3

Anyway, if we're discussing French electronica, why no mention of Kraftwerk? After all their name rhymes with the greatest poster evar

I dislike Daft Punk.

Basement Jaxx >>> Daft Punk IMHO

Daft punk is as interesting as watching paint dry.

 

[mobobuff]

Okay I just listened to 5 different Basement Jaxx songs and Daft Punk is MUCH BETTER.

 

[ElFenix]

jamiroquai > daft punk and basement jaxx combined

 

[KeyserSoze]

Man, I can't believe you linked to Ishkur's guide. That thing suxxxxxxxxxxxx.

People, it's meant for entertainment. That dude makes up about 50 genre's.



Anways, vote for Daft Punk.

Both are amazing, and they are not house at all.
Dimitri is house though, so is Pete Tong and the like.

Daft and Jaxx are electronica.

If you are into that stuff, Chem Brothers, Royksopp, Armand van Helden, Groove Armada, latest Moby are all good as well.

The Video Clip to Cish Cash from Basement Jaxx is nice in my opionion

@Gurck: Kraftwerk is from Germany.

 

[RedCOMET]

Daft Punk all the way. This video is awesome by Daft Punk. I would definately watch if you have the time.

Also, another album i enjoy is NYC Underground Vol 4. Also some good stuff

Digitally Imported is another great place to stream some techno/house, etc music. Also, they have Jazz and a Salsa stream. Another good site.
