You're right. It's funny listening to this. They're playing the same song, but it's not even close to as good as the Daft version.
The daft version is loud and has a bite. This version just sounds lethargic and boring.
- zenlikethat 11y agoI think the author is more concerned with hacking and exploring than perfectly duplicating the existing track.
- jonwot 11y agothe daft version is clearly mixed (eq'd, compressed, etc.) and probably done so in a nice "easy" to use DAW. i doubt he could get that sound (without working long hours) when hardcoding everything.

- aerovistae 11y agoYou're not wrong, but it was needless to say. It's like going into a freshmen physics class and pointing out that a frictionless vacuum is hardly a valid simulation of reality. You're missing the point.
- agumonkey 11y agoI don't feel that way, it's close enough to my ears. And I take my ears are very well educated in that department.
- JonnieCache 11y agoMaking ones dance music sound loud and biting rather than lethargic and boring requires deep wizardry which lisp alone cannot provide.

- coldtea 11y agoWhooosh! The idea is not to perfectly replicate the existing production, but to showcase the use and possibilities of the systems used.
- jeremy7600 11y agoThen they have failed.
- coldtea 11y agoI don't think anybody in here agrees. It's a very good introduction into the platforms.
- jeremy7600 11y agoI disagree. The music made by this software has no depth or emotion. It's like a vocoder from the 80s. I could never get one to say my name right,now matter how I spelled it. And da funk just doesn't sound right without depth. It sounds flat. It sounds like it was made by a computer, not a human. Not flattering to the original piece of the software itself. Total failure.
