    1. @alunJan 2026· in “Daft Punk Easter Egg in the BPM Tempo of Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger?”

      Daft Punk are very clever in the way they make their music. Their song "One More Time" is a simple three-part sample from a 70s disco song. This video is a great visualization on how it's composed. Absolutely incredible. this video
