Wow, what an amazing breakdown video visualization. I see there are a bunch of these, for e.g. Daft Punk [VIDEO] , Britney Spears [LINK] , Fatboy Slim [LINK]
This youtube channel has a whole pile of sampling recreations. Daft Punk: Discovery [LINK] Daft Punk: One More Time [VIDEO] Mos Def: Mathematics [LINK] Pogo: Alice [LINK] Fatboy Slim: Rockafeller Skank [LINK] And this 30 minute compilation that spans four decades is utterly mesmerizing [LINK]
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. [VIDEO]
