Homework is the debut album of French electronic duo Daft Punk, released on January 20, 1997 through Virgin Records.The album's tracks weren't initially produced to end up on a body of work; according to duo member Thomas Bangalter, they were compiled from projects intended to be separate singles created over a five-month span, after which he and fellow member Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo realized that these songs could make a decent album when put together.The success of Homework, primarily through the strength of its singles (most famously "Da Funk" and "Around the World"), brought worldwide attention to French house. | |

Homework (Music) / int_14f572df | comment |
Dogfaces: The dog man (AKA Charles) from the music videos for "Da Funk" and "Fresh," although judging by this◊ it's more than just his head. | |

List Song: "Teachers", which is essentially a list of shout-outs to all the musicians that inspired the duo (their "teachers", if you will). | |

Incredibly Long Note | |
Homework (Music) / int_44cf7d2c | comment |
Incredibly Long Note: The opening guitar section in "Fresh" ends with a really long note that is held out for a time long enough to allow the song's beat to Fade In. | |

Gratuitous Panning | |
Homework (Music) / int_5e835a41 | comment |
Gratuitous Panning: "WDPK 83.7 FM" has a vocoded voice (sampled from Daft Punk's own "Musique") saying "music" that is repeatedly panned between the left and right ears. | |

Homework (Music) / int_74149c93 | comment |
Epic Rocking: A lot of the songs on this album are on the longer side; in fact, half of the songs are over five minutes long, with the longest being just over seven-and-a-half minutes ("Rock'n Roll" at 7:32). | |

Fun with Acronyms | |
Homework (Music) / int_c25c7890 | comment |
Fun with Acronyms: A DVD of the music videos for Homework was released with the title D.A.F.T.: A Story About Dogs, Androids, Firemen and Tomatoes. Aside from spelling "Daft," this references elements of the videos themselves — Charles, the anthropomorphic dog main character in "Da Funk" and "Fresh", the robots in "Around the World", the firefighters in "Burnin'," and the tomatoes in "Revolution 909." | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: The music videos of "Da Funk" and "Fresh" features a man who either walks around with a dog mask or has the head of a dog. Nobody who meets him finds this bizarre. | |

Broken Record | |
Homework (Music) / int_e085feeb | comment |
Broken Record / Looped Lyrics: Every. Single. Song. Then again, considering who we're talking about... Most of the songs are defined by a certain element that is repeated. In "Burnin'" and "Rock'n Roll," it's a sliding sound. In "Rollin' and Scratchin'," it's a hard and heavy distorted sound. "Around the World" repeats its title over 140 times. | |

Surreal Music Video | |
Homework (Music) / int_ecf2949f | comment |
Surreal Music Video: "Around the World" features quartets of skeletons, mummies, men with tiny heads, men in space suits and women in bathing suits walking in circles. Each one represents a different part of the music - the tiny-headed men are the bassline, while the space-suited men are the vocals, for example - and they only move when their part of the music is audible. In "Da Funk" an anthropomorphic dog walks around a city at night, but nobody who encounters him finds this strange. At one point he even meets a girl he knows from years before and from their happy reunion it seems that he apparently always looked that way. When she invites him to her house and is about to get on the bus it turns out he is not allowed to bring him ghettoblaster with him. This causes the dog man to turn back. | |
