Stardust

Stardust is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Dimitri from Paris and Chaka Khan. Those roots explain a lot about how Stardust arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Modjo, Michael Gray, Daft Punk, Crystal Waters and Cassius, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Modjo, Big Time Rush, The xx, Jessie Ware and Miami Horror, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 35 connections around Stardust, reaching back through Dimitri from Paris and forward to Modjo. Follow any of those threads to keep travelling the influence between bands and genres on Starverb.
