What's up with Daft Punk?

these guys are like 35 now, they already released a statement of feeling sort of over this shit w/ "human after all", and it's hard to imagine what they could do to top the space pyramid shit

I was all '35?' and then I checked and went uh a bit. Somehow I had it in my head they were always a little older than me!

once you build a pyramid, you're p much done-- ask the egyptians or the aztecs

Didn't stop Dick Clark.

they're MY age??

*lies down on floor and hyperventilates*

if it makes anybody feel any better, the last time they wrote a good song they were...24?

35?! They're practically ready for their Rick Rubin moment.

only a sex tape scandal can make them relevant again

Yeah but it would look something like this:

daft punk/mbv collab would be wicked overhyped, never get past the demo stage, and i'd be all over it.

they're MY age??

otm

maybe they're working on a time machine

Robot House! (futurama voice)

Disco legend Giorgio Moroder ha revealed that he recorded a “rap” for the new Daft Punk album. During a one-on-one interview at International Music Summit in Ibiza, the producer behind genre-defining songs such as “I Feel Love” and “The Chase” revealed that he recently went into the studio with the French duo.

The robots asked the Munich Machine to go into a vocal booth and speak about his life. In the studio were multiple microphones of various vintages from the ’60s to today. When Moroder asked the engineer why they had so many mics, he replied that the mic they would use would depend on what decade of his life he was speaking about. When Moroder asked if anyone would know the difference, the engineer replied “They will know.”

hahahahaha

Just read on the Popjustice forum that there is supposed to be a new single next month called Remona Street.

French magazine 'Tsugi' confirmed the duo will premier the new single July 21st.

I really hope this is true.

because the last 10 years of daft punk have been so amazing?

This is pretty great. Don't have it right here to compare, but if memory serves this is very close to the live version they rocked on Alive 97.

Urrrr, massive clipboard fail!

heh

haha andrew m with the excellent unintended slam there

yeah, that was pretty harsh until i read the next post!

that was amazing

I have a Daft Punk related question. I remember that before Discovery was released, a number of tracks were leaked online. Some were not actually DP tracks, and some were early versions of what ended up on Discovery. This collection is now floating around online as Discovery (beta version).

When I bought a copy of the proper album, I was actually a little disappointed, because I thought the beta versions sounded better, or like they were going in a better direction. I downloaded the beta version, recently, but the track missing from it, that I really want, is the demo version of Face to Face.

In this version, the samples are rearranged differently and the only lyrics from Todd Edwards are 'What's going on? Could this by my understanding?'

If anyone could point me to where I could find this rare bootleg I would be very grateful.
