I guess around the time of RAM, I noticed that those guys have never used a female vocalist. Have I missed that they in fact did? Is it not unusual that scholarly fellows such as they have avoided doing so?

The only female vocals they've ever used are on 'Ouverture', from Daft Club, iirc. That's Élodie Bouchez, Thomas Bangalter's wife. And yes, it's very unusual.

Looks like they’ve officially disbanded?

Ha, yes, I bumped the more recently active thread, but I saw that.

Alternatively, they're going to show up for LCD Soundsystem's SNL performance this weekend.

Been a fun set. Just listening mostly but it's a true snapshot of time and place.

Saw them around that time. They were fun but not too different from very good contemporary Chicago or NYC dj’s playing in the House world. It’s just that …” pssst … these are two really young French dudes!” made it special.

The first album, remixes, offshoot labels and “Discovery” were and are still godhead to me, though.

Interesting. The ballet's title is a direct reference to Barthes which is blowing my late-90s rave+theory mind.
