Daft Punk

[Giancarlo]

Haha, yeah, another band thread. But nothing wrong with it, right?

Anyone else like them? They're a bit strange, but "One More Time" is a great song i can't forget.

I like 2 of their songs...

I liked the 'Homework' album better. Less vocoder... I hate that effect.

IMO, i don't see why they used the expression "punk" since they do techno/dance music...

Actually, I read an interview where they said that when they were first starting out (before they were DP), a euro music mag reviewed their music and slammed it pretty bad, calling it 'daft punk'. The rest, as they say, is history...

most of the songs on discovery wasn't good. there was only harder, better, faster, stronger and a few of the late tracks that are good. the other ones they released, one more time, aerodynamic and digital love were just plain crap.

da funk, around the world were the only other tewo that were good.

good new mix of Don't be light (?me thinks?) they've just done for Air...

They're really iffy. Some songs are great (Da Funk), others are nonsense (Harder Better Faster Stronger).

As an aside, Da Funk is about the best test of a coaxial woofer/tweeter setup as you can get.
