Daft Punk were a French electronic music duo formed in 1993 in Paris by Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo. They achieved early popularity in the late 1990s as part of the French house movement, combining elements of house music with funk, disco, techno, rock and synth-pop.[1] The duo garnered further acclaim and commercial success and are now regarded as one of the most influential acts in dance music history.[2]

Daft Punk formed after Bangalter and de Homem-Christo's former indie rock band, Darlin', disbanded. Their debut studio album, Homework, was released by Virgin Records in 1997 to positive reviews, backed by the singles "Around the World" and "Da Funk". From 1999, Daft Punk assumed robot personas for public appearances, with helmets, outfits and gloves to disguise their identities; they made few media appearances. They were managed from 1996 to 2008 by Pedro Winter, the head of Ed Banger Records.

Daft Punk's second album,

Best Electronic/Dance Album; the tour is credited for broadening the appeal of dance music in North America. Daft Punk composed the score for the 2010 film Tron: Legacy
.

In 2013, Daft Punk left Virgin for Columbia Records and released their fourth and final album, Random Access Memories, to acclaim; the lead single, "Get Lucky", reached the top 10 in the charts of 27 countries. Random Access Memories won five Grammy Awards in 2014, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for "Get Lucky". In 2016, Daft Punk gained their only number one on the Billboard Hot 100 with "Starboy", a collaboration with the Weeknd. In 2015, Rolling Stone ranked them the 12th greatest musical duo of all time; the same publication has included two of their albums on their list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time. They announced their split in 2021.

History

1987–1992: Early career and Darlin'

Darlin'", which they covered along with an original composition.[7] Both tracks were released on a multi-artist EP under Duophonic Records, a label owned by the London-based band Stereolab, who invited Darlin' to open for shows in the United Kingdom.[7]

Darlin' disbanded after around six months, having played two gigs and produced four songs. Bangalter described the project as "pretty average".[8] Brancowitz formed another band, Phoenix.[8] Bangalter and Homem-Christo formed Daft Punk and experimented with drum machines and synthesizers.[citation needed] The name was taken from a negative review of Darlin' in Melody Maker by Dave Jennings,[9] who dubbed their music "a daft punky thrash".[10] The band found the review amusing.[4] Homem-Christo said, "We struggled so long to find [the name] Darlin', and [this name] happened so quickly."[11]

1993–1996: First performances and singles

Mixmag cover feature in August 1997

In September 1993, Daft Punk attended a

Slam, the co-founder of the Scottish label Soma Quality Recordings.[4][12] They gave him a demo tape, which formed the basis for Daft Punk's debut single, "The New Wave", a limited release in 1994.[8] The single also contained the final mix of "The New Wave" called "Alive", which appeared on Daft Punk's first album.[13]

Daft Punk returned to the studio in May 1995 to record "Da Funk". After it became their first commercially successful single, they hired a manager, Pedro Winter, who regularly promoted them and other artists at his Hype nightclubs.[6] They signed with Virgin Records in September 1996 and made a deal to license tracks through their production company, Daft Trax.[3][6] Bangalter said that while they received numerous offers from record labels, they wanted to wait and ensure that they did not lose creative control. He considered the deal with Virgin more akin to a partnership.[14]

In the mid-to-late nineties, Daft Punk performed live at various events, without the costumes they later became known for. In 1996, they made their first performance in the United States, at an Even Furthur event in Wisconsin.[15] In addition to live original performances, they performed in clubs using vinyl records from their collection. They were known for incorporating numerous styles of music into their DJ sets.[16]

1997–1999: Homework

Daft Punk released their debut album, Homework, in 1997.[12] That February, the UK dance magazine Muzik published a Daft Punk cover feature and described Homework as "one of the most hyped debut albums in a long long time".[17] According to The Village Voice, the album revived house music and departed from the Eurodance formula.[18] The critic Alex Rayner wrote that it combined established club styles and the "burgeoning eclecticism" of big beat.[19] In 1997, Daft Punk embarked on an international concert tour, Daftendirektour, using their home equipment for the live stage.[8] On 25 May, they headlined the Tribal Gathering festival at Luton Hoo, England, with Orbital and Kraftwerk.[20]

The most successful single from Homework was "Around the World". "Da Funk" was also included on The Saint film soundtrack. Daft Punk produced a series of music videos for Homework directed by Spike Jonze, Michel Gondry, Roman Coppola and Seb Janiak. The videos were collected in 1999 as D.A.F.T.: A Story About Dogs, Androids, Firemen and Tomatoes.

Bangalter and Homem-Christo created their own record labels, Roulé and Crydamoure, after the release of Homework, and released solo projects by themselves and their friends. Homem-Christo released music as a member of Le Knight Club with Eric Chedeville, and Bangalter released music as a member of Together with DJ Falcon and founded the group Stardust with Alan Braxe and Benjamin Diamond. In 1998, Stardust released their only song, the chart hit "Music Sounds Better With You".[21]

1999–2003: Discovery

Daft Punk's second album, Discovery, was released in 2001. The duo said it was an attempt to reconnect with the playful, open-minded attitude associated with the discovery phase of childhood.[7] The album reached No. 2 in the UK, and its lead single, "One More Time", was a hit. The song is heavily autotuned and compressed.[7] The singles "Digital Love" and "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" were also successful in the UK and on the US Dance Chart, and "Face to Face" hit number one on the US club play charts.

Discovery created a new generation of Daft Punk fans. It also saw Daft Punk debut their distinctive robot costumes; they had previously worn Halloween masks or bags for promotional appearances.[22] Discovery was later named one of the best albums of the decade by publications including Pitchfork[23] and Resident Advisor.[24] In 2020, Rolling Stone included it at number 236 in its list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".[25] In 2021, Pitchfork cited Discovery as the centrepiece of Daft Punk's career, "an album that transcended the robots' club roots and rippled through the decades that followed".[26]

Daft Punk partnered with the Japanese manga artist Leiji Matsumoto to create Interstella 5555, a feature-length animation set to Discovery. The first four episodes were shown on Toonami in 2001, and the finished film was released on DVD in 2003.[27] That December, Daft Punk released Daft Club, a compilation of Discovery remixes.[28] In 2001, Daft Punk released a 45-minute excerpt from a Daftendirektour performance as Alive 1997.[29]

2004–2007: Human After All and Alive 2007

Human After All: Remixes.[32]

On 21 May 2006, Daft Punk premiered a film, Daft Punk's Electroma, at the Cannes Film Festival sidebar Director's Fortnight.[33] The film does not include Daft Punk's music. Midnight screenings of the film were held in Paris theaters starting from March 2007.[34]

For 48 dates across 2006 and 2007, Daft Punk performed the Alive 2006/2007 world tour, performing a "megamix" of their music from a large LED-fronted pyramid. The tour was acclaimed[35] and is credited for bringing dance music to a wider audience, especially in North America.[36][37] The Guardian journalist Gabriel Szatan likened it to how the Beatles' 1964 performance on The Ed Sullivan Show had brought British rock and roll to the American mainstream.[36]

Daft Punk's performance in Paris was released as their second live album,

Grammy Awards for Alive 2007 and its single "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger".[41]

2008–2011: Tron: Legacy

Daft Punk in DJ Hero

Daft Punk made a surprise appearance at the

50th Grammy Awards on 10 February 2008, and appeared with rapper Kanye West to perform a reworked version of "Stronger" on stage at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.[42] It was the first televised Daft Punk live performance.[42]

In 2008, Daft Punk returned to Paris to work on new material. Winter also stepped down as their manager to focus attention on his Ed Banger Records label and his work as Busy P.[43] He stated in a later interview that Daft Punk were working with an unspecified management company in Los Angeles. The duo held its Daft Arts production office at the Jim Henson Studios complex in Hollywood.[44] In 2008, Daft Punk placed 38th in a worldwide official poll of DJ Mag after debuting at position 71 in the year before.[45] Daft Punk provided new mixes for the video game DJ Hero, and appeared in the game as playable characters.[46]

At the 2009

San Diego Comic-Con, it was announced that Daft Punk had composed 24 tracks for the film Tron: Legacy.[47] Daft Punk's score was arranged and orchestrated by Joseph Trapanese.[48] The band collaborated with him for two years on the score, from pre-production to completion. The score features an 85-piece orchestra, recorded at AIR Lyndhurst Studios in London.[49] Joseph Kosinski, director of the film, referred to the score as a mixture of orchestral and electronic elements.[50] Daft Punk also make a cameo as disc jockey programs wearing their trademark robot helmets within the film's virtual world.[51] The soundtrack album was released on 6 December 2010.[52] A music video for "Derezzed" premiered on the MTV Networks on the same day the album was released.[53] The video, which features Olivia Wilde as the character Quorra in specially shot footage, along with images of Daft Punk in Flynn's Arcade, was later made available for purchase from the iTunes Store and included in the DVD and Blu-ray releases of the film. Walt Disney Records released a remix album, Tron: Legacy Reconfigured, on 5 April 2011.[54]

In 2010, Daft Punk were admitted into the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres, an order of merit of France. Bangalter and Homem-Christo were individually awarded the rank of Chevalier (knight).[55] On October of that year, Daft Punk made a surprise guest appearance during the encore of Phoenix's show at Madison Square Garden in New York City. They played a medley of "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" and "Around the World" before the song segued into Phoenix's song "1901". The duo also included elements of their tracks "Rock'n Roll", "Human After All", and "Together", one of Bangalter's releases as a member of Together.[56] They produced N.E.R.D.'s 2010 song "Hypnotize U".[57]

It features Jay-Z and contains "The Son of Flynn" from the Tron: Legacy soundtrack;[79] it was once intended to be a single promoting Tron: Legacy.[80] In April 2015, Daft Punk appeared in a short tribute to Rodgers as part of a documentary on his life, Nile Rodgers: From Disco to Daft Punk.[81] In June, a documentary, Daft Punk Unchained, was released.[82]

2016–2020: Final projects and appearances

Light-up outfits worn at the encore of the Alive 2007 tour performances

Daft Punk appeared on the 2016 singles "Starboy" and "I Feel It Coming" by Canadian R&B singer the Weeknd;[83][84] "Starboy" topped the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Daft Punk's only US number-one song, and "I Feel It Coming" reached number four.[85][86] In 2017, Soma Records released a previously unreleased remix of the Daft Punk track "Drive", as part of a compilation featuring various artists.[87][88]

In February 2017, Daft Punk launched a

pop-up shop in Hollywood, California, featuring memorabilia, artwork, and a display of the various costumes the duo has worn over the years.[89] The duo also performed with the Weeknd at the 59th Annual Grammy Awards on 12 February 2017.[90]

In the years following the Starboy collaborations, Bangalter and Homem-Christo worked solo as producers appearing on several projects.[91][92][93][94] On 21 June 2017, the Australian band Parcels released the song "Overnight", produced and co-written by Daft Punk.[95] It was written after Daft Punk saw Parcels perform and invited the members to their studio. This became Daft Punk's final production as a duo.[96] Between April 9 and August 11, 2019, an electronic exhibition based on Daft Punk's song "Technologic" was displayed at the Philharmonie de Paris, featuring costumes, guitars and other elements.[97]

In an interview with alt.news 26:46 in early 2024, W. F. Quinn Smith, a session musician who had served as the percussionist on Random Access Memories, claimed Daft Punk had begun work on another studio album in 2018, saying he had participated in experimental early recording sessions. Quinn said he has continued to check in on the status of the album, but the project has remained in limbo.[98]

2021–present: Disbandment and post-breakup activity

On 22 February 2021, Daft Punk released a video on their YouTube channel titled "Epilogue".[99] The video features a scene from their 2006 film Electroma, in which one robot explodes and the other walks away; a title card created with Warren Fu reads "1993–2021" while an excerpt of Daft Punk's song "Touch" plays.[99][1] Later that day, Daft Punk's longtime publicist Kathryn Frazier confirmed that they had split, but did not give a reason.[1] The news led to a surge in Daft Punk sales, with digital album purchases rising by 2,650%.[100] Their friend and collaborator Todd Edwards confirmed that Bangalter and Homem-Christo remained active separately.[101] He later said that the duo were "going in different directions", and that Homem-Christo was more drawn to hip-hop and Bangalter was interested in film.[102] Bangalter and Homem-Christo still share a studio and equipment.[103]

On 22 February 2022, one year after their disbandment, Daft Punk announced a 25th-anniversary edition of Homework. It included a remix album, Homework (Remixes), which was later released in physical formats. The same day as the anniversary announcement, Daft Punk broadcast a Twitch stream of their performance at the Mayan Theater in Los Angeles from their 1997 Daftendirektour. The video featured previously unreleased footage of the duo without costumes. Daft Punk released behind-the-scenes "archives" from the D.A.F.T. DVD and album reissues throughout 2022.[104]

On 22 February 2023, Daft Punk announced a 10th-anniversary edition of Random Access Memories. The reissue was released on 12 May 2023 and contained a second disc with 35 minutes of previously unreleased outtakes and demos. "Infinity Repeating (2013 Demo)", featuring Julian Casablancas and the Voidz, was released as a single.[105][106] The song had previously been talked about by Casablancas in interviews years prior.[107] It was released alongside a music video and was called the duo's "last song ever" in press releases.[108] Later that year, the duo also announced a "Drumless Edition" of the album which released on 17 November 2023, removing all drums and percussive elements from the original album's 13 tracks.[109]

In April 2023, Bangalter released a solo work, the orchestral ballet score Mythologies. He gave interviews about the project and allowed himself to be photographed without a mask. He cited concerns about the progress of artificial intelligence and other technology as to why Daft Punk split, saying: "As much as I love this character, the last thing I would want to be, in the world we live in, in 2023, is a robot." Bangalter said Daft Punk had wanted to not "spoil the narrative" while they were active, but now felt more comfortable revealing parts of their creative process.[110][103] Reflecting on the split, Bangalter said he was "relieved and happy to look back and say: 'Okay, we didn't mess it up too much.'"[111]

On 22 February 2024, commemorating the third anniversary of their split and coining the term "Daft Punk Day", Daft Punk announced a Twitch broadcast of Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem.[112][113] In addition to this broadcast, a vinyl repress of the film's tie-in single "Something About Us" will be released on Record Store Day in 2024.[114]

Artistry

Musical style

Daft Punk's musical style has mainly been described as house,[115][116] French house,[116] electronic,[22] dance,[116][117] and disco.[116][22] Sean Cooper of AllMusic describes their musical style as a blend of acid house, techno, pop, indie rock, hip hop, progressive house, funk, and electro.[116] The Guardian critic Alexis Petridis described their approach to music and art as "magpie"-like, with extensive sampling.[36] Daft Punk saw their style as "retrofuturist", incorporating genres from earlier decades into what the New York Times described as "an increasingly grand vision of joyful populism".[103]

In the early 1990s, Daft Punk drew inspiration from rock and acid house in the UK. Homem-Christo referred to Screamadelica by Primal Scream as the record that "put everything together" in terms of genre.[118] In 2009, Bangalter named Andy Warhol as one of Daft Punk's early influences.[119] On the Homework track "Teachers", Daft Punk list musicians who influenced them, including the funk musician George Clinton, the rapper and producer Dr Dre, and Chicago house and Detroit techno artists including Paul Johnson,[36] Romanthony and Todd Edwards.[7] Homem-Christo said: "Their music had a big effect on us. The sound of their productions—the compression, the sound of the kick drum and Romanthony's voice, the emotion and soul—is part of how we sound today."[7]

Image

For most public and media appearances, Daft Punk wore costumes that concealed their faces.[126] Bangalter said they wanted the focus to be on their music,[127] and that masks allowed them to control their image while retaining their anonymity and protecting their personal lives.[8] He said that the 1974 film Phantom of the Paradise, in which the title character prominently wears a mask, was "the foundation for a lot of what we're about artistically".[128][129] Daft Punk were also fans of the 1970s band Space, known for wearing space suits with helmets that hid their appearance.[130] The mystery of Daft Punk's identity and their elaborate disguises added to their popularity.[118] The costumes have been compared to the makeup of Kiss and the leather jacket worn by Iggy Pop.[131]

Bangalter performing in 2006

During promotional appearances in the 1990s, Daft Punk would conceal their faces with an assortment of masks.[22] Although they allowed a camera crew to film them for a French arts program at the time, Daft Punk did not wish to speak on screen.[132] According to Orla Lee-Fisher, the head of marketing at Virgin Records UK, in their early career Daft Punk would only consent to photographs without masks while they were DJing.[133] In 1997, Bangalter said they had a "general rule about not appearing in videos".[127]

In 2001, Daft Punk began wearing robot costumes for promotional appearances and performances for Discovery, debuted in a special presentation during

Alterian, Inc. They were capable of various LED effects.[136] Wigs were originally attached to both helmets, but Daft Punk removed them moments before unveiling them.[22] Bangalter said the helmets were hot but that he became used to this.[131] Later helmets were fitted with ventilators to prevent overheating.[137]

Homem-Christo performing in 2007

With the release of Human After All, Daft Punk wore simplified helmets and black leather jackets and trousers designed by Hedi Slimane.[118] Bangalter said Daft Punk did not want to repeat themselves and were interested in "developing a persona that merges fiction and reality".[7] On the set of Electroma, Daft Punk were interviewed with their backs turned, and in 2006 they wore cloth bags over their heads during a televised interview.[138] They said the use of cloth bags had been a spontaneous decision, reflecting their willingness to experiment with their image.[139] Daft Punk wore the robot costumes in their performances at the 2008, 2014, and 2017 Grammy Awards. During the 2014 ceremony, they accepted their awards on stage in the outfits, with Pharrell and Paul Williams speaking on their behalf.[140][90]

Daft Punk used the robot outfits to merge the characteristics of humans and machines.[141] Bangalter said that the personas were initially the result of shyness, but that they became exciting for the audience, "the idea of being an average guy with some kind of superpower".[118] He described it as an advanced version of glam, "where it's definitely not you".[118] After Daft Punk's split, Bangalter likened the robot personas to a "like a Marina Abramović performance art installation that lasted for 20 years".[110] He denied that the robots represented "an unquestioning embrace of digital culture", and said: "We tried to use these machines to express something extremely moving that a machine cannot feel, but a human can. We were always on the side of humanity and not on the side of technology."[110]

They were unable to do so because of contractual obligations regarding their later appearance at the 2013 MTV Video Music Awards. According to Stephen Colbert, Daft Punk were unaware of any exclusivity agreement and were halted by MTV executives the morning prior to the taping.[148] In 2015, Daft Punk appeared alongside several other musicians to announce their co-ownership of the music service Tidal at its relaunch.[149]

Kanye West's 2007 song "Stronger" from the album Graduation borrows the melody and features a vocal sample of Daft Punk's "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger". Daft Punk's robotic costumes make an appearance in the music video for "Stronger".[39] The track "Daftendirekt" from Daft Punk's album Homework was sampled for the Janet Jackson song "So Much Betta" from her 2008 album Discipline.[158]
