While we're sad to see the robots go, we thought we'd pay our respects to an iconic act that has changed the music world for the better. And it's a pretty amazing legacy: more than most artists and groups hope to achieve in their careers. It features a scene of Homem-Christo and Bangalter from their 2006 film Electroma with a title card and the song "Touch" playing at the end.Īlthough the film is unclear as to why the robots called it quits, it reassures fans that the French DJs are aware of the legacy they've left behind. They released a video on YouTube to go along with the news, called Epilogue. Last month, Daft Punk announced their retirement from the music scene. Several artists - including Skrillex, Kanye West, LCD Soundsystem, and Panda Bear - consider them heroes.
The duo even invented the concept of the bedroom producer when they released their 1997 debut Homework. With electronic sounds leaking into today's pop, rock, rap, and even country records, it's not an overstatement to say Daft Punk had some influence in shaping modern music. With six Grammys and two world tours under their belts, they've brought their own style of funk and mechanical melodies to the EDM world. Who knew that from 1993 to 2021 two talented robots would take the world by storm with their unique dance music? Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, otherwise known as Daft Punk, have been pioneers in the dance and electronic genres for almost three decades.
