Daft Punk Calls It Quits
Daft Punk Break Up | Pitchfork:
Daft Punk, the Parisian duo responsible for some of the most popular dance and pop songs ever made, have split. They broke the news with an 8-minute video titled “Epilogue," excerpted from their 2006 film Electroma. Asked if Daft Punk were no more, their longtime publicist Kathryn Frazier confirmed the news to Pitchfork but gave no reason for the breakup.
An absolute heartbreaker for a Monday morning.
Here’s the announcement video.
I’ve got a lot of feelings about this, as Daft Punk as an act always seemed to match my tastes both musically and visually.
While I process those thoughts, I’m going to share Interstella 5555, which I’ve always thought was their magnum opus, matching their amazing album Discovery with 70’ throwback animation.
