damn they are kind of the only real icons of the EDM genre that most people know or recognize.

is that the group that did the techno video in the 90s where a guy in a dog mask was wandering around a city at night? Catchy tune that was.

But seriously, Daft Punk was an influential pair of dudes. Helped give us more Kanye, helped out The Weeknd, "Get Lucky" was a #1, they've won 6 Grammys, recorded a feature film soundtrack, are probably the best-selling dance/electronic group of all time (for now). They lived the life and left their mark.

This is freaking wild how they did their sampling.



I would never have gotten the beat they did out of just listening to this.

This one tattoo artist I follow had just revealed a Daft Punk painting he had been commissioned to paint as he has been spending a lot of time painting lately because of covid.
