Daft Punk is an electronic music duo consisting of French musicians Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo (born February 8, 1974) and Thomas Bangalter (born January 3, 1975).[1] The duo is considered one of the most successful electronic music collaborations of all time, both in album sales and in critical acclaim.[2] After Daft Punk reached significant popularity in the late 1990s house movement in France, other artists such as Air, Cassius, and Dimitri from Paris began to receive a similar amount of attention.

Daft Punk is also credited with producing songs that were considered essential in the French house scene. They were managed from 1996 to 2008 by Pedro Winter (Busy P), the head of Ed Banger Records.

Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo met in 1987 on the grounds of the Lycée Carnot, a secondary school in Paris.[1] The two became good friends and later recorded demo tracks with others from the school.[5] This eventually led to the formation of the guitar-based group called Darlin' with Laurent Brancowitz in 1992.[6] Bangalter and de Homem-Christo played bass and guitar, respectively, while Brancowitz performed on drums.[7]

The indie rock trio had branded themselves after The Beach Boys song of the same name, which they covered along with an original composition.[8] Stereolab released both tracks on a multi-artist Duophonic Records EP and invited the band to open for stage shows in the United Kingdom.[8][9] Bangalter felt that "The rock n' roll thing we did was pretty average, I think. It was so brief, maybe six months, four songs and two gigs and that was it."[10] A negative review in Melody Maker subsequently dubbed the music "a bunch of daft punk." Instead of dismissing the review, Bangalter and de Homem-Christo found it to be amusing.[5] As the latter stated, "We struggled so long to find [the name] Darlin', and this happened so quickly."[11] Darlin' soon disbanded, leaving Brancowitz to pursue other efforts with Phoenix.[6] Bangalter and de Homem-Christo formed Daft Punk and experimented with drum machines and synthesizers.

Starting on September 13 and ending November 9, 2004, Daft Punk devoted six weeks to creating new material.[15] The duo released the album Human After All in March 2005. Reviews were mixed, mostly citing its overly repetitive nature and seemingly rushed recording. The singles taken from this album were "Robot Rock", "Technologic", "Human After All" and "The Prime Time of Your Life". The earliest official statement from Daft Punk concerning the album was "we believe that Human After All speaks for itself."

A Daft Punk anthology CD/DVD entitled Musique Vol. 1 1993–2005 was released on April 4, 2006. It contains new music videos for "The Prime Time of Your Life" and "Robot Rock (Maximum Overdrive)". Daft Punk also released a remix album of Human After All called Human After All: Remixes. A limited edition included two kubricks of Daft Punk as robots
.
On May 21, 2006, Daft Punk premiered their first directed film, Daft Punk's Electroma at the Cannes Film Festival sidebar Director's Fortnight.[16] The film does not include their own music, which is a first for the duo considering their previous DVD and film releases (D.A.F.T. for Homework and Interstella 5555 for Discovery). Midnight screenings of the film were shown in Paris theaters starting from the end of March 2007.[17] Initial public comments have since been positive.[18]

Daft Punk released their second live album titled Alive 2007 on November 19, 2007. It contains the duo's performance in Paris from their Alive 2007 tour. The album includes a 50-page book showcasing photographs shot while on tour.[19] The live version of "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" from Alive 2007 was released as a single.[20] A music video for the single directed by Olivier Gondry features footage shot by 250 audience members at Daft Punk's Brooklyn appearance at KeySpan Park, Coney Island.[21]

Following the Alive 2007 tour, Daft Punk focused on other projects. A 2008 interview with Pedro Winter revealed that the duo returned to their Paris studio to work on new material. Winter also stepped down from managing Daft Punk to focus attention on his Ed Banger Records label and his work as Busy P.[22] He stated in a later interview that the duo are working with an unspecified management company in Los Angeles.[4] In 2008 Daft Punk also placed 38th in a worldwide official poll of DJ Magazine after debuting at position 71 in 2007

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Daft Punk est un groupe français de musique électronique originaire de Versailles. Actifs depuis 1993, Thomas Bangalter et Guy-Manuel de Homem Christo, les deux membres, ont allié à leurs sons Electro et Techno des tonalités Rock, Disco, Groove ou encore House. Une des originalités des Daft Punk est la culture de leur notoriété d'artistes indépendants anonymes, à l'aide de casques et de costumes.

La rencontre de Thomas Bangalter et Guy-Manuel de Homem Christo se fait en 1987 au lycée Carnot à Paris.

En 1992, les deux compères fondent un groupe de rock, Darlin', avec lequel ils enregistrent leur premier single sur le label indépendant anglais Duophonic. Cependant le succès n'est pas au rendez-vous, le titre se vend à environ 1 500 exemplaires et le groupe n'a quasiment aucun impact sur la scène française. Une critique du magazine britannique Melody Maker ira même jusqu'à qualifier la musique du groupe de "daft punk", que l'on pourrait traduire par "punk débile" ou "punk timbré".

En 1993, lors d'une rave party au parc Eurodisney, les Darlin' rencontrent les responsables du label écossais Soma. Entre temps, Thomas et Guy-Manuel ont commencé à travailler sur des machines électroniques telles que le sampleur. Le duo enregistrera une année plus tard sous le nom Daft Punk le maxi 3 titres The New Wave / Assault / Alive. Les sonorités y sont clairement électroniques et à défaut de succès retentissant, la "techno adolescente française" des Daft Punk retient l'attention de quelques journalistes et critiques anglais. L'année 1995 est celle de leur premier succès, le groupe sort le maxi électro-rock Da Funk / Rollin' & Scratchin' . Le succès est immédiat, et le titre se répand petit à petit dans les clubs d'Europe.

Thomas crée son propre label, Roulé, sur lequel il sort le très remarqué Trax On Da Rocks. Tout s'enchaîne pour les Daft Punk qui font la première partie des Chemical Brothers à Londres. En France, ils sont repérés par la maison de disque Virgin ; c'est ainsi qu'ils font une apparition sur la compilation Sourcelab vol.2 du label Source (qui fait partie de Virgin) avec le titre Musique, en 1996. Source est dès lors le premier label à diffuser les Daft Punk en France.

Le 13 janvier 1997, suite à la sortie du single Da Funk, les Daft Punk sortent le 20 janvier 1997 leur 1er album Homework. Le succès est extrêmement rapide : 2 millions d'exemplaires se vendent dans 35 pays différents en l'espace de 2 mois1. On y retrouve ce qui fait le succès des Daft Punk, un mélange de sons d'origines diverses et variées, de la House aux rythmes Techno directement inspirés de la scène de Chicago. La presse généraliste et spécialisée fait l'éloge de l'album, qui conquiert rapidement la jeunesse internationale. Le titre Around the World (dont le clip est signé par le réalisateur Michel Gondry), reprend une ligne de basse rappelant le tube électronique des années 1970 Popcorn, fait un tabac dans les charts européens et nord-américains.

En 2001, Daft Punk sort son 1er album live intitulé Alive 1997 enregistré à Birmingham en Angleterre, contenant une seule piste longue de 45 minutes sans pause, on y retrouve quelques tubes ainsi qu'un remix de l'intro de Homework.

En 2001, quatre ans après le phénomène Homework, ils reviennent avec un 2e album intitulé Discovery. À la fois encensé et critiqué, il entraîne des controverses aussi bien chez les fans de la première heure que chez les journalistes. Très orienté Pop voire Disco, l'album s'inspire grandement de certaines références culturelles des années 1980. Il laisse aussi une place importante aux voix vocodées : Thomas et Guy-Manuel s'essayent eux-mêmes au chant sur plusieurs titres (tels que Digital Love et Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger). Le succès commercial est là encore particulièrement au rendez-vous. Le groupe obtient deux nominations aux Grammy Awards en 2001.

Le 14 mars 2005 sort le 3e album des Daft Punk, Human After All. Celui-ci marque un tournant dans la carrière des deux androïdes. Alors que le duo revendique par le titre de l'album (Humains après tout en français) son "humanité", l'album semble évoquer la fuite de notre société vers la plus complète déshumanisation. Certains titres comme Prime Time of Your Life, Television Rules the Nation ou encore Technologic, dégagent quelques clés du concept de Human After All, que les deux musiciens refusent de commenter : "Notre album parle de lui-même" est leur seule déclaration à ce propos

En 2007 sort l'album Alive 2007, qui leur vaudra une nomination dans la catégorie Spectacle Musical de l'année aux Victoires de la Musique. Il reporte le live à Paris-Bercy le 14 juin 2007 et comporte 12 titres remixes des 3 albums studios
