Daft Punk is an electronic music duo that first appeared on the French house music scene in 1993. Consisting of Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter, the two quickly won acclaim for their eccentric blending skills and futuristic forms. By 1995, Daft Punk had already earned its first worldwide hit with the single Da Funk. They went on to release their debut album Homework in 1997 under Virgin records. The album reached the top ten in several countries around the world. In the following years, Daft Punk would constantly reinvent themselves, guaranteeing their fans were always on their toes.

In a bid to maintain some level of anonymity, Daft Punk resorted to wearing Hedi Slimane-styled YSL tuxedos and robot helmets. Their outfit became a distinct part of their identity, visual aesthetic, and general mythos. Daft Punk experienced its first serious downturn in 2005, which prompted them to take time off. The duo officially made a comeback in 2013. However, they left Virgin records for Columbia. Under the label, they released their fourth and final album Random Access Memories. The album was a critical and commercial success, earning a Grammy Award for Record of the Year. Unfortunately, Daft Punk announced their split in 2021. While they will be missed, the group has certainly established a legacy as one of dance music’s most iconic acts.
