What's up with Daft Punk?

TOUR DENIAL
11 Feb 2009 | from www.daftalive.com
DENIAL. Daft Punk is not playing in Shangri.
The band are not touring this year, and at no point were they approached for this show, and at no point was there ever a possibility that they would do such a show.
The band and those around them were made aware of the scam in the last day or so, and are very upset that there are crooks out there trying to rip off the bands loyal fans.
All daft punk shows are announced on the bands official my space sight, and we urge fans to check the sight before purchasing tkts for shows.
The band's representatives are currently looking into what future action can be taken regarding the fraudsters responsible for the current scam
Daft punk look forward to visiting and performing in china as part of their next world tour, in 2010 or 2011.

im guessing that date's meant to be 2nd Nov 09

I think it's from a different ticket scam earlier in the year. These hoaxers have form.

Yep, that was in February.

One of the links ^up there identifies this dude as the evil genius behind today's hoax.

If that watering can robot head is growing out of his head then he might well be part of the Daft Punk crew.

No way in hell are Daft Punk playing Yankee Stadium.

^^^^^
OTM

Just for shits and giggles:

There's no game that night, but there is the following day which would mean a 0.00001% chance of them being able to pull off a show there.

I've seen Daft Punk in smaller (2,000) and larger (8,000) capacity venues and although they deserve it, there's no way there going to play in a 50,000+ stadium.

The Yankees have moved across the road, though - I understand that the old stadium is being maintained purely for Daft Punk concerts

Doesn't mean it's any truer, but the NME are reporting this now.

Oh come one NME, do you even try to verify the shit you report now. I say it again, no fucking way is Daft Punk playing Yankee fucking Stadium.

Disappointed they left out the gig at that 150,000-capacity stadium in Pyongyang.

Unreleased track from '94, really raw and heavy:

I can't figure out if this is a good thing or not.

To me, it seems, it is not.

v interested in theory, but has Murphy produced much / are his collaborative skills going to bring much with/out of electronic producers, rather than bands recording through amps? There’s the first Juan Maclean album, but that’s probably heavily Goldsworthy, as far as hands-on production goes, I’d guess.

I wouldn't assume that, considering Murphy and Maclean go way back pre-DFA and Murphy brought Maclean into the DFA fold.

(Plus, I'm pretty sure I've heard Juan talk about James being fairly hands-on with his stuff.)

maybe he is going to try to do "human after all" but good.

I know, but Murphy could have been bro-ing out and arranging and suggesting things, while Goldsworthy pushed buttons, is what I was thinking

So I guess, this dude can be added to Jams Murphy and Nile Rodgers on the list of rumored Daft Punk collaboraters

This dude! Paul Williams is more than that, then again I am Mr. Grew Up With the Muppets and all.

daft punk dudes i think are the next kevin shields

these guys are like 35 now, they already released a statement of feeling sort of over this shit w/ "human after all", and it's hard to imagine what they could do to top the space pyramid shit

I was all '35?' and then I checked and went uh a bit. Somehow I had it in my head they were always a little older than me!

once you build a pyramid, you're p much done-- ask the egyptians or the aztecs

Didn't stop Dick Clark.

they're MY age??

*lies down on floor and hyperventilates*

if it makes anybody feel any better, the last time they wrote a good song they were...24?

35?! They're practically ready for their Rick Rubin moment.

only a sex tape scandal can make them relevant again

Yeah but it would look something like this:

daft punk/mbv collab would be wicked overhyped, never get past the demo stage, and i'd be all over it.

otm

maybe they're working on a time machine

Robot House! (futurama voice)

Disco legend Giorgio Moroder ha revealed that he recorded a “rap” for the new Daft Punk album. During a one-on-one interview at International Music Summit in Ibiza, the producer behind genre-defining songs such as “I Feel Love” and “The Chase” revealed that he recently went into the studio with the French duo.

The robots asked the Munich Machine to go into a vocal booth and speak about his life. In the studio were multiple microphones of various vintages from the ’60s to today. When Moroder asked the engineer why they had so many mics, he replied that the mic they would use would depend on what decade of his life he was speaking about. When Moroder asked if anyone would know the difference, the engineer replied “They will know.”

hahahahaha

lollll

i *want* to believe.

wow.

I kind of like that their using this album as an opportunity to work with all their heroes.

new album shd be have a collab track with each artist named in "teachers"

Just read on the Popjustice forum that there is supposed to be a new single next month called Remona Street.

French magazine 'Tsugi' confirmed the duo will premier the new single July 21st.

I really hope this is true.

because the last 10 years of daft punk have been so amazing?
