Leaving Virgin or not, no "Digital Love" on a DP greatest hits collection ain't a DP greatest hits collection.

Too right.

one month passes...

The show at Coachella was easily the best concert I have *ever* seen. The lights, my god, the lights. It was like a constantly shifting star gate sequence from 2001 crossed with Tron, all perfectly choreographed to the most amazing mash up of all their hits with really intense edits and pacing. They appear as robots on the screens, and they seem to be talking to each other, but can they really hear each other? Did they just push one button? Are they using Ableton? Who knows. Who cares? Just amazing.

think it may be worth going to Global Gathering in July just to see them!

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 07:39 (eighteen years ago) link

new material?

― the Enrique who acts like some kind of good taste gestapo (Enrique), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 08:21 (eighteen years ago) link

seemingly no

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 08:26 (eighteen years ago) link

not doing much to disprove the notion that global could have taken place in 1999...

― the Enrique who acts like some kind of good taste gestapo (Enrique), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 08:30 (eighteen years ago) link

yes, it's very Britcentric. but they do have Digitalism, Justice blah blah lower down the list tho.

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 08:39 (eighteen years ago) link

Whoah...

― Mark (MarkR), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 13:13 (eighteen years ago) link

I wish

the global thing can be crazy expensive. VIP?

― RJG (RJG), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 13:19 (eighteen years ago) link

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 13:40 (eighteen years ago) link

I'm mainly posting these as a service to those who have the chance to see them. DO NOT MISS IT.

Wow great pics!

― van igloo (van smack), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 23:37 (eighteen years ago) link

All found via flickr. Also read that they were using synths, midi controllers and ableton.

vaguely: "Daft Punk's 'Electroma' is visual and musical and which follows the history of two robots in their search to become human."

that looks amazing.

anyway, what's with the re-issue of "human after all" coming out tomorrow?

― Christopher Costello (CGC), Monday, 8 May 2006 21:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Hehehe, I should have guessed my source would have been here already. ;-)

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 8 May 2006 21:16 (eighteen years ago) link

And can someone remind me? Wasn't 'Human After All' a huge dud? Is all forgiven?

― pleased to mitya (mitya), Monday, 8 May 2006 21:20 (eighteen years ago) link

it was all sung in english, as far as I can remember, so what's the prob?

― RJG (RJG), Monday, 8 May 2006 21:21 (eighteen years ago) link

there's an amateur video of the entire coachella performance making its way around the torrent sites (themixingbowl.org and others)

the video's not top quality but the performance sure is

― W i l l (common_person), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 18:02 (eighteen years ago) link

The new er... direction of Daft Punk makes a lot more sense after seeing the single videos somehow. Almost makes it seem like they were first to the supposed trend going on in french house (wot I read about on Stylus... apart from Uffie I've heard like, _none_ of it yet) everyone going for a more rock-inclined in-the-red repetetive brutality in their tracks.

― fandango (fandango), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 19:24 (eighteen years ago) link

/heads over to justice myspace to check "the fuss" late as ever..

― fandango (fandango), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 19:27 (eighteen years ago) link

all image and no substance. i still don't get the love for daft punk.

― frenchbloke (frenchbloke), Wednesday, 10 May 2006 19:33 (eighteen years ago) link

the supposed trend going on in french house is more than ten years old!

― FLOWING STRAIGHT FROM THE SURVIVAL SCROLL (vahid), Thursday, 11 May 2006 05:11 (eighteen years ago) link

what makes you think there is no substance, frenchbloke? i'm not sure what you mean exactly. no depth to the music? or what depth there is is jsut derived from other things?

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Thursday, 11 May 2006 09:13 (eighteen years ago) link

three months pass...

hearing snippets of their live set in Ireland down the phone now courtesy of kv_nol. soundin' GOOOOOOD.

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Friday, 25 August 2006 19:52 (seventeen years ago) link

one month passes...

They've added a new member and are now called Sensus, apparently.

― Jay Vee's Return (Manon_69), Thursday, 5 October 2006 05:53 (seventeen years ago) link

that video was awesome!

not

― HUNTA-V (vahid), Thursday, 5 October 2006 06:06 (seventeen years ago) link

Adding a house beat to that would make it the best thing ever.

― I.M. From Hollywood (i_m_from_hollywood), Thursday, 5 October 2006 07:12 (seventeen years ago) link

WHAT ARE WE DOING HERE?
WITHOUT A REAL ATMOSPEHRE?

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Thursday, 5 October 2006 09:31 (seventeen years ago) link
