awesomeness is simple, repetitive, happy songs
huge stage show with the lights and pyramid
space helmets

don't look for too much in daft punk. it's just simple, retarded party music.

it's also always done in style:

-robot gear
-uniforms
-live set of mashing up 3 lps
-interstella 5555
-their other videos
-light pyramid show
-action figures
-electroma
-good tunes

daft punk seem to go a long way to enhance their music visually in unique manners. that's something that separates them from a lot of other acts out there: daft punk became icons without being actual celebrities, simply by offering experiences which ppl do not see every day.

while their music might seem repetitive to some, their inventiveness removes them far from being just retarded party music.

ps. i also find discovery to be one the best albums of all time, so i might be biased :)

the fact that they're primarily graphic designers who handle their concepts amazingly well goes a long way.
but yeah i also love their albums

It's all in their overuse of compressors ;)

i think they are awesome because is not the same liking machine generated music and actually seeing some weird robot machines playing the music you like.. and also.. they make you dance: perfect.

Robots are like the best thing in the world after chocolate.. so i love Daft Punk even if there is not going to be another "Homework" again, apparently.

for some time i thought Daft Punk was the alter project of Air jeje.. cute.

also.. im seeing them in 2 weeks and i can't wait!!!!

and.. Electroma looks soo weird.. so great :)
