Who are Daft Punk?
Daft Punk was made up of French musicians, Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo.
They met in the mid-’80s in Paris while at school as teenagers.
They released a song under a band named Darlin’ with a third person, but then received a review that called their song: “a daft punky thrash”.
This inspired their new name and they continued producing electronic music as a duo.
Their biggest tracks are Get Lucky, which features Pharrell Williams, and Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.
