Daft Punk!

daft punk always seemed pretty "normal" to me. . - as in, not twisted psychedelic.

While his music is good, I wouldn't say it fits the 'complexity' bill. More just well made dance music that isnt too over the top. Apparently he's one of the better live electronic performers around too

I no longer have to be jealous of you felix... I just read today that they are coming to Melbourne, they're playing a show apparently in December, a few days before Christmas. I've heard rumors like this before but the talk around town is that this is definitely happening this time.

I'm not sure if I'll ever need to go out again after this... seriously.

DAFT FUCKING PUNK!
 
weird coincidence or i read this yesterday and forgot

Computers create own musical compositions

MARYLAND HEIGHTS, Mo., June 17 (UPI) -- A computer scientist in Missouri is set to release a musical album created almost entirely by computers with artificial intelligence.

While Stephen Thaler of Imagination Engines Inc. did not provide his company's advanced Creativity Machines with musical samples, he did offer visual cues the machines used to design their own musical album, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch said Sunday.

The Maryland Heights, Mo., scientist simply filmed himself on a Web cam listening to the sounds the computers made and either smiled or frowned depending on how pleasing they were.

"Anything that sounded like country music or garbage I discarded or gave a low score," Thaler said.

The advanced computers then used that critique to create their own melodies that were then blended by a human musician into 14 original songs.

The Post-Dispatch said those songs, which range from techno to a Top-40 style ballad, will soon be released by Thaler on an album entitled "Song of the Neurons."

Excellent news!

Seriously, it was one of the best weekends of my life. The Chemical Brothers on Saturday (main stage), Daft Punk on Sunday (in a tent).

Amy - it was on the banks of Loch Ness, and you're right, it was an awesome location for this.

Roll on next year.

P.S. I'm delighted that you're back to loving me again, Atlas.

i already have a ticket :)

Oh my lord!! DP are playing in Melbourne (Aus) on the 22nd of December. What a Christmas present.

I am so excited I could pee my pants. One more time.

edit: I just bothered to read all the other posts. I was in a small amount of doubt before reading your post, Hoptis. Now it is confirmed. YESSUM.

I don't think Events will allow something a thread so far away though. Even if it is DP. Spoilsports.

Does anyone know when tickets go on sale? I have googled and cannot find anything, other than that they are playing at the Music Bowl. Mods - sorry if this is OT. I shall desist if event discussion is not allowed.

Ohh hells yea. I heard about that. Hopefully they play Sydney too.
 
I'm begrudgingly moving this over to the electronic forum. ;)

I was just reading up on my favorite duo... they went to a rave at Disneyland Resort in Paris? How fucking cool would that venue be?!
 
love the punks

got lots of live sets from them, as well as video of coachella and even further sets.

seen them a ton of times.
 
Daft Punk are so dope. My 2 favorite albums of theirs are Human After All and Homework. Everyone needs to see them live at least once in their lifetime. I can't wait to see them again this year. They were amazing at coachella last year.
