While Daft Punk is famous worldwide on the electronica music scene, the two Parisian deejay's that make up the outfit, robot helmets and all, have ventured into a new realm of indie - film-making.
The release of Electroma, a strange road trip sci-fi styled film, has come with mixed reviews, although popularity for the film is not waning among fans of Daft Punk and independent movie-making.
Electroma may be the first indie movie - that is more like one long and trippy music video - by musicians that contains no dialogue at all, and a soundtrack completely absent of even one note from Daft Punk.
Some critics call it boring, others deem the film interesting, but not worthy of the time investment (unless you are a true Daft Punk fan) and still more hail it as a beautifully strange and engaging film, despite its inaccessibility to the masses, both in concept and distribution.

hey monkey, it's so great to see your back and blogging this site again.
Great story here on Daft Punk and the image is cool. I really like all your links and read many of your stories, including your exclusives!
Would like to see more regular postings because you are a good writer and have a knack for finding cool, weird stuff.
I guess in the human robot world, looks (the helmet) don't matter, but maybe body does:p
