Its participants began their journey to the world stage 28 years ago.
French electronic music duo Daft Punk is discontinued. This was reported by the American electronic magazine Pitchfork, dedicated to music criticism.
On the occasion of the closure of the project, Daft Punk released an eight-minute video on YouTube called Epilogue. The video is an excerpt from a feature film by the duo Electroma, which follows two robots trying to become humans. At some point, the inscription 1993–2021 appears in the video.
A representative of the duo did not specify whether they would continue to work together under a different name. At the same time, the publication does not exclude that the released video may be the beginning of a new project.
A seven-minute video was posted on the official website of the group, where the dates are shown during the video - the year the group was created and the current day. The music video ends with a picture of a sunset.
Note that the Daft Punk team was created in 1993 by the French Tom Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo. Musicians in their work used sound with elements of disco, synth-pop, house, electro.
