About this episode
This episode explores Daft Punk's influence through their works Interstella 5555 and Electroma, alongside discussions on music marketing and cinema.
On this week’s episode, we strap in for zero G with a Daft Punk double serving of Interstella 5555 and Electroma. We discuss the French robots’ god-tier brand of musical marketing, childhood obsession with anime turned music video rock opera, making slow core cinema in leather pants, riding the launch wave of MTV’s embryonic split into MTV 2, and recasting Jeff Bridges as the Obi-Wan Kenobi of Tron. Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem (2003) Electroma (2006) Tron: Legacy (2010)
