Show notes

Our season-long dissection of Daft Punk begins now!

In episode one, we trace Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo’s origins in Paris - from their rock band Darlin’ to their discovery of electronic music and first single “The New Wave.” Then we break down their breakthrough track “Da Funk,” revealing what it shares with Beethoven’s most famous symphony and how to build its iconic synth sound from scratch.
