Crossover with the talking Kindle.

ok, n/m.. I read "pronunciation" as "punctuation". That makes a lot more sense now.

Yeah, been thinking the same thing. If so, they've done a remarkable job of keeping everything under wraps.

Really? I still don't really know what to think of it.

think the site is a hoax, this is the aerodynamic/obama thing

something to do with an adam freeland edit of 'aerodynamic', doesnt sound radically different apart from the voices over it

yeah just wait til they turn against us. xxp

Ok, Pitchfork asked around and it isn't true. I wanted to believe it, but I should have known it wasn't very likely.

Daft Punk flashmob

I'd like to think this won't be crap, but I don't have much faith.

for some reason, I kinda doubt we will see a new album within, say, the next 10 years. DP seem set to be the Kraftwerk of the 21st century.

Better than Radiohead you mean?

no, as in failing to release anything for the next 20 years, while maintaining some profile with increasingly robotic extravaganzas

they've done 3 albums, live album, greatest hits, film soundtracks, art movie, production for other artists...what's left?

Robopr0n?

a musical?

A table ? Wait, they've already done that.

computer game!

WHY WON't YOU PLAY THE GAAAAAAAME?

i still have faith

show with romanthony and todd edwards live vocals..

Remember, the greatest hits album is called Musique Vol. 1...

The "Volume 1" curse

i would probably just prefer some bangalter or le knight club material and daft punk bow out to be honest, you could argue that "human after all" already started to ruin the myth a bit but those tracks worked really well in the alive tour

Hope you didn't pay for those Daft Punk tickets

Human After All was their best album! xpost

still funny

I saw Sebastien Tellier play a cover of 'Robot Rock' last night

computer game!
