| Those glowing suits and helmets for their encore, and the way they were revealed, was the coolest! |

| I just think it's great how they've dodged being swarmed by fans when they walk down the street while being massive stars. Plus, if they can't make it to a show, just pop anyone else in the suit and the show goes on. Very smart move. |

Just like Daft Punk sampled many of their hits from classic disco, soul, funk and rock tracks, their helmets idea is not original. I am trying to find this one 1970s underground disco album, forgot the name unfortunately, its obscure, French underground disco, with a futuristic looking helmet on the cover that resembles Daft Punk's helmet.
Too much disco to go through to find it. |

straight up, dance music is all about sampling + re-inventing... these guys are pioneers on so many levels I don't even know why I'm taking the effort to reply to your post lol
and no, they likely didn't invent costume + performance art... (nor robots, nor science fiction) lol |
