A bit more about it:

Daft Punk are a French electronic music duo formed in Paris in 1993 by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter.
They achieved popularity in the late 1990s as part of the French house movement; they also had success in the years following, combining elements of house music with funk, techno, disco, rock and synthpop.
They have worn ornate helmets and gloves to assume robot personas in most public appearances since 1999 and rarely grant interviews or appear on television.
They are using drum machines and synthesizers to create a blend of electronica, danse, house and disco music.



In 2013, Daft Punk left Virgin for Columbia Records, and released their fourth album, Random Access Memories, to acclaim; lead single "Get Lucky" reached the top 10 in the charts of 32 countries.
Random Access Memories won five Grammy Awards in 2014, including Album of the Year and Record of the Year for "Get Lucky".
In 2016, Daft Punk gained their first number one on the Billboard Hot 100 with the song "Starboy", a collaboration with The Weeknd.
As of 2015, Daft Punk had sold over 12 million albums worldwide.
Rolling Stone ranked them No. 12 on its list of the 20 Greatest Duos of All Time.
