daft punk





my favorite band is daft punk. so i was thrilled that they won 4 grammys last night, but a lot of people did not seem to get them. like the whole robot thing. so this is a 10 min free write about them

they have been called daft punk scence the 90's but they did not take up their iconic helmets until 2000.  before the helmets they wore masks, and face paint to hide  their identity, to make their work about the music not them.

the first helmets had full led wiring and could toggle through faces, and could have words displayed on the screen for their second album Discovery


the next album Human after all, had robots in leather jackets with plain black screens. and no leds in the "ear parts




 in daft punks cameo in tron they both had silver helmets with white led strips, with silver polarized screens
for RAM the helmets look like the HAA helmets but with different outfits, black, gold or silver sport coats with black pants and sparkly heeled boots,


for their Grammy performance they wore white leather, mimicking the black leather of HAA outfits. the helmets where also plain white but with the screens polarized gold and silver respectively.
