Daft Punk is a multi Grammy Award-winning electronic music duo consisting of
French musicians
Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo (born February 8, 1974) and
Thomas Bangalter (born January 3, 1975). The duo is considered one of the most successful
electronic music collaborations of all time, both in album sales and in critical acclaim. After Daft Punk reached significant popularity in the late
1990s house movement in
France, other artists such as
Air,
Cassius, and
Dimitri from Paris began to receive a similar amount of attention.
