Get ready for a lot of shiny chrome and sequins. This is Daft Punk’s new single from their soon-to-be-released album, Random Access Memories. Get Lucky (Featuring Pharrell Williams and Nile Rodgers) is a blast from the space-crazed past. I feel like these guys should be jamming in the background at a space club somewhere in [...]

Daft Punk’s One More Time performed a capella

Zolton Contributor

By Zolton in Video on Friday 24 February 2012

Daft Punk done a capella? Why not. But where is the animated escapism to go with it.
