Have you heard about these French guys who wear helmets on their heads and make groovy tunes, these Daft Punk guys? Everyone’s talking about them and their new album these days. We kinda like it. Lots of people do. Hell, Pitchform basically built an online monument to Daft Punk in honor of it. But you know who doesn’t? Diplo, that’s who!
Here’s the text of a multi-tweet Twitter review the DJ/producer posted last night…
This daft punk album would probably be really good to take drugs and listen to on a rainy bridge across the gulf of mexico but I dnt know…Reminds me of when I was 19 really high and listened to kid a over and over again but I don’t know if yung kids will get It…These guys are way smarter then me…I’m definitely missing something…Gonna listen to this panda bear song again 10 times brb…The song with todd edwards makes me feel like I’m alone at waffle house and the jukebox is broken and only micheal mcdonald plays out of it…When giorgio moroder made songs he wasn’t thinking about it intellectually he was jus doin it…I think the song with julian casablancas would be better with marky mark walbergs character from boogie nights doing the vocals…This album makes me not like LA now I jus wanna hang out with mexican kids and tag ur car…Motherboard sounds like a coked up austrian guy working on chariots of fire soundtrack then got fired but I fuck with it…The song with paul williams needs more sidechain and less ragtime barbershop quartet…This is what daft punk album sound like…
Included in that final tweet was a link to this video…
Yeah, so I think it’s safe to say that Diplo — a purveyor of fine booty-shaking musical products — doesn’t like the new Daft Punk record. Just a hunch.
