www.ultimate-guitar.com/news/general_music_news/daft_punk_call_it_quits.htmlAfter 28 years of activity, Daft Punk has called it a day. The group broke the news with an eight-minute clip titled "Epilogue." Asked if the group was over, longtime publicist Kathryn Frazier confirmed the news to Pitchfork without giving the reason behind the breakup. The video sees the French duo - Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo - walking in the desert, reaching a dramatic conclusion when one of the guys touches a button, leading to an explosion and the clip fading to black. The group was launched in Paris in 1993, releasing the debut album "Homework" in 1997, featuring staple Daft Punk hits "Around the World" and "Da Funk." You can check out the video in the embedded player below.

"Random Access" is a great way to go out. Wonderful sounding record and very listenable.

Ooof. It took me longer than it should have for me to get into them, I hate to admit. Sad that they're breaking up with such a small body of work, but then WHAT a body of work it was. Few artists can claim to be so influential in only a few albums.

Sheryl and I shop the mag mile when visiting our daughter, and so I have logged in many hours jamming to the music played in the women’s stores, Loft, Forever 21, etc. This music reminds me of it. Groovy, baby.

I'm imagining someone, (not you Marty!) hanging out in women's stores in the mall, visually grooving to the music. Hoping to meet chicks with the tunes as a conversation starter.
