Matsumoto/Daft Punk Videos Online

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the something-worth-checking-out dept.

mvw noted that Toonami is serving up the four videos directed by Star Blazers creator Leiji Matsumoto for the first four tracks on Daft Punk album Discovery. The album is an absolute masterpiece and one of my favorite CDs. The videos are impressive too, telling a continuing story through each of the four songs with that distinctive style. Anyway, I was just pleased to see them online since I only got to see them once when Toonami aired them. and figured others would enjoy this.

    I haven't heard anything inspirational from Daft Punk since one of them went off and did 'music sounds better with you'. Strange that a vital, interesting band that produced 'revolution 909' and the excellent 'around the world' then ended up producing a parody of a cheesy hands-in-the-air house track, only to then recreate themselves based on a parody of that one track!

    Amen, amen to that. The first album was really good in a fun and simple way. They totally went crap after that.

    And the video with the dog-man was classic. I remember getting a kick out of the fact the bus driver kicked him off the bus because of his boom box, but didn't give a fuck that he was a dog!

    Okay this whole article is pointless but I guess slashdot is a little slow 2nite. I thought CTaco was into The Who and stuff.

    Hmm, time to put on Homework.
