Did Daft Punk's rise to fame completely disillusion their

I suppose their fanbase has changed rather than become disillusioned.

Definitively normie-core. Doesn't stop their music from being good, but it has declined. I'm not hopeful for their next album at this rate.

No band hates their fans more than Daft Punk does

Daft Punk's fans in a nutshell:

The worst part is they're just not "punk" anymore. In any sense of the word. Homework and the side project era had the true punk ethos of wanton sampling and DIY techno, noisey and imperfect. Alive 1997 and other bootlegs from that era perfectly demonstrate how awesome seat-of-your-pants French house was back then.

Then they started taking themselves seriously, which still led to awesome results from Discovery on through Alive 2007, mostly because their heads hadn't gone completely up their asses at that point (though Electroma was a scare).

But with everyone praising them for Alive 2007 and landing the Tron job to boot, they started believing they were gods, and ventured fully into their own anuses. So we get the Hans Zimmer with synths Tron score, the physical manifestation of pretentiousness that is RAM, and a bunch of over-hyped vocoder ft. credits.

Do you write for any music magazines or run a blog? I like your writing style, whether you were trying or not.

Pretty much dead on. Though I'm not sure if my opinion on this is muddled by the fact that RAM was lukewarm for me--it was a nice homage to disco but nothing more. Luckily there's plenty of French touch artists to be listened to but I don't see anyone making another Discovery again. I think those kinds of albums are a one-time deal

i enjoyed a good chunk of RAM but still agree

>normie-core
Always been

They were always normie core, literally everybody loved Daft Punk when I was a kid.

I don't understand them now though. They're just making generic pop singles for generic pop artists. With vocoders sometimes, as anon mentioned. It's not even Daft Punk anymore.

I still remember when Human After All was leaked here and nobody believed it was the real deal for a month until it actually released, because it was so repetitive and dry. But that felt more like DF than whatever the hell they are now.

This. If you think they were ever underground, it's because you're objectively a fucking pleb.

You honestly don't think the punk in their name is meant to refer to them being Punk, do you?

Please tell me you're joking or at least 15 so I don't feel bad for laughing at you for actually thinking they produced dirty house.
