A few weeks back Daft Punk unveiled the first new song to the world in years in the form of a 15 second ad ran during Saturday Night Live.

Aside from being one of the most unique ideas for creating a song, it is incredible. It has a extra chill vibe pumpd full of funky Daft Punk energy. I really can’t stop replaying this track.

Daft Punk let loose new song clip on SNL

Posted in Chill, Video by nick | Tags: , , , , , , ,

Daft Punk conitinue to cement the information of the French duo releasing a new 4th album. A 15 second ad aired during SNL on Saturday Night, featuring the first clip off their new album. It packed quite the funky guitar riff, and had a very organic feel.. The quick clip showed the Daft Punk logo and the helmets cover it, the same helmet graphic that surfaced on their website last week. It was short, sweet, and now will have the world talking about it. Well played Daft Punk.

Apparently the clip was shown right at midnight making it March 3rd or numerically 3. 03, hinting at their popular 303 synth used in lots of their earlier music. Can anyone confirm this detail?

What are your thoughts on the first official Daft Punk original in years? Also below is the 10 hour version for those who can’t get enough Daft.

Or if it better suits you the 10 hour long looped version.

The Santa Barbara duo Candyland are off to an impressive year with the very successful release of the Bring the Rain EP, getting signed with YMCM, and now breaking 30k Facebook fans. To honor the occasion they recruited Brown & Gammon to flip their lead single “Bring the Rain”. Instead of the bass heavy glitch-hop or dubstep you might be expecting from the bass fiends Brown & Gammon, they let loose and groovy Nu-Disco heater. This remix lets you see the song in a completely different light really letting you focus on the vocals. They are asking that you like their facebook if you haven’t already to unlock the free download. What do you think of the change of pace from Brown and Gammon?
