How Daft Punk Sold Techno to the World: A Map for Crypto


I wrote a piece published on my Mirror blog which you can find here about the legacy of Daft Punk and what the crypto world can learn from them.

Their use of anonymity gave the feeling of a collective authority to remix and match the aesthetics and literal sounds of previous generations’ music. They did not try to transcend the past but instead recognize the immanence inherent to music production, standing on the shoulders of giants while riding the zeitgeist of the growing trends that have led to the digitized world we live in today. You can see this clearly in the way they sampled songs like More Spell on You by Eddie Johns for their leading song for Discovery, One More Time. Daft Punk showed us how to use representation in a much more generative way than crypto has largely been doing the past decade. So how do we be the Daft Punks of crypto?
