Fri, 02 Nov 2007  /  jeremy_a Check out Daft Punk's new video, shot live in Brooklyn by 250 camera-wielding fans.
The video is directed by Olivier Gondry, brother of Michel Gondry, who has directed a Daft Punk video or two himself in his time. The cut is from Daft Punk's new album Alive 2007 due in December, but don't expect any more where this came from. "That's the way we want to leave it right now," Bangalter told Billboard magazine.
"We were inspired by the Beastie Boys' 'Awesome, I Fuckin' Shot That!' and tried to do that in a four-minute video," says Bangalter. What that means is that the video was shot by the fans, in this case 250 audience members who brought along home DV cameras to Daft Punk's show in Brooklyn in August. And as ever, the result is eye-popping.
