Leigh mentions that the
humanity of the so-called Bristol sound is what defines it, along with its socially aware attitude. Daft Punk (think
Human After All) is all about humanity! Just like Kraftwerk, Daft Punk's songs are inexplicably in pieced-together English, and, like Kraftwerk, Daft Punk sends a vaguely political message. In the end, though, Daft Punk is all about having fun: Human After All is probably less about racism than a riff on their hugely famous
robot costumes. I mean, they're probably more related to Richard Wagner and his idea of the gesamtkunstwerk, or total work of art: they dig
the total work of awesome, performing as they do in a totally sick triangle.
