Daft Punk was famous for the robot masks that concealed the identities of the French musical duo. But behind the gimmick was a sound that revolutionized popular dance music in the early 2000s. Today marks the 25th anniversary of Daft Punk releasing Discovery, featuring hits like "One More Time" and "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger." Music writer Ben Cardew, author of the book, Daft Punk's Discovery: The Future Unfurled, reflects on the anniversary and listeners share their memories of listening to Discovery.
