Trance superstar Tiesto has slammed Daft Punk - saying that although they’re ‘fucking cool’, their music doesn’t live up to its hype.
Daft Punk have dominated the dance music scene this summer, topping the UK album chart (as well as loads of others across the globe) with their latest album ‘Random Access Memories’. But, one man who doesn’t appreciate their beats is Tiesto. He reckons their music is far too over-hyped - and that people only pretend to like it to look cool.
He told Huffington Post:
“I’m destroying them now. Sorry Daft Punk. [Random Access Memories] got so much attention because it’s so different and it’s an attitude album. It’s cool to like Daft Punk. Even if you’re not into the song, as soon as you hear 'Get Lucky', you see all the cool people go, ‘Oh yeah, this is cool, that’s my song,’ and they don’t really even enjoy it.”
His dig continued with him commenting on their older music too - he said:
“The Tron soundtrack wasn’t that great and this ('Random Access Memories') is not great, either. But because it’s Daft Punk and they’re supposed to be cool and they had the amazing pyramid at Coachella a couple of years ago and the helmets - they’re fucking cool. But the music doesn’t deliver on the hype so much.”
