Daft Punk: A Trip Inside the Pyramid

By Dina Santorelli

Daft Punk are one of the most enigmantic and mysterious groups to exist in the modern age. Erupting out of the French house movement in the nineties, they continue to craft hugely popular, electronic masterpieces behind an inscrutable persona.

A Trip Inside The Pyramid is the first book to pull together the complete story of Grammy award-winning Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo, the French musicians behind the legendary masks. Their earliest influences — as diverse as Barry Manilow, Giorgio Moroder, Kraftwerk and Andy Warhol — and their rise to international stardom are depicted with stunning, full-colour photography.

Rare photos, insights and revelations adorn the history of electronic music, a culture now permeated with Daft Punk's enduring legacy.
