All told, the catalogue includes 102 tracks comprising an artistic vision as distinct as the duo's silhouettes on that iconic Coachella billboard. Some are all-time classics some, not so much. We included all five studio albums (including the Tron soundtrack), as well as numerous remixes, B-sides, and songs they've produced for artists like Kanye West-though if there were multiple versions of the same track, we only chose the best one. Which is to say, here at THUMP, we've decided to rank every Daft Punk song because arbitrary lists are the only things that make sense anymore. So as the world crumbles around us, we build fortresses in our mind. In an era where chaos reigns, Daft Punk provide stability. People play their hits at weddings, bar mitzvahs, and graduation parties because they want to remember those moments forever, and the songs feel timeless enough to last that long. The same themes occur over and over Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo are drawn like moths to the flames of romance, youth, and parties-emotional and physical settings where time melts away. Daft Punk carve out the fragmentary hearts of old songs, preserving their essence in digital amber.
