Daft Punk fume une pipe


Forget the girls and the sighing for a few minutes. Think about Georges Brassens. Then think of Daft Punk. Now, try 'n mix the two. You think that's impossible? Ofcourse not. La Pompe Moderne, a group of humourists from France, pay tribute to both Brassens (they used to call themselves the Brassens, but for reasons that are beyond my understanding of French, they changed it, see the explanation on their MySpace) and the helmet-wearing filterdisco-gods. They don't use computers, drummachines or effects, just upright bass, clarinets and sax. What you get is Georges Brassens doing DP's Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger, while smoking a pipe. It's great, it's funny, it's a nice interlude, that's what it is.

  1. Too bad they had to change their name (probably because of Brassens family who already refused a sample to rapper from NTM Joey Starr) this is hilarious

  2. George eats a delicious squid that afterwards makes him undergo a visionary experience, in which he's presented to a world wherein his name is being misused as a tool for gain and pattriotism. George takes this as a sign and henceforth changes his name.
