Thomas Bangalter Reveals Terrifying Reason Behind Daft Punk Split

Thomas Bangalter, one half of the now-disbanded electronic duo Daft Punk, has revealed that part of the reason for the split was the advance of technology. Bangalter said that the pair had always been "on the side of humanity and not on the side of technology" and that he was "terrified of the nature of the relationship between the machines and ourselves". He added that his new orchestral album, Mythologies, was inspired by his late mother and aunt, both dancers, and his uncle, a choreographer.
