A strange combination of techno and New Wave music, the French duo Daft Punk caused an international dance sensation with their catchy hit "Around The World."
This fantastic French import showcases the fact that the duo's innovation carries over to the video realm from the musical one. D.A.F.T. features their first four famous videos -- "Da Funk," "Around The World," "Burnin," and "Revolution 900." In addition, the bonus material is abundant and includes behind-the-scenes footage, commentaries, production materials, and previously unreleased remixes from British Dj Armand Van Helden.|

D.A.F.T.: A Story About Dogs, Androids, Firemen, and Tomatoes features the Parisian electronica duo's videos, along with commentaries, storyboards, and behind-the-scenes footage for each of the clips, remixes, and a live show, "Rollin' & Scratchin' Live in LA." Spike Jonze's popular video for "Da Funk," Michel Gondry's "Around the World," Roman Coppola's "Revolution 909," Seb Janiak's "Burnin'," and the band's self-directed clip for "Fresh" reaffirm the band's musical and visual inventiveness, while the live show features a whopping eight multiple-angle views. The Masters at Work, Ian Pooley, Roger Sanchez, and Armand Van Helden remixes add another layer of depth to this feature-packed DVD, which sets the standard for electronic artists -- as well as musicians in general -- to present their work in a creative, interactive way. ~ Heather Phares
