“Duran Duran -- I remember the first night I was truly cognizant of the individual band members. It was the first Friday of December, 1984. My BFF Pam and I suffered the same affliction of not having cable TV and had to get our music video fix via NBC's "Friday Night Videos." I'd seen Duran Duran videos and knew their songs, but just wasn't all that into them. The video for "Do They Know It's Christmas" came on and I was like, "Pam, who is this hot guy with the long blonde hair???" "Oh, that's Simon LeBon. He's the lead singer of Duran Duran." Hmmm... "I guess that guy with the red and black shirt that says 'Duran Duran' on it is in the band, too, huh?" "Yeah, that's John Taylor. Like EVERYONE thinks he's hot." (And I remember thinking, "He's okay, I guess," LOL!) "Hey, Pam! Who's this guy back here? Shoot, I keep missing him! They just barely show him, with the amazing make-up and the gorgeous eyes???" "Oh, that's Nick Rhodes. He's in Duran Duran, too. I think he plays keyboards." Hmmm... The next video up? "Wild Boys" by Duran Duran! Just a few moments earlier, during "DTKIC," I had picked out these three men who would fill my dreams, diaries, and Duran-induced imagination for years and years to come, three talented musicians whose band's music would, from that night forward change my life forever and whose music would literally save my life more than once.”
Though nothing's been officially confirmed, details surrounding Daft Punk's rumored new album (their first since 2005's Human After All if you don't count 2010's Tron: Legacy soundtrack) are beginning to slowly trickle out. At least I think that's what happening. Actually no one really knows what's going on with Daft Punk's new album (if there even is one), although Italian disco "legend" (you'll have to Google him) Giorgio Moroder seems to think he'll be on it.
Urb.com(via Consequence Of Sound) reports that Moroder unveiled the news during a recent interview at the International Music Summit in Ibiza. According to their report:
"The robots asked the Munich Machine to go into a vocal booth and speak about his life. In the studio were multiple microphones of various vintages from the '60s to today. When Moroder asked the engineer why they had so many mics, he replied that the mic they would use would depend on what decade of his life he was speaking about. When Moroder asked if anyone would know the difference, the engineer replied "They will know.'"
Whoa. Certainly sounds very Daft Punk-esque. But then again, this guy looks like a third-rate Miami Vice henchman, so I'm not entirely sure he can be trusted. Then again, Nile Rodgers (who we definitely know is working with Daft Punk on something… see above) was reportedly in the audience during the Moroder Q&A and didn't immediately stand up and shout, "Lies! Lies!" So who knows, he might be telling the truth. He might be a robot himself. We'll just have to wait and find out.
