During Electric Daisy Carnival week in Las Vegas, the superstar DJ known as Tiësto had the opportunity to sit down with Giorgio Moroder who had recently collaborated with Daft Punk. Tiësto was honored that Giorgio had stayed the entire 3 hours during his set as he was one of Tiësto’s “youth heroes.”
Tiësto admits that he really isn’t feeling the new Daft Punk album that much as he says “It’s cool to like Daft Punk. Even if you’re not into the song, as soon as you hear [“Get Lucky’”], you see all the cool people go, ‘Oh yeah, this is cool, that’s my song,’ and they don’t really even enjoy it.” He then goes on to say “I’m destroying them now, Sorry Daft Punk.” Tiesto goes a bit further by saying “because it’s Daft Punk and they’re supposed to be cool and they had the amazing pyramid at Coachella a couple of years ago and the helmets — they’re fucking cool. But the music doesn’t deliver on the hype so much.”
Tiesto continues to say that since there was so much hype around “Get Lucky” that people perceive it as being a cool song, but when you actually ask them if they like the song, most people will say “eh.” He for one isn’t buying the hype.
