Imagine being coachella and sitting on HD Footage of daft punks entire set and not releasing it

I knew Kanye was gonna be in it but if you understand how legendary and important that performance was and still is youd want the same

40k people crammed into a tent built for 10k people, no one knowing what was gonna happen until the curtains dropped. their stage design with all the LED s*** hadn't been done yet in 06 so it kinda showed how maximalist and over the top the theatrics of a live performance could be. on top of that the actual set is insane a lot of people expected it to be mid because they had just dropped a pretty trash album but they remixed all their classics live and read the crowd perfectly, if you're into edm at all the drops just kept getting better throughout the set s*** is amazing

after that it kinda started a race for every other DJ to catch up to that energy with their lights and live shows. also exposed a lot of people to the genre, basically starting the mainstream rise of electronic music. it's on wax that a lot of the biggest DJs and producers today were put onto electronic because of that performance, they even got a whole section on it in that coachella doc, i didn't watch it all but they had a-trak and some others talking about how influential that set was to em. skrillex had some tour that a lot of EDM heads consider classic where the idea was pretty much ripped off of this set
