Download Now: The Third Twin aka Daft Punk?


So.... Supposedly, Daft Punk will be playing in 2011 under the mysterious name The Third Twin. This could all be a hoax, but maybe not, since The Third Twin is scheduled to play the Arenal Festival in Spain in August alongside heavy hitters like the Simple Minds, and the Cranberries... Excerpt from Arenal press release below. The Third Twin zip file below that. You decide.


"The Third Twin is a French electronic music duo which is getting very popular around the business in the recent months. The reason is simple: They are directly related to the famous Daft Punk. They are in the second edition of the festival which takes place from August 4-7 at the Playa El Arenal from Burriana, Castellón, Spain. The show up of this mysterious group opens the Arenal Sound line up 2011.

The stage name of The Third Twin emerged supposedly with the aim of publishing the issues proposed by Daft Punk to Disney's movie Tron: Legacy. The company initially considered the material too oriented to electronic sounds because of that they refused it. The company ordered a new batch of compositions more orchestral and traditional which finally took part of the soundtrack of the film which was recently released with great success.

Daft Punk could not sign with their original name, music themes nor use any clear reference to the film for legal reasons. That is the reason why the well-known French electronic tandem had to use allegedly that pseudonym.

The result was The Third Twin or TTT, a music project which contain the songs published that is part of that band sound rejected. It was compiled together in an album entitled Homemade where you can find those tracks such as "Evil Minds" "Technolers" or "The Time is Over." The Third Twin has their own profile on MySpace where they have an extensive music material and songs that made Homemade and reached a great amount of visits on YouTube.
