The videos on the Palm Directors Label DVDs underline this quite heavily.

Also, jcknbl: please enjoy this piping hot WTF-Pie I've baked for you, and while we savour it please tell me all about your confusing picture.
jcknbl:
I thought it was pretty obvious I wasn't talking about causality in that post. I'm talking about how the cultural and musical inovations of Kraftwerk are a very significant part of DP's act. This means two things
First, you can't get out of voting for Kraftwerk by just saying that you like Daft Punk's style or aesthetic better because Daft Punk GOT their aesthetic and style FROM Kraftwerk. So not only are those not unique reasons to vote for Daft Punk, they're actually good reasons to vote for Kraftwerk; Kraftwerk gets credit for some of Daft Punk's coolness.
Second, this fact pretty clearly demonstrates how much more important and influential Kraftwerk is. That Daft Punk was so influenced by Kraftwerk just underscores this point. Like if I you were to compose this really sweet song- and I came a long and made a few production changes and after I was done the song was better you wouldn't then say that I'm the better musician.
Hell, Daft Punk takes a lot of their stuff from samples anyway. http://www.stylehiphop.com/funk-type-house_fr.html
The originality battle isn't even close.
Edit: The picture. Its a man. Made out of straw,

Only when you come to terms with the fact that everyone participating is working off their own definition of "best band" can you approach buddha-nature.

So you guys get Big Love all the way out there in Great Britain, huh?
