"Daft Punk Is Playing at My House" is the one on LCD Soundsystem's 2005 self-titled album with a grin that never quits. James Murphy wrote it, sings it and plays drums and synthesizer on it, with Tim Goldsworthy on drum machine and synth, Tyler Pope on bass and Eric Broucek on percussion; DFA produced it and mixed it with Andy Wallace. It's dance-punk that clanks and hollers like a garage band that wandered into a disco and refused to leave.
Released as a single that year, it topped the UK Dance Chart, reached number 29 on the UK Singles Chart and earned a nomination for Best Dance Recording at the 2006 Grammys. The video tipped its hat, tongue firmly in cheek, to Spike Jonze's "Da Funk" and Michel Gondry's "Around the World" clips for Daft Punk, and the song has since popped up in FIFA 06, Burnout: Revenge and the film Project X.
