Daft Punk’s Thomas Bangalter has announced a new solo album called Mythologies. The LP is an orchestral work, and it’s slated for release on April 7 via Erato/Warner. Choreographer Angelin Preljocaj commissioned Mythologies for the ballet of the same name that premiered last year.
According to a press release, Bangalter’s 90-minute score “does not draw on the resources of electronic music but instead involves the large-scale traditional force of a symphony and, as such, it embraces the history of orchestral ballet music in a gesture that is both personal and collaborative.”
Daft Punk announced their breakup in 2021. The following year, they released a digital reissue of their debut album, Homework. Bangalter previously contributed to the soundtrack for Gaspar Noé’s Climax.
