Peter Bjorn and John Talk Daft Punk Influencing “Young Folks” on “Song Exploder”: Listen | Pitchfork

By Evan Minsker

September 22, 2016

To mark the 10-year anniversary of their breakout hit “Young Folks,” Peter Bjorn and John discussed the song on “Song Exploder”—the podcast where Hrishikesh Hirway asks artists to dissect an individual track. While discussing the song’s themes and individual elements, they revealed that Daft Punk’s “Robot Rock” was one of the primary influences on the opening moments of “Young Folks.” “We wanted to do that [song’s opening drum fill] in a nerdy, uncool way,” they said. Listen to the entire episode below.

Earlier this year, Peter Bjorn and John released their new album Breakin’ Point. Tonight, Daft Punk and the Weeknd released their new song “Starboy.”
