The date was 10 November 1992, and the rooftop of the Centre Pompidou had been transformed into a giant dancefloor for the night. The "Armistice" house music event had attracted all of Paris’ nightclubbers. Among the crowd were two young guys about to turn 18, Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo. This rave night was to change everything for the pair who would become Daft Punk. We take an exclusive look back at a legendary episode with its key figures.
