Former Kraftwerk Member Wolfgang Flür Tricked Into Fake Daft Punk Collaboration by Imposter
Kraftwerk's Wolfgang Flür has been promising a collaboration with Daft Punk's Thomas Bangalter for a few years now, but all is not what it seems.
The world of electronic music is currently coming to terms with news of an international ruse which has seen former Kraftwerk member Wolfgang Flür reportedly tricked into a false collaboration with Daft Punk ’s Thomas Bangalter. According to research conducted by Perez, Flür had spoken about being contacted by Bangalter via Facebook back in 2023, admitting he was unaware of the Daft Punk member or his influence at the time. Though initially suspicious of the news, given the reclusive social media presence of Daft Punk and its members, Perez further noted that something seemed amiss when Thomas Vangarde was credited on the record instead of Bangalter.
