Daft Punk may have announced their split exactly a year ago today, but the famed electronic music duo made a surprise re-appearance on the Internet on Tuesday and streamed footage from a 1997 concert on Twitch. However, if you missed the show, in which the two wore their iconic metal helmets, it looks like you won't be able to catch it after the fact; Pitchfork reported that the concert will only air once, and it is not currently available on-demand on Twitch.
According to Pitchfork, the stream featured footage of a concert Guy-Manuel de Homme-Christo and Thomas Bangalter, the two men behind Daft Punk, played at a Los Angeles nightclub near the release of the band's first Homework album. Daft Punk also announced the album's 25th anniversary vinyl reissue, and after the concert ended, Post that is also available again on streaming services.

While it's not clear if this is the beginning of more than Daft Punk, you may want to follow the group's accounts on Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook. (I'm personally looking forward to the return tour.)
