Daft Punk released their debut album, Homework , on 20 January 1997. That February, the UK dance magazine Muzik published a Daft Punk cover feature and described Homework as “one of the most hyped debut albums in a long long time”. According to The Village Voice , the album revived house music and departed from the Eurodance formula. The critic Alex Rayner wrote that it combined established club styles and the “burgeoning eclecticism” of big beat . In 1997, Daft Punk embarked on an international concert tour, Daftendirektour , using their home equipment for the live stage. On 25 May, they headlined the Tribal Gathering festival at Luton Hoo , England, with Orbital and Kraftwerk .
