We’re Up All Night to Catch Pokémon with This Daft Punk Mashup

Pokémon GO has been such an momentous phenomenon that it can feel like life as we know it is slowly being sucked into its nascent universe. Before, we just had regular vaporwave, but now we've got Pokéwave. Similarly, for some, a standard night out clubbing simply doesn't cut it anymore—this past Saturday night, a London club hosted the first-ever Pokémon GO rave.

Now, with the circulation of a pretty ingenious "Harder Better Faster Stronger" mash up on Twitter, a canny fan has pulled the influential French duo Daft Punk into the game's fold. Watch below as a cute ensemble of Pidgeys get repurposed as props in an augmented reality-based animation for the technology-themed song.
