Techno-pioneers Daft Punk have announced their first-ever high-def release 'Electroma,' which will hit Blu-ray this summer.
Described in press materials as the "odyssey of two robots (played by Peter Hurteau and Michael Reich) who journey across a mythic American landscape of haunting, surreal beauty on a quest to become human," Vice Records will release the full-length feature film on Blu-ray July 22, day-and-date with the standard DVD version.
