Daft Punk's trophy case is a testament to their genre-defying reach. They won six Grammys, including the big four categories of Album of the Year and Record of the Year. Random Access Memories alone swept five Grammys in 2014. Their live album Alive 2007 also took home a Grammy, a rare feat for a live recording. Beyond the Grammys, they earned a BRIT Award, multiple NRJ Music Awards, and an MTV Video Music Award. Their influence is reflected in rankings: Rolling Stone placed them at #12 on the Greatest Musical Duos list, and Discovery topped Mixmag's Greatest Dance Albums of All Time.
