“That the CD version is so close to exactly 123.45 makes me think this was intentional. And if it was? Well played, robots.”

The actual BPM of the track is 123.45. Not the commonly cited 123. The suspiciously round decimal suggests Daft Punk intentionally selected this tempo as a hidden joke that went unnoticed for 25 years. Only one of their sequencers (Logic Audio) supported four decimal places of precision. The choice was deliberate.
