Homework
Homework is the debut studio album by the French electronic music duo Daft Punk, released on 20 January 1997 by Virgin Records and Soma Quality Recordings. The duo produced the tracks without plans to release an album. After working on projects that were intended to be separate singles over five months, they considered the material good enough for an album. - Wikipedia

Consequence of Sound
Rather than mechanic flourishes on the album art, they opted for simple satin.

BBC
The track is a perfect example of Daft Punk’s sound at its most accessible: a post-disco boogie bassline, a minimalist sprinkling of synthetic keyboard melody and a single, naggingly insistent hook.

Clash Magazine
‘Homework’ offered the smallest glint of alternative salvation; beams of hope refracting off two metallic heads, mirrored in visors, reproduced in LEDs.

Rolling and Scratching.

All Music
Daft Punk's full-length debut is a funk-house hailstorm, giving real form to a style of straight-ahead dance music not attempted since the early fusion days of on-the-one funk and dance-party disco.

Homework is of the very nature of the kind of music one would listen to when embarking on a night on the town.

The Student Playlist
Homework is a collection of extended house workouts and curious, intelligent interludes that makes sense as a soundtrack to good times or just a chill-out comedown album, a perfect mixture of ambiance and pure beat-driven hedonism that’s accessible to all.

On the Aside
Daft Punk’s ‘Homework’ shattered expectations.

Slant Magazine
The album is a savory mix of borderline-cheesy filtered loops and super-simple drum machine beats and bass lines.
