Daft Punk is the defining musicians of techno music.  Their fast beats, robotic melodic vocals, and their risk taking in music innovation has lead to an interesting sound that cyber punk and steampunk fans can embrace

In the song Steam Machine, it starts out with the musician saying Steam in a voice that makes you think of steam leaking out a steam engine, or coming out the tea kettle, minus the high pitched whine.  Than it breaks into a techno beat and good rhythm.  If you haven't discovered Daft Punk you should definitely give them a listen.
