This is disappointing
This is disappointing
mostly because the songs are just radio hits and not timeless house tracks like their earlier stuff
It’s a great album. It’s just not what you expected. Give it a chance
the production is fucking incredible though, even if some of the songs are underwhelming.
The production is great, true, but at least three quarters of the album are bland as fuck. Probably Daft Punk's worst album.
Whatever, I love the funk disco homage they went for. It's my favorite DP album that isn't Alive 2007.
best daft punk album easily. let me guess, you enjoyed discovery outside of 3 tracks?
>Removes everything except Give Life Back to Music, Giorgio, Instant Crush, and Touch
Ahhh, perfect
I enjoyed every song on Discovery. Homework is cool too for the most part
It’s not just the production, it’s the groove too. Great
It WAS disappointing when it came out. Now that the hype died years ago and you can judge it without your expectations clouding it, it's quite good.
Touch is fucking based
It's probably on par with Discovery for me.
Alive 2007 is better than both though
This album will age like fine wine, there is alot to learn from it, starting from the profuction that everyone loves
>tfw no alive 2017 integrating ram into their set to surpass alive 2007
This kills the discoveryfag
>removes Instant Touch
How could you say something so horrifically stupid
i'm honestly not sure why Discovery is so beloved, Human After All was way better imo
You are wrong and now you don't get to watch Phantom of the Paradise.
based illiterate user
I Feel It Coming is the best thing they ever did
Exactly my thougts, was listening to A07 a couple days ago while traveling, and imagining how RAM could fit in it. Giorgio, touched and contact could be absolutely amazing, but touch is kinda off the mood. Actually all of RAM except contact (wich is and old track) is a diferent set, but would kill for a new Alive
>After a long hiatus, Daft Punk returned with Random Access Memories (Daft Life, 2013), a collection of incredibly trivial melodies and beats, the ultimate late-night lounge muzak for a drunk melancholic audience, virtually the antithesis of everything they had done before in the field of electronic dance music. The album is a tribute of sorts to the 1970s, and it includes some of the commercial heroes of that decade (we even get a Giorgio Moroder lecture in the middle of the jazzy and neoclassical jam Giorgio By Moroder), but it is all sterilized and glacially un-emotional. The lightweight disco-era funk of Give Life Back To Music, Get Lucky and Lose Yourself To Dance (that imitate the likes of Chic, which were not exactly Beethoven) betray a colossal dearth of imagination. We don't even get good musicianship, let alone good ideas. There is about one minute in Touch of charleston-like beat with a jovial trumpet: that's as much fun as one gets. These are not laid-back ballads: these are lifeless songs drenched in nostalgia. In the 1970s it was hard to imagine anything more devoid of meaning that a ballad by Hall & Oates or Steely Dan: give it a nostalgic, extremely slow, interpretation and, voila, even the worst of the worst can get worse. The robotic vocals are generally an even worse affront, but Julian Casablancas of the Strokes manages to make them sound human in Instant Crush. Shame on Panda Bear for lending his voice to yet another robotic song, Doin' It Right. A better album would have consisted of the prog-rock instrumentals Motherboard and Contact, which are instead left half-baked.
