Daft Punk's Random Access Memories

okay if someone told me this album sounded like The Faint I would be more interested in hearing it

Fuck the Panda Bear track is a fucking jam

Need to listen to it a lot more, but I have to say that I was quite exhausted by the end.

right now someone is mixing fragments of time with a christine mcvie vocal imo

Baffled that NOT ONE of the lucky few reviewers addressed the melancholy, near serenity of this. Not one!

are there any legal streams atm?

Into Motherboard. I'm having a hard time figuring out which will be the next single.

todd edwards should be a permanent member of this band

I for one, after just one listen, can already conclude that these "exclusive one time listening sessions" are a piece of shite that needs to be eradicated from music journalism. Noone even got fucking CLOSE to describing this album.

I hear iTunes is live streaming, at least in the UK, right now.

yes canada itunes too

US is now too https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/daft-punk/id5468295

not seeing it in the u.s. ):

nvm got it!

Oh you lucky people - I am at work, can't stream til I get home

how's the extended edit of get luck

y?

Doin' it Right rules

more guitar grace xxp

Wish Lou1s J4gg3r was here to tell us his first impression all of a sudden ;_;

This is remarkably coherent for an album with such a diverse cast. Like, I was starting to wonder what the Julian Casablancas track would sound like, then looked and realised I'd heard it 10mins before. No individual guest overshadows the track at all.

I'm sure it'd be a challenging contrarian view xp

Matt DC otm, that happened to me as well. I really understand Chilly Gonzalez's remarks now about how they asked him to create a key progression or bridge, it's all very connected.

Panda Bear is kind of harshing my buzz here, his phrasing is all wrong.

Am I the only who kinda forgot about the performers per se?

do we know who drums on this?

Game of Love makin' me ;_;

Wow that final track is quite the intergalactic victory lap.

Was kind of expecting this to be an enjoyable mess but it's much better than that.

I mean it's no Human After All, but...

Yeah we need some info on session drummer - anybody?

the big ass prog drums on the moroder track are like my favorite thing in the world right now

The only track that disapointed me is Contact. Hopefully it will grow.

I feel like this album is gonna be remixed and sampled up the wazoo for the next year or so.

I love the way Giorgio pronounces synthesiser!

Beyond sounds a lot like Michael McDonald's "I Keep Forgettin".

can't really remember an album with so much to take in on first listen.

do we know who drums on this?

they've said it's john "jr" robinson (dad-looking white dude who played on all of 'Off the Wall') and omar hakim (sting, tons of jazz fusion & pop records/tours).

I heard Tony McCarroll

the drums on giorgio are killing it

omar hakim, fuck yeah

"instant crush" is gorgeous

man

I heard Tony McCarroll

i don't think so?

i remember going to see a john robinson clinic when i was a kid, he talked about how quincy etc would record him warming up, just fucking around and busting chops, and then punch in little bits of that for the crazy drum intros on 'baby be mine' etc.

the ... sleepiness? ... of pharrell's vocal on get lucky makes more sense now

is touch trolling

HOLY SHIT @ THE END OF GIORGIO

"touch" is otherworldly disco prog

i am dying
