Metronomy did this california yacht rock vibe way better

eagh, you owe everyone itt a big apology

all of the carping about Panda Bear I expected something unlistenable. it's fine!

lex love u but yr undergarments are realllllly tightly bunched

"within" is lovely

i'm a mild at best fan of daft punk but i did get a bit off a "OMG I LOVE BACON AND CORNDOGS" type frontin' on twitter w/r/t everyone being so "excited" about Get Lucky, i feel like it was half ppl that new One More Time and that youtube the people's hands with magic marker doing the better faster stronger song

Beyond is this record's Voyager.

omg GENE CERNAN sample on 'Contact' spacenerd squeeeeeeeeeeeeee

okay this julian casablancas track sounds kinda like... ke$ha or something. in the chorus.

casablancas track kinda sucks imo.

I'm listening to it for the first time now. Giorgio by Moroder is 10/10.

LOSE YOURSELF TO DANCE

COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON COME ON

otm

Overstuffed and undercooked, this thing. So sad.

i love them for inflicting this record on ordinary people with lives

that's my reaction to "touch"

i love them for inflicting this record on ordinary people with lives

lol otm those daft punk youtube girls are currently trying to figure out why they are listening to some 70s lite rock prog album

these songs will be easily digestible when mashed together alive 2007 style tho

^^ In an ideal world, this always is the perfect, one and true answer

my overriding feeling listening to "Give Life Back To Music" is that I'd rather just listen to Chic

okay serious lol time @ "The Game Of Love"

I don't care all that much about this so far but I am enjoying it more than Discovery

Fragments of Time is exceptional.

in a good way, I mean.

I really like Instant Crush but there are a couple of songs on the new Strokes album that would fit better on this album.

Lose Yourself to Dance is huge, maybe my favourite song so far.

i lost track of what's what but the instrumental arpeggio thing, possibly motherboard, is amazing.

"Fragments of Time" is my favorite -- not a bad Doobie Bros approximation.

Yeah, they turned him into Michael McDonald! Didn't know Todd had that in him.

contact is awesome, with that feedback that sounds like an engine, constantly in crescendo.

bit weird that contact is apparently about 10 years old and they made it with falcon around the same time as "so much love to give"

Love it when Touch goes all Dr Buzzard's Original Savannah Band for a minute!

I think that I got Motherboard and Beyond confused, Motherboard is this record's Voyager. The arpeggio one.

Dr Buzzard with really really thick Love Boat strings over the top. Too much coconut.

you can smell the polyester

panda bear tune is pretty good, they actually hem him into a much more structured place than he's usually in.

overall this is feeling like a noble and ambitious slight miss to me. but i can imagine giving it a good few listens over the next couple of weeks.

This is OTM. For someone (Falcon) who hasn't laid anything into a groove for 10 years or so, this is beneath 'So much love to give' or 'Together'.

I did read just today he is working on new material though, a new EP/12". Which would be awesome.

Casablancas joint is my least fave after two listens. Panda Bear track kinda rules

"Within" interpolates a variant on the "Against All Odds" theme.

Panda Bear tune is a banger!

Only had one listen but Casablancas one actively annoyed me.

Not really feeling Contact.

no it isn't. that's not what "banger" means.

xp

I can't imagine a situation where I'd want to relisten to "Lose Yourself to Dance."

thought contact was self-sampling "rollin' and scratchin'" for a minute

probably not a full minute actually

yeahhhhh that was what i thought too!

it;s what kids on youtube nowadays call "shreds" tbh

Beyond is really lovely, very Sebastien Tellier. I kinda wish more people had given his last album a listen it was quite brilliant.

Contact reminds me of their remix of Franz Ferdinand's Take Me Out, but done right.

They should put out Fragments of Time as the next single, this sounds like the other big hit on the album. Surprisingly there doesn't seem to be many obvious singles on here.

i'm kinda meh you guys! I wanted to love it cuz I wanted something new and shiny to play but i'm afraid if I bought this on cd I would be skipping around like crazy. would probably just enjoy a cd with ten versions of get lucky.

guest star stuff usually kinda bums me out if I see a track-listing filled with other people. unless its a rap album. though track-listings that feature puffy or kanye bum me out. multiple other folks make records seem instantly dated. plus, ugh, panda bear. but this is why god invented i-devices. just rip the good stuff to your i-pak and put on your e-buds.
