Daft Punk's Random Access Memories

idk what good could possibly come from a live performance of any of their work tbh, unless they want to do a rollin and scratchin vinyl dj set

So MTV fought a Colbert appearance over this? If they weren't performing in either I don't see what the fuzz was all about. It was more of a promo for their new video that looks almost exactly as the other but with United Colors of Benetton people being all clappy happy.

alive 2006/7 was a canned performance

i miss the talking dog.

I'm pretty much done with 'em at this point.

RIP Charles

alive 2006/7 was a canned performance

it was a rehearsed performance

http://www.factmag.com/2013/08/27/daft-punks-thomas-bangalter-curates-playlist/

that playlist is even more half-assed (less assed?) than the VMA performance

also, youd think he had better/less overplayed chic songs than good times or hes the greatest dancer... dissapointed too (though not that surprised) with the lack of dance music on there.

1) it's a promo spotify playlist for RAM
1a) much of whose audience won't know the contributors' work
2) it does include Why which is Chic's, and possibly the universe's secret best song ever
3) if your choice is between giving someone a chance to listen to He's The Greatest Dancer, and appearing cool by suggesting something obscure, the former is never a wrong decision; the latter often could be

possibly the universe's secret best song ever

otm

I haven't opened the link but based on this comments I'm sure the playlist is very similar to one I saw them submit before somewhere that's pretty much two or three songs from each collaborator on RAM (strokes, panda bear, chilly, moroder, chic/nile contributions, paul williams, nerd)

I just figured out the reason "Lose Yourself to Dance" is awesome is cause it sounds like DJ Quik

I've finally come around to Lose Yourself to Dance; it's kinda perfect late-summer music.

I do wish T Swift had kissed DP's helmets

I'd love "Lose Yourself to Dance" if Pharrell were drawn and quartered and his death throes were recorded over his original vocal.

the most un-ecsstatic, un-lose yourself to dance vocal, like, ever

it's "Let's Get Down" without charm or vocals.

Well anything next to LGD sounds kinda sad.

Tough metrics

I don't care, I'm #teampharrell

happy rosh hashanah y'all

err... what's the resemblance between "Lose yourself to dance" and "Let's get down" ??

dj quik would give lose yourself a lot more handclaps...

The handclaps (and tempo) are what made me think of DJ Quik in the first place! If anything, the mid-tempo 4x4 stomp-clap funk groove places it in the 90s, rather than the Nile Rodgers red herring would indicate. Or if in the 70s, at the wrong end of the 70s -- the groove is more "Superstition" than "Le Freak".

their best-selling album yet:

US: 766,000
World: 2,596,000

Not in the us at least. Discovery has sold 800k+. Will be soon tho.

That Tellier video! Umm...

Cool video but the second robot should be on drums again as there doesn't seem to be any keyboard in the actual song.

part of me feels like they're martha walsh-ing nathan east and j.r. robinson

I dunno what kind of bizzaro world ya'll live in where "Lose Yourself to Dance" isn't far and away the MVP of this record...

Still, if Tony Thompson were here to play on it, it would be that much better, and I think the vocals are alright but hell Robert Palmer could have spanked this into oblivion #RIPThePowerStation
