(Does anyone have the fear from seeing 'Make Love' among the song titles?)

01. Human After Allalmost orchestral intro with strings and fantastic attenuated major piano chords building up into a thunderous crescendo after a minute or two, chaotic 'noise' and fx threaten in the background briefly but the next four minutes are built around a kickdrum only every OTHER beat and only three per bar with a two-chord balearic pad in tandem, tinkling bells, different loops of crowd cheers, children laughing and Bangalter crooning 'we can start again, we're human after all' overdubbed enough so that it sounds like a choir of twenty but curiously unrobotic - HOW DID THEY DO IT? it sounds predictably sunny and almost harks back to 'Fresh' from the first album. an organ outro seals the deal and creates a bridge into...
02. The Prime Time Of Your LifePrince's 'Dance Music Sex Romance' turbo-charged for c21, making for one great wah-wah funk dance track around the same tempo as 'Da Funk' but not as heavy - and no 303s...hopefully no-one will notice it's similiarity to lenny Kravitz's 'Super Soul Fighter' in addition at points either. halfway through a cheery vocoder starts bleating "P-R-I-M-E-T-I-M-E!" while jumbo jets swoosh overhead. possibly the pinnacle of people fun.

'Robot Rock' is the first single, to be followed by 'Technoid', which my friend claims is one of the best, most catchy, things they've ever done.

Not like I was expecting anything a hell of a lot different than that general idea, but YAY!

Downloading now. Sounds interesting

Well that was enjoyable. Definitely felt like an easier listen and less like I was being pummelled into submission in certain places. That said, in others I missed the pummelling, particularly on the first two tracks which I always liked just fine. I did enjoy the artistic liberty you took with Prime Time (I think) though, that was fun

Thanks! The creative liberty I think I was referring to was the edit to only a single "Technologic" before the first drop instead of four. The fact that didn't actually stick out as noticeable is a victory I think hah.
Re: PTOYL, it was the hardest song to edit, because it's the only one on the album I actually enjoy its full length for the most part. However, I forced myself to get it below 4 mins just to see, and was able to slice out the 2nd half of the intro successfully. Flows better now I think, but I did cut out the part with the most personality. I still think most people casually listening wouldn't even notice. It's basically an album of radio edits.

Thanks for the work - this is kind of reminiscent of the Rex the Dog compilation.
