This got moved to Community?

crazy.

album is still good

 

[Ermac]

need a youtube link for dat remix stat

 

[Timo]

...that was pretty disappointing. God dangit.

 

[Insane Dead]

Really loving the remix

 

[CRS]

The Daft Punk remix is really mediocre. Some of the vocals sound really off like they were poorly chopped and actually a bit amateurish. Do appreciate the breakdowns though but that's about it.

 

[Yousefb]

Official Daft Punk remix to Get Lucky is available on their website and spotify

That's what I think as well. I love RAM and when I heard about DP doing Remixes I expected them to treat the songs like they treated the source material for their older songs and create something new with it. But this is hardly even a remix. It's an edit with some random and confusing vocal cuts... :/

edit: while this remix isn't exactly top notch, I expected something like that in the beginning from the official mix.

 

[MNC]

The remix is really, really bad. :/

Might as well post better remixes then! This Vanderway Edit was put out back when the official song wasn't even out yet, and it's still one of my favorites.

 

[Dreaver]

I agree the remix is not that interesting. I don't like the start and it feels there isn't really any progress. It feels like they quickly threw together a remix in 5 minutes for the fans who didn't like the RAM style.

It's not a bad song, and we might be a little over saturated with the millions of (awesome) Get Lucky remixes. What I do like about this remix is that it stays really true to the original.

 

[CRS]

I also feel like they were trying to cater to the fans that preferred Discovery more by adding that synth(?) at various portions of the track.

Whatever. I still love RAM and Game of Love is still one of the best tracks I've heard all year and the best track on the album.

Not sure how long it will last.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Sounds really rough.

Maybe it's unedited? Kinda like the first get lucky leaks.

 

[PBY]

Wow. Weird choices- for barely really doing anything new musically, they made it 10 minutes?

Not good.

 

[Shearie]

I like the remix...they don't have to be radically different to be good.

I really like how they end with the verse "...all ends with beginnings..." With the same instrumental loop at the start of the song.

 

[Addi]

Wasn't expecting much more than that when they said it would be an extended mix like artists would do in the start of the 80s. Would have liked more surprises though.

 

[Dave Meltzer]

lol that remix is so shit.

 

[Zeppu]

Ho shit! But Spotify isn't available in my country, so I'll have to wait. ):

[Symphonic]

It's not THAT bad, geez guys. A little disappointing but still a solid remix. There's a lot of new stuff here.

"solid" doesn't earn 10 minutes.

 

[CRS]

Calling it a "remix" is a stretch too. Re-work or even edit would be a more appropriate description.

Thanks!

I was expecting much worse from the reactions, but it's pretty alright, not special, but alright. Could cut down a bit on the length.

 

[Foshy]

...the suddenly chopped off vocals sound so bad and amateurish I can't believe this is an official remix. I like the flow, but technically, it's terrible.

 

[Arkanius]

I want a full album of remixes.
I'm so tired of Get Lucky already D:

 

[MThanded]

WTF is this in community?

I couldn't find the thread.

 

[NintendoRev]

So that's where this thread went. Well that's Silly.

Anyway, This is pretty terrible for an official remix. I though the official remixes were supposed to be for us silly people that loved Discovery, rather than an amateur sounding extend+chop jobs :/

 

[Dany]

The remix had moments but I wished it had a different sound. It was slightly disappointing and still not what I wanted out of DP.

 

[Majine]

Remix is awesome

 

[RoKKeR]

More robot singing = remix is awesome.

Haters be damned.

 

[MattDoza]

I want a full album of remixes.

Me too.

I'm so tired of Get Lucky already D:

Never!

 

[awilliams213]

I took a RAM break for Yeezy and J.Cole then the robots drop this remix single just before Jay's album what a summer for music one of the best in recent memory.

 

[Dany]

When is the ETA for the remix album?

I really hope they do a better job with the other songs.

 

[Addi]

When is the ETA for the remix album?

I really hope they do a better job with the other songs.

They haven't even confirmed that they are doing a remix album. They just said they would try to remix some of the songs and decide what to do later on. I guess they released this one now to keep Get Lucky's momentum for the summer.

 

[enzo_gt]

So there's nowhere I can listen to the remix that isn't Spotify?

Sucks for all of us outside of the US, I guess :/

 

[cntr]

I got around to listening to a 2002 mixtape by Together, and to my surprise, they play a version of Contact near the ending! Mind blown.

Horizon Remix by Henry Saiz

I haven't seen a remix at all for Horizon yet. I'd like to see more.

Horizon Remix by Henry Saiz

Sick. I just realized that certain parts of the song make me think of DKC's soundtrack.

Get Lucky Remix Video Promo

god DAAAAMN

Streaming Link

Fucking oozing coolness...

 

[Eidan]

Goddammit. Why isn't the streaming link working for me?

 

[jett]

That's a pretty lame and mindless remix.

 

[lupinko]

This album is so great, I've been listening to it nonstop while driving and at work.

I like Touch with Paul Williams (best Penguin/Great songwriter for Carpenters) along with Give Life Back to Music, The Game of Love and Giorgio by Moroder especially.

I thought Touch was just a Paul Williams song but remixed by Daft Punk, turns out Paul Williams wrote the song, so go figure.

 

[Splatt]

I love how TV stations got bored of waiting for the official video for Get Lucky so they just made their own.

Thomas is so tall. And Guy Man has put on some weight...again.

Nicolas Jaar and friends have remixed the whole album. Up on soundcloud

[BakedPigeon]

Ive been a fan of daft punks music forever it seems, and I am listening to this album for the first time right now. Pretty happy vibe so far, im three tracks deep.

 

[Ran rp]

Just listened to the Get Lucky remix on Music Unlimited. It was awful.

Heard the 'Get Lucky' remix on the radio this Monday, then went and heard the whole thing on Soundcloud. I enjoyed it.

 

[HigXx]

"Lose Yourself To Dance" is the next single, released next month

 

[RoKKeR]

Just stumbled across this awesome Doin' It Right remix...

Doin' It Right (Sim Gretina Remix)

I like the original better because of how restrained and smooth it is, but this is definitely fun, high quality and feels like something you'd see Daft Punk doing live.

Speaking of which, any tour buzz?
