[Majine]

Yeah, loving that song probably my favorite right now

Its simple melody and strong bass makes me think of Da Funk somehow.

 

[PBY]

That's a really silly thing to say. What's your argument?

Its not an argument? He's just making an observation.

 

[Gav]

For those waiting for now apparently the stream is up.

 

[gutterboy44]

What an utterly dull album so far. This is hot garbage so far. It is about as catchy as a straight fishing hook.

 

[Don'tBeWeird]

It's apparent they learned a lot from Tron. I can hear parts of it in Motherboard really clearly.

I was hoping they brought some of their Tron style of work over here. I'm sooo glad they have.

 

[Hieberrr]

What an utterly dull album so far. I too was invited to a listening party today and this is hot garbage so far. It is about as catchy as a straight fishing hook.

Eh, it's not for everybody.

 

[Douglas Quaid]

Its so beautiful ;_;

 

[iavi]

That's a really silly thing to say. What's your argument?

I'm 8 tracks deep, and aside from the Rodgers assisted tracks--get lucky and Lose Yourself to Dance. It's a far more layered, atmospheric, movement-ridden album than it is a dance album. None of that to say it's bad, at all, but that nothing has the immediate dance hit of HBFS or Technologic, so far. I wasn't really making an argument.

 

[Fjordson]

Can anyone post a direct link to the stream? Like this one for the Justin Timberlake album since it works in Safari on iPhone:

[Trickster]

Fragments of time is so.fucking.good

Oh god doing it right sounds so much better than that 1 minute leaked version

 

[drifter444]

Man the last track must be INSANE to listen to live at a Daft Punk concert!

13. CONTACT!

 

[Jarmel]

Fragments is fun.

 

[Don'tBeWeird]

Touch was really strange at first, but it came together beautifully at the end. Great song.

 

[Wynnebeck]

Giorgio by Moroder. HOLY SHIT THIS OUTRO. THIS SONG MAN.

 

[Jibbed]

Man the last track must be INSANE to listen to live at a Daft Punk concert.

13. CONTACT!

I can feel it already.

 

[fierrotlepou]

I agree that this isn't a dance album, no hard hitting tracks that just make you want to get on your feet and dance. Even the friggin' Tron soundtrack had songs like that. Oh well, only 10 tracks in.

 

[Majine]

I'm having a deja vu moment with Contact. But from where?

 

[iKhayal18]

Ok, I've listened to the whole album. I think my favorites for now are Give life back to music, The game of love, Touch, Get Lucky and Beyond. Motherboard and Fragments of Time are pretty nice too. For me, the "worst" is Doin' It Right.

 

[Dicer]

Touch is magic.

 

[mattiewheels]

Panda Bear does a good Brian Wilson impression.

 

[subrock]

oh damn, getting some Tommy vibes from Touch

 

[Jarmel]

I agree that this isn't a dance album, no hard hitting tracks that just make you want to get on your feet and dance. Even the friggin' Tron soundtrack had songs like that.

There are going to be some amazing remixes. I can tell Instant Crush, Lose Yourself, and Fragments are going to have some truly outstanding remixes.

In my opinion all music is dance music, but yeah, this isn't as constrained by catchy samples like their previous efforts were. Live instrumentation leads to more open song structure.

 

[gutterboy44]

Eh, it's not for everybody.

I really liked Get Lucky and was hoping for some summer jams to bump but I could literally turn up the volume and put a baby to sleep with half of the tracks so far.

 

[andylsun]

just listening to Get Lucky on the stream and no other track. Starts at 42:39

The rest of the album can wait for my copy to arrive at home.

 

[spindashing]

I think it's streaming now on iTunes? Or at least that's what I'm gathering from twitter.

 

[Red UFO]

Contact has me air drumming like a mother fucker.

 

[LanceVance]

The drums in contact. So good. Very Tron like.

 

[jett]

Haha Julian Casablancas is unrecognizable. I really like this piece though, it resembles the style he tried on his solo album, but better put together.

 

[drifter444]

Leaked album.

 

[Hieberrr]

I really liked Get Lucky and was hoping for some summer jams to bump but I could literally turn up the volume and put a baby to sleep with half of the tracks so far.

Yeah, I definitely get that vibe. This album is a lot more chill and reminiscent than "in the time".

 

[Fifty]

just listening to Get Lucky on the stream and no other track. Starts at 42:39

The rest of the album can wait for my copy to arrive at home.

That's some serious crazy discipline.

 

[Majmun]

Album is slaying me right now. And I'm only on my first playthrough.

 

[wenis]

I think it's streaming now on iTunes? Or at least that's what I'm gathering from twitter.

nope. not streaming in the US at least.

 

[-GJ-]

The fuck is going on? Is the Itunes stream on? It's not up here in my region?

I can understand giving impressions of those super crappy leaked clips, but having 10 pages of people orgasmic over the full version leak is in bad taste.

People get instabanned in the gaming section for doing this; you guys are playing with FIRE

It's up on iTunes. It was up on Grooveshark about 10 minutes after it leaked. Besides that, 99% of the people in this thread already pre-ordered the album or is planning to do so.

 

[Nugg]

Contact is insane

 

[spindashing]

Leaked album.

No, I know that. I saw a few tweets saying that it was available for streaming on iTunes as well.

Not sure if it is true or not.

Edit: I guess not, lol!

 

[IceCold]

It's on itunes. I'm using it to listen to the album.

 

[Majine]

Itunes streaming is on here in Sweden atleast.

 

[Wes]

Fragments of Time.

I've just fallen instantly in love with a song. Took less than a second. I feel like I've just made eye contact with a leggy blonde from across a dancefloor.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

I'm not seeing anything on iTunes here =/ (in the UK)

EDIT: No, it's up!

 

[llehuty]

Whoa, contact.... WOAH

 

[iavi]

OMG @ Motherboard. LOVE.

 

[Dreaver]

Fragments of Time is a song I want to listen when I drive in a car on a sunny day. Beautiful. ( only 2 songs left :'( )

 

[MattDoza]

It's on itunes. I'm using it to listen to the album.

Seems to be rolling out to everyone. I'm not seeing it.

 

[twofold]

It's available to stream on the itunes UK store. Listening to it now.

 

[killertofu]

This is a lot more chill than I was expecting...but I love it.

 

[Djungelfrukt]

everybody will be dancing ALL OVER MY FACE

 

[cory64]

It's up for streaming on iTunes! (the Daft Punk page, not the RAM page)

 

[Nugg]

Ok I'm done. Amazing experience. I was going to repeat it, but I think I'm just going to sit there in silence for a while, and let it sink in
