Yeah I really like the intro for the album edit.
Yup. The best thing about RAM is that we no longer have to pretend that HAA was a good album.

I need more of this in my life.
Time to play the "By Your Side" album by Breakbot as a companion piece <3

I think people are thrown off because they expected something more aligned with homework or discovery. I mean if you watched any of those collaborators videos or listened to get lucky you should have known it wasn't going to sound anything like those albums.
That is a good album. Ive had it on rotation for a while once I found it on spotify.
Totally agree. Just by looking at the collaborators you could sense what direction they were heading with this album.

See I disagree- people who thought it was gonna be a disco record are probably gonna be disappointed too. Its way more ballady and prog than I expected, not a danceable album at all.
I really really enjoy it, but its a very specific sound.
Disagree. What kind of dancing are you talking about.
Digging Instant crush a lot. Has me and my gf dancing in the apt.

"Lose Yourself to Dance" is not danceable? That guitar track is about to make me jump out of my chair and start seizing.
Yeah I think once I accepted the fact that this wasn't going to be more in line with Discovery, I definitely started appreciating what they were doing here and even after going through this again it's really growing on me.
I didn't even think Get Lucky sounded all that great when I first listened to it a few weeks ago but I'm loving it now especially in the context of the rest of the album.

Danceable is definitely a relative term, but in terms of high tempo songs, or songs that would fit in a nice radio slot there aren't many. I count 3 or 4 at the most.
I wouldn't go that far, lol.

Only a few songs in right now, but I agree with MThanded here. Shit's danacble, but this is a different kind of dance. Somewhat more sensual and less bump and grind, haywire and nutshit. There's tact here, and would require a similar kind of dancing.

Giorgio by Moroder gives me chills 
Such a great song.
Such a great song.Can we at least agree that it's the greatest Daft Punk song featuring an artist with the initials PW?
I mean, if you take a broad interpretation anything is danceable. I'm not considering the ballady songs 'danceable' in the traditional sense, at least not in line with the nu disco sound of Get Lucky.
Basically, you won't be hearing much of this in the club or on the radio.

Ok. I just heard Contact.
I think I got high off of it. Can that even happen? The crescendo is incredible on it. Reminds me of good old aerodynamic from daft punk. <3
Good album, but I don't think it's better than Discovery, but It's so close. I feel like it's Discovery part 2. I will give it a few listens. Recently, I remember I didn't like strawberry bubblegum off of justin's timberlake's latest work...but after a few listens it became my favorite song on his album.

so instead of nerdlingers arguing whether or not an album heavily inspired by disco is danceable or not, why not tackle more important things such as the guitar tabulating the nile rodgers songs
lose yourself to dance is easy since it's just a groove on a Bb minor chord
the lick that plays up high
E-----16----13-----
B-----14----14-----
G------x-----x----
D-----15----15----
strum the second chord with syncopation and the requisite palm muting like a funky motherfucker
down low on the neck I like to alternate between
E------1
B------2
G------3
and
E------6
B------6
G------6
give life back to music is a little more complicated, any other guitar people take a stab at it yet?
