"Hey Bob I'm looking at what Jack was talking about and it's definitely not a particle that's nearby. It is a bright object and it's obviously rotating because it's flashing, it's way out in the distance, certainly rotating in a very rhythmic fashion because the flashes come around almost on time. As we look back at the earth it's up at about 11 o'clock, about maybe ten or twelve diameters. I don't know whether that does you any good, but there's something out there."

Ah, so that's where it's from. So cool.

 

[HotHamWater]

Ah, so that's where it's from. So cool.

I believe they mention in the Radio 1 interview that they wanted some kind of countdown for an introduction to a track. So they ended up contacting Nasa who gave them access to alot of their stuff which led to them picking that clip because DJ Falcon's nickname is Bob.

I'm pretty sure I'm remembering that right.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

What's with the French and their sincere love of things that people elsewhere (mostly) like ironically?

Daft Punk - Disco*
Justice - Hair Metal
Air - Lounge
Phoenix - Soft Rock*

Was the 'proper' way to respond lost in translation?


*I love both

Thank God there are still artists out there like this. I've had a lifetime full of people liking stuff ironically and making near parody homages to them.

Fragments of Time is so good. Find your happy place and bask in the music.

NEEATOOOO.

I need to stop listening to contact.

I need to buy more pants.

 

[Jarmel]

will.i.am's remix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6xIZAz2RVY.

This is bullshit, there is no way this is legit.

I mean unless this was done as a joke...

 

[Solo]

I need to stop listening to contact.

You will NOT stop listening. You WILL buy ALL THE PANTS.

 

[Ran rp]

This is bullshit, there is no way this is legit.

I mean unless this was done as a joke...

It's completely legit.

 

[Jarmel]

It's completely legit.

This had to be done as a joke.

 

[MThanded]

I need to stop listening to contact.

I need to buy more pants.

Invent time machine. Go back in time. Get song into 2001: A Space Odyssey.

 

[Biff]

This had to be done as a joke.

Nah man, it's already aired in Romania.

 

[Ran rp]

Nah man, it's already aired in Romania.

 

[Maedhros]

Loving it so far (track 4).

Daft Punk is the only eletronic music that I really listen. In general, 90% of the music I hear is metal and rock (specially progressive). They are really amazing.

 

[Jarmel]

Nah man, it's already aired in Romania.

I mean will.i.am did it as a joke.

 

[MThanded]

I mean will.i.am did it as a joke.

No he did it for real. It's premiering on 106 and park this friday with accompanying video.

 

[Solo]

Doin' It Right is so simple. Yet so infectious.

 

[Dany]

Doin' It Right is so simple. Yet so infectious.

Damn straight. That song moves me like no other.

 

[Jarmel]

No he did it for real. It's premiering on 106 and park this friday with accompanying video.

I have no words for the horror I just listened to.

 

[Dany]

No he did it for real. It's premiering on 106 and park this friday with accompanying video.

I will not believe you until its actually out. That can't be something....real.

 

[DJ88]

Damn it! I can not stop listening to Touch, I completely agree with Daft Punk saying its the core of the album. A true masterpiece.

I'm really enjoying reading this thread and seeing how everyone has completely different favorite and least favorite tracks.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

The Will.I.am... thing, sounds like someone is planting a log of feces in my ear canal.

 

[Ran rp]

After listening to it all day my top five are:

Give Life Back to Music
Doin' It Right
Beyond
Motherboard
Touch

Honorable mentions:

Fragments of Time
The Game of Love


I want to hear Horizon.

 

[Solo]

I do believe the ending 1-2 punch of Doing It Right/Contact are my two favorite tracks. Talk about ending the album with a bang!

 

[DominoKid]

Based mayne, based

Lil B loves Daft Punk too.

 

[Kai Dracon]

Fragments of Time just blossomed for me, now taking the melody and the lyrics in context of every track that came before.

Damn album keeps changing shape like a rubik's cube every listen.

 

[Big_Al]

I'm sorry I just can't believe that will.i.am remix is in any shape or form legit. There's no words to describe that fucking 'horror'

 

[Mik2121]

will.i.am's remix: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6xIZAz2RVY.

My head hurts...

 

[demon]

That Will.I.Am remix is not legit. I mean Will.I.Am is bad....real bad....but that's clearly a joke. I'm sure the real remix will be a bit more, uh, musically coherent than that.

 

[RoKKeR]

Instant Crush is really growing on me. Some great stuff happening in that song.

 

[cacophony]

My Dad works for Colombia, that remix is 100% legit

 

[Majine]

I think I'm reaching a point where I can stand back and look at it all. It's really good. Expertly constructed. Something familiar, yet it feels new. It's not as good as Discovery tho.

 

[MattDoza]

My Dad works for Colombia, that remix is 100% legit

Colombia, you say?

 

[amnesiac]

If the remix is legit, does that mean Daft Punk signed off on it?

 

[TheChits]

Instant Crush is really growing on me. Some great stuff happening in that song.

It may very well be my favorite song on the album. So damn good

 

[jett]

To you all

 

[RoKKeR]

Get Lucky album version is a mixed bag. The extended intro and bridge with the Daft voices are incredible, but the extended bridge with Pharell is boring and drags on too long. It also has a few really weird and sudden transitions.

Still a fun song.

 

[Ran rp]

The second half of Motherboard when the drums kick in reminds of Radiohead for some reason.


Oh my god if Thom was a collaborator on the album. I wonder how that'd turn out.

 

[Mordeccai]

I gotta say the first track on this album to have the honor of being stuck in my head is Lose Yourself to Dance. Its so god damn catchy.

I was playing it in my car today while at a car wash with do it your self vacuums and couldn't help but notice the girl next to me bobbing her head to the music. At least I think it was to my tunes, didn't hear any coming out of her ride. An employee walked by my car and was trying to emulate the high pitched "Lose yourself to dance!" lyric and it made me laugh, he came up and asked me what I was listening to because he said he loves disco and motown. Pretty sure I inspired him to buy the album when he releases because he loved that track and Get Lucky.

Contact has wayyy too much energy at the end though, my head feels like its going to explode with all the noise building in pitch for the entire back half of the song. I can't decide if I love it or hate it.

 

[VanMastaIteHab]

Favorite song is Giorgio by far.

 

[demon]

My Dad works for Colombia, that remix is 100% legit

 

[MThanded]

I heard there are a lot of kidnappings there. He should watch out.

 

[jett]

Gotta say I love the live drums in the album. They really can't ever go back to sampled music after this.

 

[Gozer the Gozerian]

Next album will be composed entirely of samples from RAM

 

[Defuser]

Staring at this + Give life back to the musc = The shit.

Try it guys!

 

[tanuki]

I can't get over how huge Lose Yourself To Dance is.

The drums are somewhere between something off Prince's Sign of the Times or Bowie's Let's Dance, the melody is reminiscent of If I Was Your Girlfriend (one of my favourite Prince tracks), the incredible vocoder melody with a 2Pac California Love feel, NILE RODGERS, and how relentlessly catchy the whole thing is.

Goddamn these robots.

 

[vagabondarts]

just started the stream...

YYEEEEEESSSSSSssssssssssssssssssssssss-------______ . . . . .

 

[PalaceBrother]

Favorite song is Giorgio by far.

I'm only one listen deep and that song was incredibly impressive. Agreed.

 

[sephi22]

Can't decide what the top song among these 3.

Instant Crush
Contact
Touch

All 3 are instantly recognizable when I hear them. All 3 get different emotions from me. I can listen to all 3 without getting tired.
