Instant crush is the only tolerable track
Sike.
Whole album is pretty solid, the only thing I would say is that the tone of the album might be jarring to some who expect to pack more of a punch like previous releases. It's definitely a more laid back "chill" album. I feel like it carries the vibe Daft Punk usually has in all their albums.

Q + A | Daft Punk’s Secret Weapon: Producer Todd Edwards
The storied house music producer Todd Edwards is two decades into a groundbreaking career in which he pioneered the cut-up sample technique that gave birth to the U.K. garage style of dance music, earning him the nickname “Todd the God” with aficionados. But it feels like he’s only been warming up the decks. A frequent collaborator with Daft Punk — he wrote and sang “Face to Face” from their 2001 album “Discovery” — Mr. Edwards reunites with the helmet-wearing pair for a track on their much-anticipated album “Random Access Memories,” out May 21 (and streaming now on iTunes).
But the robots aren’t the only ones seeking his services: Mr. Edwards, who has remixed the likes of Jessie Ware and Phoenix, spoke last week to a group of up-and-coming musicians at Red Bull Music Academy, a pop-up music workshop and concert hub in Manhattan. This weekend, he will deliver an Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1 with a little help from the Daft Punk crew and the disco legend Giorgio Moroder. Here, he dishes on his adopted hometown, Los Angeles; the politics of electronic music; and how Daft Punk encouraged him to go solo.
Q.
You recently moved to Los Angeles after living in New Jersey for most of your life. What’s the music scene there like?
A.
I’ve started to hang out with a couple new producers that have helped me check stuff out. For example, there is a young group called Velcro. It seems like God has always put someone in my life to open new doors. These kids that I’ve been meeting in L.A. have been introducing me to producers like Bicep, and it’s a little bit surreal. The music is great, but I’m like, “Wow, this sounds exactly like what was going on in the ’90s!” And then I check out SoundCloud and see on how many hits they get, and I’m just amazed about how clued in everyone is. When I was living in New Jersey, I was just sort of doing my own thing. I wasn’t even researching as much. I think when you’re around a prosperous environment where the club scene is thriving, like Los Angeles, it really encourages you to expand your mind.
Q.
Many perceive the disco nature of “Random Access Memories” as a pointed move away from electronic dance music.
A.
I think people have been associating the Daft Punk album as a strict disco album, but I wouldn’t say that. Everyone is making that judgment off of “Get Lucky” [the first single]. But that track is not definitive. I think the whole concept of the Daft Punk album is a return to a warmth in dance music. It’s about allowing dance music to have an organic sound, but still making it dancey and catchy.
Q.
What are your thoughts on “Get Lucky”?
A.
I know some people love “Get Lucky” and some people are more critical, but what I love is it reminds me of when I was a kid and I would buy a 45 record and I would keep playing that 45 record over and over. It has that vibe. But I don’t think it’s a rebellious act of disco. I mean, when you think of Jamiroquai, he takes on that sound as well.
Q.
I think “disco” has become a blanket term for the crisp, deep sound of live instrumentation within a dance song. It seems as if Daft Punk is interested in reintroducing the bouncy production quality of Fleetwood Mac’s “Everywhere” and other songs from that era.
A.
You hit it on the head. The new record definitely embodies that. It’s not just disco. It’s about those rock-style songs that you can dance to.
Q.
You wrote and did the vocals for “Fragments of Time” from “Random Access Memories.” Is this a preview of your coming solo record?
A.
Thomas Bangalter from Daft was nice enough to encourage me to really push myself on both my songwriting and my singing. He gave me some brotherly wisdom: “You have a great voice. You have the ability. You could spin off from what we’re doing on this album and reach a new audience.” The cut-up thing is not going to take me to a higher place because everyone is doing it now, but songwriting and singing is a new opportunity for me. Thomas kept telling me to not focus on complicated production techniques, but just to focus on the vocals and songwriting.
Q.
The collaborator video you did with Daft Punk has more than 700,000 views on YouTube. I imagine you have a lot of new fans now.
A.
Daft Punk is known on a global scale. Even if people don’t know who I am, I can always drop the Daft Punk thing. I don’t like to name-drop, but if you don’t know who I am, I can always say I’m best known for working with Daft Punk. Working with them is like having a good job on your résumé, or a good review. I joke that working with Daft Punk is like having a really hot girlfriend. Like, “Wow, he must be important if she’s with him!”

Daft Punk breaks Spotify’s first-day album streams record, set to beat Mumford & Sons for first week streams
At the time of writing, Daft Punk’s mega-hit Get Lucky has been streamed on Spotify more than 28 million times around the world, a figure we know because the music-streaming service recently started displaying song play counts. Indeed, Get Lucky was breaking streaming records from its very first day of launch back in April.
The album it appears on, Random Access Memories, is following suit (as expected) and is already breaking streaming records since it was made available on Spotify on Monday.

Daft Punk Bow At No. 1 on Britain's Albums Chart
Daft Punk’s “Random Access Memories” (Columbia/Sony Music Entertainment) made its expected powerful debut on the U.K. album chart Sunday (May 26), becoming the fastest-selling artist set of the year to date with opening sales of 165,000.
Its single “Get Lucky,” featuring Pharrell Williams, ceded top spot to the new entry “La La La” (Virgin/Universal) by Naughty Boy featuring Sam Smith, which in turn became the U.K.’s fastest-selling single of 2013 with 145,000 sales last week.
“Random Access Memories” thus overtook Michael Bublé’s “To Be Loved” (Reprise/Warner Music), which started with 121,000 sales last month. “Get Lucky,” meanwhile, has now taken its tally to 711,000 downloads, according to the Official Charts Company.

Official: Daft Punk's 'Random' Debuts at No. 1 on Billboard 200 With 339,000
It's official: Daft Punk's new album "Random Access Memories" debuts at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 339,000 copies in its first week, according to Nielsen SoundScan.
"Random Access Memories," released on May 21, gives the veteran electronic/dance duo its best sales week ever and first No. 1. The set also notches the second-largest sales week of the year overall. Only the debut of Justin Timberlake's "The 20/20 Experience" logged a larger frame so far in 2013, when it began with 968,000 in March.
The full top 10 of the new Billboard 200 will be revealed on Wednesday, May 29.
With 339,000 sold, "Random Access Memories" also starts with a more robust sales figure than expected. Industry forecasters had projected a first-week launch of around 300,000 -- with a chance at hitting 325,000 if the set performed strongly through its first week.
"Random Access Memories" is the act's fourth studio effort and second top 10 set on the Billboard 200. They had previously gone as high as No. 4 with its soundtrack to "TRON: Legacy" in January of 2011. Their highest-charting studio album had been 2001's "Discovery," which peaked at No. 44.
Daft Punk's last studio set, 2005's "Human After All," debuted and peaked at No. 98.
Notably, in one week, "Random Access Memories" has sold more than twice what the total sales are for "Human After All." The latter has sold just 125,000 to date. Comparably, Daft Punk's best selling album is "Discovery," with 796,000.
Further, "Random Access Memories" is the first dance/electronic album to hit No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in more than a year. The last dance/electronic No. 1 was Madonna's "MDNA" -- it debuted atop the April 14, 2012 chart.
"Random Access Memories" is led by the single "Get Lucky," featuring Pharrell Williams. The song earned Daft Punk its first top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, so far peaking at No. 10 last week. The song is also the duo's biggest airplay hit ever, as it climbed 46-29 on the Radio Songs chart last week.

It took me awhile but now I love the entire thing.
John Hein, Bryce Mathias, Aiden Andrews, Aden Taylor, and Robbie Morimoto in:
Daft Punk’s ‘Get Lucky’ has been inescapable since its release, but the CFDA found a way to put a new spin on the song of the summer. In celebration of this year’s menswear designer of the year nominees, the CFDA enlisted a spirited group of male models to sing along to the popular hit while dressed in cutting edge fashions from Thom Browne, Michael Bastian and Duckie Brown.

This summer, it seems like you can't go anywhere without hearing Daft Punk's infectious dance number "Get Lucky." We follow the French phenomenon and supermodel Karlie Kloss through the streets of New York as they are photographed by Craig McDean.

Daft Punk to be on 'The Colbert Report' -- luckily
Daft Punk, the French duo who pretend to be robots, will be joining Stephen Colbert, the American personality who pretends to be a Republican, on The Colbert Report this coming Tuesday, August 6.
t’s unclear just what the French duo—whose song with Pharrell, “Get Lucky,” should not need to be explained here—will do on the show, although it is clear that we are supposed to be wondering this very thing. They might perform. Or maybe Colbert will interview them. (Their names are Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo.) Or maybe both of those things will happen. But if Colbert does interview one or both of them, he will have to contend with the fact that they always wear helmets in public.
More information: The episode will be part of the “ColbChella” series. (The show staged something similar last year and the year before.) Colbert has recently been asking his guests to dance to “Get Lucky.”
More speculation: Colbert will likely reference the fact that Daft Punk only appear in public as robots, and may even allude to his own highly fixed persona. He might humorously draw a comparison between their helmets and Robin Thicke’s hair (Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” having — numbers-wise, at least — defeated “Get Lucky” for Song of the Summer status), or perhaps the exposed breasts in the unedited ”Blurred Lines” video.

The reclusive "Get Lucky" pair's "scrapped" performance may have been part of a ruse.
Daft Punk cancelled their appearance on Tuesday night's episode of "The Colbert Report" due to contractual obligations to the MTV Video Music Awards… or so the story goes. However, new information suggests that the notoriously press-shy French electronic duo was never supposed to actually show up on "Colbert," and that Robin Thicke's "replacement" performance was a pre-planned event instead of a last-minute save.

the album is good, but still Discovery is their best album. Has any one heard if they are going to tour?
