urluckyday Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Anyone on LF a huge Daft Punk fan like me? A little over a month until the new album drops! (This BBCode requires its accompanying plugin to work properly.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingerhs Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 i wouldn't call myself a huge Daft Punk fan, but i've definitely been wanting to see some new stuff from them for a while now (the Tron: Legacy soundtrack only partially counts in my book). been getting my electro fix from Deadmau5 and assorted dubstep, but i could really use a shot of their creativity.

adamqd Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Big fan here, although I'd say my peak "fandom" was around 1997- 2002, not because they began to suck or anything, just that those were the years I was Clubbing and being mainstream, like going to shows, DJ sets and clubs across Europe. after that I went back to my classic Rock roots and less of a party lifestyle. But yes, I will definitely be getting this album, and the sneak peak track is sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the reason why I love Daft Punk so much is because they really fill sort of a niche that they created. Like there's just no way to put a finger on their type of music. Where as Deadmau5 and others fit into dubstep, Daft Punk just kind of has a genre on its own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urluckyday Posted April 18, 2013 Author Share Posted April 18, 2013 Could this be the first actual leak of the full song? Pretty incredible fake if it's not... http://news.beatport.com/blog/2013/04/17/daft-punk-stream-get-lucky-featuring-pharrell-williams-and-nile-rodgers-in-full/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ctrl Alt Del Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 Yep, huge fan here as well. Been expecting this new album for months. Only Daft Punk fills the interwebs with dozens of remixes and extended versions of a 15 seconds long song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

urluckyday Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Get ready - the OFFICIAL "Get Lucky" single is going to be released at 12:01 am (ET)! A little over 20 minutes from now! http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1705910/daft-punk-get-lucky-release.jhtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taak Farst Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I kinda like Get Lucky, but it's definitely not one of the best tracks EDIT: Well, lemme add to that. It's amazing. Definitely gets better with each listen. God I can't help but uncontrollably sing along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely gets better with each listen. God I can't help but uncontrollably sing along. It's definitely different. This isn't Daft Punk's first inclusion of a noticeable amount of lyrics into their music but after the mechanical nature of the "Human After All" album (which I still enjoyed), this is a welcome return. Daft Punk's style just changes so drastically with EVERY album they come out with and that's one of the biggest reasons why I love them - but no matter what, they always make it so funky! Based on this song alone, I think we're looking at an album jam-packed with funky grooves which are reminiscent of the disco era - something that I'm definitely looking forward to. Also keep in mind that this is specifically termed the "radio edit" of Get Lucky. I saw somewhere that the full album version is over 6 minutes long which would leave me to believe that there are more guitar riffs and you hear some more from the "robots."

Sith Holocron Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I hope they'll be doing the score for the next Tron movie too when it eventually comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pho3nix Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 While I don't consider myself a fan, I really enjoyed the Tron soundtrack... I'll definitely put the new album on my "to-listen" list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urluckyday Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 I hope they'll be doing the score for the next Tron movie too when it eventually comes out. I have to imagine that they'd be asked. With Daft Punk's record of not wanting to create the same sound over multiple albums, it's unclear as to whether or not they would want to do another Tron soundtrack.

Isaac Clarke Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Oh man, I remember Daft Punk. I used to be a huge fan, but I totally forgot about them after they failed to release a new album after 8 years. Definitely excited for this new album, though.

adamqd Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 This was the track that got me in to daft punk, I picked it up by accident on Vinyl for a DJ set back in like 1996 I think...

Taak Farst Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I wasn't even a year old when that album was released. But oh my god I have done nothing but listen to Random Access Memories over and over. What a brilliant return! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But oh my god I have done nothing but listen to Random Access Memories over and over. What a brilliant return! Agreed! It's oh so fresh and different - exactly what the people need right now. I was so surprised to see that you could stream the entire album from iTunes ahead of the release date, but it's absolutely great. It's also nice because it kinda forces you to listen to the album all at once which is the way that you're supposed to listen to it, so you get the full experience.

urluckyday Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 There's just something so refreshing about everything Daft Punk puts out. Revolution 909 was the first song I heard from Daft Punk that wasn't on the Discovery album. That's when I knew that I LOVED Daft Punk and not just an album they did. Such a classic.
