ShenanAgain Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 After initially being underwhelmed over "Get Lucky", I was a bit worried that Random Access Memories wouldn't be as ground-breaking as everyone had hyped it up to be. Of course, with all that hype, the album was bound to be beneath people's expectations. This hasn't stopped me from loving it to death. Once again, Daft Punk's latest album sounds little like their preceding album. It was fun to listen to just how different it was from not only Human After All but their entire catalog of music; what I heard in this album was surprising and enjoyable. The new sound might be hard for some fans to get used to, but I hope everyone comes around and appreciates it for what it is: a heartfelt throwback to years past. I myself have found it hard to get most of the album tracks out of my head. Current personal favorites include "Instant Crush" and "Touch". Although, I'm a big fan of most every song included and those I wasn't fond of I'm swifty warming up to.

Mare Tranquillitatis Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Well, all these positive comments are making me wish for the best. Guess I'll have to install iTunes to listen to it instead of waiting for the release of the CD, which I was seriously considering to buy, first time in my life...

Tenebrae Invictus Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I love it, but it's a lot harder for people who don't like 70s music to get into it. Already liked this track a lot, but Giorgio by Moroder's getting even better. And Touch too.

Gatanui Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I love it and every single track of it and Daft Punk overall and the entire world while we are at it. Of course I like some more than others, but overall all are great tracks.-Gata Quote - Gata Please don't use my avatar or signature without permission, thanks!

Tenebrae Invictus Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 RAM is like Discovery for me in the fact that it's very hard to choose a favorite. There might be ones I listen to more, but when I evaluate the aspects of it, I realize it's not much better than the other ones, which are also really good, so...

Makuta of Time Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 I heard the song Get Lucky about last week and never knew it was Daft Punk until yesterday, and I even didn't know the name of the song. I was shocked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vataki Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 In my opinion, Random Access Memories is their best album after Discovery. Like Tenebrae said, its probably harder for people who don't like the dance music of the 70s to get into, but if you can its an absolutely awesome musical experience. I recommend it highly.

ShenanAgain Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Have you guys heard the Japan exclusive track, Horizon? Of the instrumental pieces, I'd gladly trade Motherboard away to have Horizon on the album. I like how smooth it sounds, though it could be a bit longer.

Tenebrae Invictus Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 (edited) I liked Horizon a lot. It reminded me of the synth ambience different progressive rock bands in the 70s made. I have no idea at this point how many times I've heard RAM. It's just so great, I have it playing almost every day at this point. I've also grown to like Homework a lot more now, though Rollin' and Scratchin' and Rock 'n Roll are still unentertaining to me.
