I just tried to access it on my iPhone but it seems like the mobile version of the itunes store does not offer the same streaming option. There's a banner to pre-order the album, but no streaming on the album page. Looks like it's only available on the full iTunes version of the store.





This shit is so good so far. Damn.

I'm seeing/hearing this already.





At the same time, I'm shaking my head in disbelief about every thirty seconds at the sheer fucking balls of it. It's just a massive, self-indulgent GO FUCK YOURSELF to all the just-add-water shit out there, and the great thing about it is they're utterly sincere. No cynicism, no irony and none of the wanky fucking buffers people put between themselves and a genuine, honest emotional reaction to the music. Which might be why it's going to sail over the heads of all those people who need time to work out whether or not it's OK for them to like it.

Man if Fragements of Time isn't time capsueld AOR at it's finest. fuck.





They are straight tripping if this isn't the second single and they dont try to get this on KWAVE. Platinum plaques abound.Shit is pony-tail AM gold.

 

[toby.d]

Fuck. I can't stand this. I love a leak as much as the next guy but I didn't want this one to go down like this.





The fear of missing out... It's too strong...

First impression: From a musical/production standpoint it's really good. It's gonna take some time to grow on me a bit. A little underwhelming in parts, but more than made up for in others. Classic Daft vibes throughout with heavy yacht influences (which I'm all about). They really gave zero fucks about another "One More Time" and just did what they wanted to do. I definitely dig it, and bonus points for the sheer amount of balls it took to make an album like this in 2013.





There was no way ANY record could live up to the "Thriller" level of hype this one had. The real question is, will all this translate into actual record sales? The record industry is in the toilet and if RAM doesn't recoup AND make $ this will probably be the last time we see something this big happen in music.

Just tweeted: This song "Touch" is like Vangelis' "Blade Runner" 'cept for instead of it being future Los Angeles it's the "The Love Boat"

Watching people get pissed over this is almost as entertaining as the record itself.

Is the whole thing gonna sound like Chromeo?




I actually like the song. But yeah, not only is it a total late 70s/early 80s throwback, but tons of other groups like Chromeo seem to have been doing the same type of thing for awhile too.





Which makes all the "dance music needs this fresh sound right now" talk on those promo docs all the more self-congratulating.





I'm not hating, but this album is simply another retro-inspired release among a sea that are just as good or possibly better, right?

I'm only two songs in... But Nile's fingerprints are all over this. Advantage, Daft Punk.

 

[BeatChemist]

This shit is like neo-prog-disco. All over the map sonically!!





and the fucking outro!!!!!????!?!?!?!??!








I can't wait to rock this in my headphones!

 

[Pony]

Smooth Jazz.





I'll stick to Homework/Discovery

 

[Controller_7]

Pony!!! What's up dude.





My wife loves Lucky and she gets mad when I sing the woke up a Mexican monkey line that I learned in here.

 

[Hotsauce84]

I've seen a few people say this album has "no soul" which is pretty odd considering that this album has had more humans involved than any of their others.

 

[Bon Vivant]

I wonder if the Daft Punk cover band will incorporate the new shit in their sets?





They are playing here soon, so I can cover this development.

 

[willie_fugal]

some of y'all might be interested in this... my friend put together a bunch of brass musicians in new orleans to record covers of daft punk in new orleans brass band-style. this was back in the fall, and they released the resulting ep a month or so ago. now they've got a new kickstarter that ends in a little less than a day, raising money to record a cover of "get lucky."





if you contribute to this campaign, you can still get a copy of the original ep on vinyl, which i think he plans on shipping out in july: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/Samplefreq/brassft-punk-does-get-lucky

We've rented an RV and are driving to Wee Waa to listen to it. I'm not listening to any of it till we are in the proper setting......(that being Wee Waa apparently).





I'll post some photo's in a week or so, hopefully.

 

[Possum Slim]

Listening to it now, the office working crowd that whistle along to Get Lucky when it comes on the radio are going to hate this.

 

[jjfad027]

Very nice stuff. Beyond is killer. Guitars on Lose Yourself are perfect.
