Listening to RAM on Deezer, it's alright so far. Can't help but feel I need a nice hot sunny day relaxing in a park or on the beach to enjoy it properly.

Listened to RAM a few times now. Feel its good but not great. But then I really like Human After All which seems to go against the majority so not sure how much my opinion counts.

Also picked up Tron Legacy: Reconfigured and am really enjoying it.

I've given it a good few listens now and overall I do like it, but has some tracks that I'll never listen to again (Lose Yourself to Dance, a song that you would expect therefore to be able to dance to but can't, and Touch which sounds like they just recorded themselves guffing over and over again).

But then again my favourite tracks on the album are 2 and 5, which I don't think a single person has put down as a good track here so what do I know.

Instant Crush is great.

Album continues to grow on me.

Cannot wait to see 'Contact' close a future live set - surely it's nailed on?

I adore this album.

Contrary to most, my favourite tracks are 1,2,3,9 and 11 which I'm told are some of the least DP'y tracks on the album.

Also the album has something of the Crazy P vibe going on, which can only be good.

And whoever said Contact is shit is a cunt.

Contact is shit.

I'm quite happy to be called a cunt in this situation.

Deleted user 24 May 2013 21:57:48

I love it, my super into dance music friend said she was quite disappointed with it though despite being really excited about it. I guess that could be because I'm not into dance, I just love everything Daft Punk touch, and this album is a perfect example of that.

Enjoying a bit of a Daft Punk retrospective now. It's been too long since I've done that. Can you feel it?

I was listening to my favourite songs from Homework, Discovery and Human After All yesterday

Reading the past few pages this really is a marmite album. For me it's too inconsistent to be called great although there are great moments found during the album.

Would have made a superb six track e.p.

Regarding contact, is it fantastic and the best track on the album.

I'm loving RAM, some genuinly great moments. NOTHING will top Alive 2007, though.

Pure genius.

Deleted user 26 May 2013 22:06:06

I'm still not sure as to buy the new Daft Punk album, as i've not really liked what i've heard so far. It's just not *Around The World* enough. Even the Tron music sounds better..

Contact:

I'm just not getting the love for this..

I'm listening to Homework a lot recently. I think I prefer it to Discovery. I've not got Human After All.

@Bremenacht
Are you more into the heavier side of House music then?

Also have you listened to Alive 1997? Everyone raves about Alive 07 (justifiably) but I don't think '97 gets mentioned enough for how good it is.

Deleted user 27 May 2013 01:32:06

No, I haven't. I'll look out for it. I'll look out for both.

Normally I like poppier stuff, but I just can't sit still listening to Homework.

A million miles from Discovery or Alive 07, but Contact is straight up beautiful.

I'm still not sold on Game of Love, as I feel it's on the album a bit too early, spoiling the flow a bit. I'd be tempted to switch it with Instant Crush. I know it's a small thing and others will no doubt disagree, but that's just how I feel.

All I have to do is make a custom playlist I suppose, but I don't like ruining the intended order, even if I'd prefer it a different way. Yes, I know that's definitely silly

Still loving the album in general, far more than Human After All. Doin' it Right is definitely my favourite.

Has anyone ever seen these guys? They're playing in Manchester and I may fancy a dabble. But it's a bit like the Diet Coke of Daft Punk.

Deleted user 1 June 2013 22:50:28

RAM seems like a variation on Gorillaz's stuff, but not as good. Touch is just weird: Andrew Lloyd Webber meets Daft Punk.

Deleted user 1 June 2013 22:51:42

Get Lucky makes up for everything though. What a lovely summery pop masterpiece.

Gonna upload a couple mixes by Daft Punk I have for you guys soon (a couple for Radio 1 and one from Fabric), I'll post again with a link in the next couple of days.

Here's a few of the mixes I promised.

Couldn't fit the essential selection mix in with it because the max upload limit was 300MB, but it's here on soundcloud and definitely worth listening to.

I also found this site earlier: 25 Daft Punk live sets or mixes. The ones I uploaded are higher quality though.
