    What better way to kick off a new year with new possibilities than to redo an old video!
    Joking aside, over the past year I had seen a ton of comments asking for a Daft Punk DDD redo. And with their breakup last year, I thought it’d be a great opportunity to revisit their catalog in full.
    The old DDD is in the comments, but this one replaces it in every way. Thanks for watching!

    Random Access Memories might not be the most talked about album these days, but I think it's absolutely the Rosetta Stone of present-day pop. Revivalist 70s/80s throwbacks with a modern dance influence is pretty much where the genre is at now. Like, did anyone listen to Dawn FM and not think of Daft Punk? Their influence is right there, it's obvious.

      See? That is where RAM feels special. A lot of ppl have the 70s/80s sound but are pretty young and are going with the flow of a producer, most may never listened to it. (Nothing wrong but at least having hear your parents play something always gives that feeling of appreciation where it came from idk how to put into words) Anyways, DP lived those decades and as Thomas said it was a "love letter" to those decades they grew up in. You can hear the influence and passion of multiple ideas of ppl they loved. That there is what makes RAM imo special. Them knowing what they wanted, what the inspiration was. They always had control of their successes and failures and they know how to lead.

    instant crush's weirdness is really what i love about it. that was the first julian casablancas song i ever heard and i thought his strange blown-out vocoding was absolutely angelic. i then listened to the strokes' first album for the very first time and was kind of shocked by his rougher natural voice from the band's early years, but i was somehow able to reconcile these two versions of the same voice just because they both had the same extremely compelling emotional intensity. then i got into the voidz and, when it came out, the new abnormal, and now in 2022 i feel like julian has hit a real sweet spot between his early singing style and that on instant crush. his voice and the song are real attention-grabbers, i'll give them that (and the strokes are top 5 of all time for me now. so)

      I was test driving a vehicle I had just worked on at my dealership. Had to put quite a few miles on it and hit the interstate. I was taken aback by the beginning and by the end I broke down crying. Can't explain why. I do know the last few lines were very raw to me. Sweet touch, you've given me too much to feel. Sweet touch, you've almost convinced me I'm real. That was the moment I couldn't hold it in. My entire day was spent trying to forget it so I could go back and listen for the first time. I've had similar moments when discovery dropped. I was 10 and for the first time felt overwhelmed by music. Digital love, one more time, and something about us made me become more than just a music listener. I really started experiencing music after those songs. Daft Punk changed the way I enjoy music and I can never thank them enough. My only regret is never being able to see them live. Alive 2007 would have been the pinnacle moment to see them and I missed out for no real reason at all except letting life pass me by as a young teen.

      Bruno Mars has carried the flag, but it seems to have become his 'thing' rather than a mainstream trend. There's still plenty of artists on the periphery that have followed through with it, though. Janelle Monáe has done pretty well channelling Prince for the last few years. And even further out of the mainstream, we had vaporwave and future funk as some of the most famous Soundcloud/Bandcamp microgenres.
      What we got instead were 80s synth homages across nearly every genre. So, it appears their collabs with The Weeknd were much more influential in the end.

It may have gotten a lot more hype compared to Daft Punk's previous work, but it is by no means forgotten.

    I do get that "Around the World" has only three lyrics, but I don't know why people don't talk about the fact that it's part of the legacy of all-time great songs that are reinterpretations of one of the all-time great disco songs: Chic's "Good Times".
    "Rapper's Delight" straight up sampled Good Times, which drew legal action but also proved that rapping over a good song is a great way to write good rap songs. After that there were more songs that took that disco bass/guitar influence like Queen's "Another One Bites the Dust", the Clash's "This Is Radio Clash", INXS's "Need You Tonight", Blondie's "Rapture", Dua Lipa's "Love Again", and of course "Around the World".
    But of all of them I think "Around the World" gets the genius of "Good Times". If you're going to make a song with a bass beat and feel like that you need to wind through the ideas while still letting the people dancing to it feel comfortable, like they don't want to leave the comfort of the song.
    It's not a coincidence that when Daft Punk decided to make two more songs like this ("Get Lucky" and "Lose Yourself to Dance") they just cut the crap and called Nile Rogers (the guy who wrote "Good Times") and asked for the disco groove right from the source.

    I know it’s a 909 and some some synths and samplers squashed through Alesis 3630 compressors, but some of it is just so difficult to recreate.

I am about your age and have had Daft in my life since Discovery so this deep dive is a great flashback in all the moments where they impacted it.

    Honestly I really like RAM. I adore Discovery just a little bit more, but there's just something truly magnetic about the production, arrangements and general sense of craftsmanship that kind of astounds me every time revisit it.
    Also, I remember listening to this this, along with Discovery, almost religiously a few years ago during a very surreal trip to Italy, so I'm a bit biased because of how fondly I remember it for that, but I still really adore this album.

    I actually listened to Random Access Memories just in the last week of December! I love that album with all my heart. It feels like I can put that album on and suddenly be mentally on the beach sipping some fruity drink as the sun sets washing the sky in brilliant pinks, oranges, and reds. It's such an easy record to listen to. Beyond will and forever be one of my favourite tracks from them, with it's gentle promise of knowing that there's always something beyond the horizon for the listener. I really wish that there was more in Daft Punk's catalogue just in general. Four albums feels like a small number for a group to put out, and it is, but each Album feels like some sort of evolution from previous work, and I'm grateful for that. I'm happy for the material that we have, and I'll listen to their stuff one more time (HA) and then some.
    Like, I was part of the 90's Eurodance wave as a kid, and there's a lot of material there that I'll crank up to 11. But hearing the strains of One More Time on the radio when I was 11 just hit something in me, and I've been listening to dance and electronica ever since. So thanks, Daft Punk, for bringing life back to music.

      I really don’t know how he’d do that, because there’s so much stuff and it overlaps so much. There are the four studio albums from when they’re an actual band, but then everything before that is just Bandcamp demos. The same songs are on multiple albums, a lot of it can get really messy. And if Mic wants to do a real DDD, he can go even further into the stuff on Bandcamp that isn’t even on Spotify. Although CSH is one of my favorite bands, I’ve never really went deep into their catalogue beyond the four Matador albums because it’s just confusing and I don’t know where to start.

    here's my daft punk related thing: i listen to a lot of music with my grandmother, and we listened through several tracks from RAM the other day. she had never heard of daft punk and she comes from an orchestral background, so i was really surprised when talked about just how much she loved RAM! here's what she thought of each song we listened to (tl;dr she loved it):
    *give life back to music*
    she thought it was really grand and really catchy. she can't stand repetitive lyrics, but even she was singing along to the "give life back to music" lines in the chorus.
    *giorgio by moroder*
    she thought the percussion was incredible, and she was truly in awe by the ending.
    *within*
    the song is a beautiful ballad, and she couldn't agree more. she loved their vocals, the swaying piano, and the subtle key change.
    *lose yourself to dance*
    we were both dancing throughout the entire song. we were clapping with the claps, we were singing along with pharrell, and the "come on, come on" was hysterical to her.
    *touch*
    she loved that paul williams was on this track, she thought the choirs were gorgeous, she adored the vocoders, and she said the entire song was immaculate.
    *get lucky*
    she was dancing along to the entire song, and even though she thought it got a little tired just before the bridge, the glorious vocoders got her right back into it!
    *contact*
    overall, i think this was her favorite song. she was wide-eyed when the sample started, and she was getting extremely into the drumming. i could see how tense she felt as the whirring noise started building up in the song, and by the end, she was in amazement.
