love each of their albums, but: 4. Human After All 3. Random Access Memories 2. Discovery 1. Homework goodbye Daft Punk, thank you so much for all the masterpieces you gave us. truly two of the greatest music producers to ever do it 😭❤️
In my opinion, it’s 4. R.A.M. 3. Human After All 1. Homework & Discovery I feel people under appreciate human after all, because if you listen to Alive 2007, human after all is a huge part of it. And it just gives Daft Punk that extra something, like, you have songs such as Robot Rock, Technologic, The Brainwasher, Human After All, and more.
Discovery never had to be a "conceptual" masterpiece. To me as a kid, it served as a true spiritual awakening where I realized that life didn't need to always have a "concept" or a journey or goals, I could just let everything stop for a second, breathe, and let go as life washed over me. Every lyric felt like a mantra, every repetition felt like a snapshot of a moment in time, a painting in which I could either focus on all the details or take it in all at once. No other album I had listened to - even classics like Dark Side of the Moon that arguably meet the same level of musical merit or higher - induced that kind of meditative trance and irrevocably changed my perspective on the universe. This is why Discovery is one of the best albums of all time: it captured the ethos of dance music perfectly but elevated the production, songwriting, and stylistic innovation to such an insurmountable standard that naysayers were (and still are) forced to rethink their philosophy on music - and possibly even on life. This was certainly my experience, and it's why my favorite genres are now ambient, classical minimalism, drone, and EDM. If you let yourself slow down and immerse yourself in the soundworld, the greatest of these musics are epiphanic and restorative to the highest degree. 11/10s tend to resemble unrefined immature hype and a misunderstanding of the concept of a ranking system, but to me, it demonstrates an album that is so mind-boggling innovative in its ideas, so meticulous in its structure, so flawless in its execution, and so personally significant to my development as a musician and as a person that the record genuinely ascends to a tier of its own. Discovery is one of a handful of albums I would personally assign that ranking. No matter where life takes me, I will forever be indebted to Daft Punk.
Dude, you literally summed up my exact thoughts on Discovery. DSOTM used to be my favorite album until I listened to Discovery, and I have yet to find an album I like more. I too would ascend it up to an 11/10. It's perfectly crafted in an incredible way. It's trance inducing and perspective changing. No exaggeration, it changed my life.
Discovery is the only Daft Punk album I can actually listen through without skipping a single track, while on other albums they made there is usually some tracks I find skipable. Discovery I can definitely call absolutely perfect.
Nice to see a modern-day TWA video on these guys. Also yeah agreed with the whole “they aren’t over forever” comment. Who knows what could come from them soon? Only time can tell!
Daft Punk are my all time favorite artist. They were the artist that got me into electronic music and music in general. You made a good point in the beginning. They may continue to create solo music and/or produce for other artists. Plus maybe after some time has gone by, there is a chance the Daft Punk project may be revived. Who knows for sure. Regardless, this was a very good tribute video and I'm glad you decided to go through with it (especially since you haven't talked about Daft Punk in detail since 2015 when you started making reviews). I expected you to put Homework at the bottom given your past review of it and while I disagree with some of your opinions on the album, I can understand where you are coming from. I agree that Rock n' Roll is by far their worst track. It's literally the only Daft Punk track I don't like. I also agree with your rankings, except I'd swap the #4 and #3 picks. Discovery and RAM are two of my favorite albums period. The former is one of the few albums I've heard that I consider perfect and would give a 10 out of 10 score to.
I love all 4 of their albums. That being said: 4. Human After All 3. Random Access Memories 2. Homework 1. Discovery And as for their live albums which I also love: 2007 1997
It depends on the artist. If Kanye announced he would retire from music I wouldn't believe it in the slightest. But usually when Daft Punk say something they follow through and it's definitely not in their nature to announce this as a publicity stunt. I wouldn't completely write off the possibility of them getting back together in the future but I find it very unlikely.
And yeah, I have no idea how they'd top Random Access Memories. That album was absolutely monumental and was an album where they put in ALL their influences and made the ultimate Daft Punk album. it was an album that they made because they could and wanted to, and I respect the hell out of it.
Homework is the debut studio album by the French electronic music duo Daft Punk, released on 20 January 1997 by Virgin Records and Soma Quality Recordings. The duo produced the tracks without plans to release an album Discovery is the second studio album by French electronic music duo Daft Punk, released on 12 March 2001 by Virgin Records. It marks a shift from the Chicago house sound prevalent on their first studio record, Homework, to a house style more heavily inspired by disco, post-disco, garage house, and R&B. Tron: Legacy is the soundtrack album to the 2010 film of the same name, released by Walt Disney Records on December 3, 2010. It is the only film score by French music duo Daft Punk. Human After All is the third studio album by French electronic music duo Daft Punk, first released on 14 March 2005 through Virgin Records ;3 :) [sigh] so much good stuff
Rock n Roll just hurts my ears, other than that I love homework But anyways thanks daft punk for some amazing music and legendary projects and those iconic robot suits. 👏🏻
5. Tron: Legacy (fav track: Derezzed) 4. Human After All (fav track: Robot Rock) 3. Homework (fav track: Da Funk) 2. Discovery (fav track: One More Time) 1. Random Access Memories (fav track: Instant Crush (fav Daft Punk song))
Hearing future funk talked about in past tense hurt. But I'd seriously recommend ev.exi if you haven't heard any of his stuff. One of the few future funk artists that really stand out.
and tbf it's not like the genre's totally gone or has no market anymore, the recent success of DJ Sabrina The Teenage DJ is a pretty strong testament to that
As for a majority of Daft Punk rankings, this is a respectable ranking. Personally, I'd switch the placements of Homework and Human After All (and also removing tron because I haven't listened to it in years). To briefly explain why I think homework is my least favorite, I don't like how it suffers from the 70 minute length like many of 90s album suffered. But hey, that's just me.
Love the music but can't overlook the vocals :( could've been a top band, I'll give myself time ... Any recommendations for similar electronic music with awesome guitar and keyboard solos but without the popish vocals? Thanks
no guarantees you'll get into these but you can check out: Justice - Cross Mr. Oizo - Lambs Anger SebastiAn - Total Saint Pepsi - Hit Vibes The Noisy Freaks - Straight Life The Chemical Brothers - Dig Your Own Hole Modeselektor - Hello Mom! Siriusmo - Mosaik The Prodigy - Music For The Jilted Generation (bit of a stretch but idk might be your thing) DJ Sabrina The Teenage DJ - Charmed (very long album that you'll probably need to skip through some tracks, but you might find something in there?)
20:33 Hey! I love Future Funk!. I recommend you to listen to "Desired". He is on Bandcamp and also Spotify. Probably the best Future Funk artist to date. Good video by the way.
I listened to TRON Legacy with my friends a day before the break-up. I will always remember getting the news. I wouldn't be able to define my tastes without Daft Punk and only 3 or 4 other names have that honor. Unlike other mainstream electronic artists, for me, these guys have proven to be almost as consistent as RDJ himself when it comes to studio albums (whether you include tron or not). I'm not making myself a worst to best but here's my thoughts on the projects though Homework: I like this one. I respect this album (duh) but I don't think it's as good as it is respectable. It's got a bunch of bangers, it's got its filler moments, I'm not a fan of the interludes... it's just a generally cool album Alive 1997: ngl I haven't heard this one before Discovery: I'm a bit mixed on this one too. I found that tracks 1-4, 11, 13, and 14 are easily some of their best moments in their career, and well, all of electronic music, but nothing else has yet to grow on me. As for usual, I respect it, but I unfortunately respect this one more than I like it as a whole. even then, whenever I make a top 10 on these guys, I put 5 or 6 songs from Discovery onto this album. When it comes to sheer highlights, this would be my favorite no questions asked, and with the front to back experience, it's still considerable for my favorite from these guys Human After All: I want to like this more than I do, but it's definitely still good. I have problems with this album such as the second half of "Prime Time of Your Life" but the good moments are always worth listening to the entire thing. I almost like every moment on here though, even if my favorite on here is no where near my favorite on the other three studio albums, but I do like the direction they took with it despite not being nearly original as the other three Alive 2007: It's exotic, that's for sure. I have to be in the right mood for this one. Sometimes I find it to be one of the most coolest mish-mash of Daft Punk tracks ever and other times it's simply headache inducing. On top of that, I still respect it as one of the best modern live shows TRON Legacy OST: I love this soundtrack. One of my most listened-to soundtracks for sure. I'm just not sure what to say about it because I got almost exactly what I expected based off of judging a book by its cover. It deserved its reputation though Random Access Memories: I became a fan of electronic music in the early 2010s before this album dropped, and this is the most popularity I've seen grow in electronic music hands down, it selling its way into diamond status and all. This album isn't what I think of when someone says Daft Punk, but it might be my favorite because of every track (except for "Lose Yourself to Dance" because I just can't get into that track) is at least good in my eyes and my favorite moments are just simply good enough to be compared to Discovery itself, even if that's almost got more favorites in my library than the rest of my top 15 combined. As for their work with the Weeknd, I like "Starboy" but "I Feel it Coming" is okay. I don't really listen to them. I tend to generally have positive thoughts when the Weeknd collaborates with my favorite electronic artists now that I think of it. Anyways, that's my thoughts. There was nothing out there like quite like Daft Punk, especially that could make it as mainstream as they did. They did amazing to this world the moment "Da Funk" was released, let alone until now.
I feel the same way you do about 'Human After all', I don't think it's bad, but it feels empty compared to the others. There isn't a song I dislike though. And with 'Homework' I think there's too many song's, I'm ok with long albums if it's worth it, but it's not with this one, it should have had 12 track's. I can't decide if I like 'Discovery' or 'Random Access Memories ' more. 'Doin in right' is one of my favorite songs.
Here's my list (WARNING: Opinions Ahead!): 4. Homework This album is weak in an album format, as it is only a compilation of singles. But there are some hidden gems here too like High Fidelity and Revolution 909. 3. Random Access Memories Even though this isn't their best album, Daft Punk pull out a cohesive and well put-together album. There are some duds here and there, but overall, RAM makes for an enjoyable listen and acts as a great sendoff. 2. Human After All I feel like this is the album Daft Punk wanted to make. They were in Darlin' prior to Daft Punk after all. Even with heavy use of samples with little to no modification, Daft Punk bring a more interesting aesthetic to this album by using their signature vocoders. I didn't hate any track off of this album, and, frankly, most of my favorite tracks come from this album. 1. Discovery This album is a masterpiece. It not only uses samples in a creative way to create new hooks, but Daft Punk use these samples as a foundation to create something even bigger, unlike HAA, where samples were quickly plastered and looped. The album flows nicely and there are no duds in the tracklist either. I do not listen to Discovery for one song. I listen to it for the entirety of the project. Daft Punk really pulled a 180 here. Instead of making another compilation, they decide to create an experience. I did not include TRON because i do not consider it as a studio album, rather only as a movie score. The album was not intended to be listened to alone, yet still pulls off a satisfying listening experience.
I’ve loved all of their albums and each represent a different era for our favorite duo. I can’t definitively say there’s a Daft Punk album or song I dislike, they’re just perfect to me. Here’s my ranks: 1. Random Access Memories 2. Discovery 3. Homework 4. Human After All I need to relisten to the Tron Legacy soundtrack as well, and who knows if they’re still scoring Tron 3 as well
@@TheWonkyAngle ~ not sure if was a clip from the movie, or styled like the movie. They choose that part for the epilogue though, must of had a reason.
@TheMusicMan 1994 ~ the epilogue shows daft punk going there separate ways, one not wanting to walk any further, the other walking on alone. Do you think that's a message of sorts?
When Homework came out we were all like "why do these guys rip off Romanthony and why does the world not know about it?" At least they had the decency to work with him on Discovery and expose the world to the genius of the late Roman Anthony. Anyone who´s interested where Daft Punk got their signature sound from, check out Romanworld from 1996: ua-cam.com/video/62FJl31hXrw/v-deo.html
NEW YORK - Grammy-winning electronic music pioneers Daft Punk have announced that they are breaking up after 28 years. The helmet-wearing French duo shared the news Monday in an 8-minute video called “Epilogue.” Kathryn Frazier, the band's longtime publicist, confirmed the breakup for The Associated Press Daft Punk were a French electronic music duo formed in 1993 in Paris by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter. rest in piece Daft Punk let their amazing music shine like a rainbow star ;3(CNN) Daft Punk are splitting up after nearly three decades, the French dance duo's longtime publicist confirmed to CNN on Monday. Kathryn Frazier told CNN that reports the pair were retiring were true but gave no reason for the split.
Daft Punk IMO: Homework; Some fantastic tracks but I'm not much a fan of it all, much prefer the re-workings on Alive 2007. Discovery; Love the first half, Face to Face and Too Long, but has quite a few filler tracks in the tail end. Again much prefer Alive 2007 for tracks on here. Alive 1997 and Human After All; Not heard. Alive 2007; Beyond incredible live album. Love how they were able to intertwine and merge their most popular tracks. Tron Legacy; Perhaps their best project imo. Random Access Memories; Amazing finale for their career and was my all time favourite album for a while.
I agree about Alive 2007's greatness however technically everything on that project appeared on other albums they'd released previously, it's a live album and not a studio album and as such didn't feel like it should count
homework is honestly my least favorite, the longest, most tracks are like 6-8 minutes and get old fast or didnt have a good foundation to begin with imo, HAA has more standouts in its length
@@TheWonkyAngle this will prob take a long time but can u review the Pink Floyd albums individually & with more in depth opinions on the individual tracks? I luv the worst 2 best vid but I’d luv if u ranked them all individually in a series about pf
Here’s my list: 10. Everything they ever made 9. Everything they ever made 8. Everything they ever made 7. Everything they ever made 6. Tron soundtrack 5. Everything they ever made 4 Everything they ever made 3. Everything they ever made 2. Everything they ever made 1. Everything they ever made
Rock'n Roll is your least favourite track? that's a shame. it's just a pure, unashamed fucking. tho admittedly i've only gotten into it years after i first heard it. Homework was one of the first albums i owned. but i was like 15 then and i remember finding many of the tracks "too repetitive" back then. i must have been really impatient 😅. come to think of it Human After All was the last album i owned. i stopped buying music after that, because copyright is bad.
RAM is terrible, HAA sounds like a buch of unfinished demos, Discovery still is pretty good and Homework rocks. Alive 97 is awesome and so is 2007, despite the crappy sound quality. Their Tron Legacy soundtrack is okay, a bit on the generic side apart from a couple of tracks, like End of Line and Derezzed. I never understood the hype surrounding this band. Homework was genuinely groundbreaking (bringing the French touch to a bigger audience), but the rest of their albums..? Not so much. HAA got scathing reviews when it dropped. And yet - when RAM dropped - a lot of people treated them like they descended from the heavens upon earth and were responsible for the rise of house music.
For me, Random Access Memories is the worst thing Daft Punk ever done. That album is so boring that i can't stand listen almost anything from there. I like all their previous 3 albums, but ''Random Access Memories'' is ...oh my....... god damn awful. I would rank: 4: Random Access Memories 3: Homework 2: Human After All 1: Discovery ''Discovery'' is arguably their best studio album they ever done and most people will agree with that.
ok if you say so dark clouds < if tomorrow is a ball < bubble.machine. < 044444 < inside the mainframe < spiral out of control < marble jar = noontide side attic drifter
@@TheWonkyAngle so the new one is ur fave? my ranking 8:spiral out of control i like it, but it's a bit too long and stretched out, a lot of the songs are too 7:if tommorow was a ball good but nothing above average, so low ranking 6:dark clouds good and above average but nothing too memorable about it 5:marble jar pretty chilled out and nice, would recommend 4:noontide side attic drifter very much a thesis of your career, it comines a lot of elements of previous albums, mixes it and makes one heck of an album 3:bubble machine very whimsical and upbeat, but that doesnt bother me as i am 11 2:inside the mainframe i cant remember much, but i do remember that in all its length and glory, its a good listen 1:044444 with your other records, it was just instumental work, which was good, but the vocals put a nice occupation to it, plus the nice sound you should also check out my review of it ua-cam.com/video/K50OqVYdSw8/v-deo.html also you should do a top 10 list of your songs
allow me to correct your title: "Daft Punk: Albums Ranked Great to Perfect"

Yeah
It’s finally here! Yay! Daft Punk will be so missed. They were really *Around The World.*
Truly, they were Daft Punks.
love each of their albums, but:

goodbye Daft Punk, thank you so much for all the masterpieces you gave us. truly two of the greatest music producers to ever do it 😭❤️
In my opinion, it’s
4. R.A.M.
3. Human After All
1. Homework & Discovery
I feel people under appreciate human after all, because if you listen to Alive 2007, human after all is a huge part of it. And it just gives Daft Punk that extra something, like, you have songs such as Robot Rock, Technologic, The Brainwasher, Human After All, and more.
@@djchaos2948 Human after all is underrated as hell

@@pikminologueraisin2139 I mean it's fine if you don't see it that way, but that's legitimately how I feel haha
Dude, you literally summed up my exact thoughts on Discovery. DSOTM used to be my favorite album until I listened to Discovery, and I have yet to find an album I like more.
I too would ascend it up to an 11/10. It's perfectly crafted in an incredible way. It's trance inducing and perspective changing.
No exaggeration, it changed my life.
Opinions on Bangalter's Irreversible soundtrack?
Discovery is the only Daft Punk album I can actually listen through without skipping a single track, while on other albums they made there is usually some tracks I find skipable. Discovery I can definitely call absolutely perfect.
If there is any music project in existence where the live albums can and should count in a ranking, it's Daft Punk
Nice to see a modern-day TWA video on these guys. Also yeah agreed with the whole “they aren’t over forever” comment. Who knows what could come from them soon? Only time can tell!
I really respect your opinions and love to see the content; thanks!
Also, my personal fav track is Human After All.
For me it’s gotta be
1. Alive 2007
2. Human after all
3. Discovery
4. Random access memories
5. Homework
6. Alive 1997
Just found your channel and I’m loving it. You’re exposing me to a bunch of music I didn’t even know existed, keep up the good work!

Yep, yep, yep. My list is in agreement. And ditto to Face to Face to being their best song, and one of the best tracks ever crafted, period.
Homework actually lives up to their name because it's daft and punky music and i love it

2007
1997
You forgot one
lcd soundsystem called it quits in 2010, but then they came back years later, so... who knows?
usually when they make an announcement, they seem take it very seroiusly. I guess one can hope. Would love to see it happen anyways

I almost like every moment on here though, even if my favorite on here is no where near my favorite on the other three studio albums, but I do like the direction they took with it despite not being nearly original as the other three
Alive 2007: It's exotic, that's for sure. I have to be in the right mood for this one. Sometimes I find it to be one of the most coolest mish-mash of Daft Punk tracks ever and other times it's simply headache inducing. On top of that, I still respect it as one of the best modern live shows
TRON Legacy OST: I love this soundtrack. One of my most listened-to soundtracks for sure. I'm just not sure what to say about it because I got almost exactly what I expected based off of judging a book by its cover. It deserved its reputation though
Random Access Memories: I became a fan of electronic music in the early 2010s before this album dropped, and this is the most popularity I've seen grow in electronic music hands down, it selling its way into diamond status and all. This album isn't what I think of when someone says Daft Punk, but it might be my favorite because of every track (except for "Lose Yourself to Dance" because I just can't get into that track) is at least good in my eyes and my favorite moments are just simply good enough to be compared to Discovery itself, even if that's almost got more favorites in my library than the rest of my top 15 combined.
As for their work with the Weeknd, I like "Starboy" but "I Feel it Coming" is okay. I don't really listen to them. I tend to generally have positive thoughts when the Weeknd collaborates with my favorite electronic artists now that I think of it.
Anyways, that's my thoughts. There was nothing out there like quite like Daft Punk, especially that could make it as mainstream as they did. They did amazing to this world the moment "Da Funk" was released, let alone until now.
I feel the same way you do about 'Human After all', I don't think it's bad, but it feels empty compared to the others. There isn't a song I dislike though. And with 'Homework' I think there's too many song's, I'm ok with long albums if it's worth it, but it's not with this one, it should have had 12 track's. I can't decide if I like 'Discovery' or 'Random Access Memories ' more. 'Doin in right' is one of my favorite songs.
Honestly,
6.Alive 2007
5. Homework
4. Human After All
3. Alive 2007
2. Random Access Memories
1. Discovery and Legacy are tied
Here's my list (WARNING: Opinions Ahead!):
4. Homework
This album is weak in an album format, as it is only a compilation of singles. But there are some hidden gems here too like High Fidelity and Revolution 909.
3. Random Access Memories
Even though this isn't their best album, Daft Punk pull out a cohesive and well put-together album. There are some duds here and there, but overall, RAM makes for an enjoyable listen and acts as a great sendoff.
2. Human After All
I feel like this is the album Daft Punk wanted to make. They were in Darlin' prior to Daft Punk after all. Even with heavy use of samples with little to no modification, Daft Punk bring a more interesting aesthetic to this album by using their signature vocoders. I didn't hate any track off of this album, and, frankly, most of my favorite tracks come from this album.
1. Discovery
This album is a masterpiece. It not only uses samples in a creative way to create new hooks, but Daft Punk use these samples as a foundation to create something even bigger, unlike HAA, where samples were quickly plastered and looped. The album flows nicely and there are no duds in the tracklist either. I do not listen to Discovery for one song. I listen to it for the entirety of the project. Daft Punk really pulled a 180 here. Instead of making another compilation, they decide to create an experience.
I did not include TRON because i do not consider it as a studio album, rather only as a movie score. The album was not intended to be listened to alone, yet still pulls off a satisfying listening experience.
1. Homework
2. Human After All
3. END
I’ve loved all of their albums and each represent a different era for our favorite duo. I can’t definitively say there’s a Daft Punk album or song I dislike, they’re just perfect to me.
Here’s my ranks:
1. Random Access Memories
2. Discovery
3. Homework
4. Human After All
I need to relisten to the Tron Legacy soundtrack as well, and who knows if they’re still scoring Tron 3 as well
They released an epilogue video that suggests one member decided to call it a day, the other member will carry on.
could be, but I'm pretty sure that video was just a clip from a film they released years ago
@@TheWonkyAngle ~ not sure if was a clip from the movie, or styled like the movie. They choose that part for the epilogue though, must of had a reason.
@TheMusicMan 1994 ~ why did they release that part as an epilogue?
@TheMusicMan 1994 ~ the epilogue shows daft punk going there separate ways, one not wanting to walk any further, the other walking on alone. Do you think that's a message of sorts?
@TheMusicMan 1994 ~ what does the message say?
When Homework came out we were all like "why do these guys rip off Romanthony and why does the world not know about it?" At least they had the decency to work with him on Discovery and expose the world to the genius of the late Roman Anthony. Anyone who´s interested where Daft Punk got their signature sound from, check out Romanworld from 1996: ua-cam.com/video/62FJl31hXrw/v-deo.html
my list is Human after all, Homework, Discovery, RAM
Hope they surprise us with one final release from them before they broke up, but I kind of doubt it.
My ranking
1. Discovery
2. Random Acesss Memories
3. Homework
4. Human After All
The only Daft Punk song do you need to listen to is Teachers from Homework then go look up those artist they listed...
Insert Get Lucky joke here.
You should definitely review birth of a new day by 2 8 1 4, one of the best ambient albums I've heard, really set the bar high for vaporwave
NEW YORK - Grammy-winning electronic music pioneers Daft Punk have announced that they are breaking up after 28 years. The helmet-wearing French duo shared the news Monday in an 8-minute video called “Epilogue.” Kathryn Frazier, the band's longtime publicist, confirmed the breakup for The Associated Press Daft Punk were a French electronic music duo formed in 1993 in Paris by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter. rest in piece Daft Punk let their amazing music shine like a rainbow star ;3(CNN) Daft Punk are splitting up after nearly three decades, the French dance duo's longtime publicist confirmed to CNN on Monday. Kathryn Frazier told CNN that reports the pair were retiring were true but gave no reason for the split.
Daft Punk IMO:
Homework;
Some fantastic tracks but I'm not much a fan of it all, much prefer the re-workings on Alive 2007.
Discovery;
Love the first half, Face to Face and Too Long, but has quite a few filler tracks in the tail end. Again much prefer Alive 2007 for tracks on here.
Alive 1997 and Human After All;
Not heard.
Alive 2007;
Beyond incredible live album. Love how they were able to intertwine and merge their most popular tracks.
Tron Legacy;
Perhaps their best project imo.
Random Access Memories;
Amazing finale for their career and was my all time favourite album for a while.
21:32 LONG LIVE Face to face!!!
Why in holy hell are you not included Alive 2007 in this ranking?! It is one the greatest albums I have ever heard!
I agree about Alive 2007's greatness however technically everything on that project appeared on other albums they'd released previously, it's a live album and not a studio album and as such didn't feel like it should count
imagine not putting random access memories on the bottom
imagine putting random access memories on the bottom
Imagine putting a cushion on the bottom.
I wonder what was happening over the past couple years? (making music or taking a break?)
I find it funny how he hasn’t changed over like 4 years
homework is honestly my least favorite, the longest, most tracks are like 6-8 minutes and get old fast or didnt have a good foundation to begin with imo, HAA has more standouts in its length
hey can i make a suggestion for you to review one day. Ed harrison and his neotokyo album.
13:50 u should review Polar by deadmau5
I did ua-cam.com/video/-aVrso4xhvc/v-deo.html
@@TheWonkyAngle u should do a full in depth review about all the tracks sometime
nah it's not interesting enough
@@TheWonkyAngle why? It’s still a great soundtrack to me so why don’t u review it entirety?
@@TheWonkyAngle this will prob take a long time but can u review the Pink Floyd albums individually & with more in depth opinions on the individual tracks? I luv the worst 2 best vid but I’d luv if u ranked them all individually in a series about pf
Here’s my list:
10. Everything they ever made

6. Tron soundtrack

I agree Face to Face is their best song!
1:50 Sophie who?
this SOPHIE ua-cam.com/video/ERPUbDIkPog/v-deo.html
Rock'n Roll is your least favourite track? that's a shame. it's just a pure, unashamed fucking. tho admittedly i've only gotten into it years after i first heard it.
Homework was one of the first albums i owned. but i was like 15 then and i remember finding many of the tracks "too repetitive" back then. i must have been really impatient 😅. come to think of it Human After All was the last album i owned. i stopped buying music after that, because copyright is bad.
Discovery is always my number 1 because it's so dreamy and impressive sample wise.
i would put RAM instead of human after all in number 4 tbh
For me..
1. TRON
2. Discovery
3. RAM
4. Homework
5. Alive 2007
6. Human After All
7. Alive 1997
you gotta get on to echospace...
Homework is EASILY their best work
RAM is terrible, HAA sounds like a buch of unfinished demos, Discovery still is pretty good and Homework rocks. Alive 97 is awesome and so is 2007, despite the crappy sound quality. Their Tron Legacy soundtrack is okay, a bit on the generic side apart from a couple of tracks, like End of Line and Derezzed. I never understood the hype surrounding this band. Homework was genuinely groundbreaking (bringing the French touch to a bigger audience), but the rest of their albums..? Not so much. HAA got scathing reviews when it dropped. And yet - when RAM dropped - a lot of people treated them like they descended from the heavens upon earth and were responsible for the rise of house music.
nice
daft punk = french cheaper version of kraftwerk
Well... kinda, that doesn't mean they're bad
Kraftwerk sucks
draft punk still feels inspired
@@smithfan22 yikes
Lol no
For me, Random Access Memories is the worst thing Daft Punk ever done. That album is so boring that i can't stand listen almost anything from there. I like all their previous 3 albums, but ''Random Access Memories'' is ...oh my....... god damn awful.
I would rank:
4: Random Access Memories
3: Homework
2: Human After All
1: Discovery
''Discovery'' is arguably their best studio album they ever done and most people will agree with that.
My list:
1. Discovery
2. Homework
3. Alive 2007
4. Human after all
5. Tron Soundtrack
6. Alive 1997
7. RAM
MY RANKING :
5. Human After All (6/10)
4. Homework (8/10)
3. Tron: Legacy (8.5/10)
2. Random Access Memories (9.3/10)
1. Discovery (9.5/10)
@TheMusicMan 1994 That's a compilation album of songs from the first 3 albums. It's not a studio album of new material so it doesn't count.
@TheMusicMan 1994 Haven't heard them enough to give a solid score. I'll let you what I think once I've heard them properly.
cool
rank your own albums!
ok if you say so
dark clouds < if tomorrow is a ball < bubble.machine. < 044444 < inside the mainframe < spiral out of control < marble jar = noontide side attic drifter
@@TheWonkyAngle so the new one is ur fave?
my ranking
8:spiral out of control
i like it, but it's a bit too long and stretched out, a lot of the songs are too
7:if tommorow was a ball
good but nothing above average, so low ranking
6:dark clouds
good and above average but nothing too memorable about it
5:marble jar
pretty chilled out and nice, would recommend
4:noontide side attic drifter
very much a thesis of your career, it comines a lot of elements of previous albums, mixes it and makes one heck of an album
3:bubble machine
very whimsical and upbeat, but that doesnt bother me as i am 11
2:inside the mainframe
i cant remember much, but i do remember that in all its length and glory, its a good listen
1:044444
with your other records, it was just instumental work, which was good, but the vocals put a nice occupation to it, plus the nice sound you should also check out my review of it
ua-cam.com/video/K50OqVYdSw8/v-deo.html
also you should do a top 10 list of your songs
@@jacksweeklymusicreviews3411 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😂😂😂
Best: Homework / Worst: R.A.M.
Tron:Legacy is an okay album to listen to, but it’s an awful, awful score, with the exception of one track. Truly repugnant. The movie blew also.
