When Daft Punk announced they were releasing a new album eight years after 2005's Human After All, fans were starved for new material. The Tron: Legacy score indulged the seminal dance duo's sci-fi fantasies but didn't offer much in the way of catchy songs, so when Random Access Memories' extensive publicity campaign featured tantalizing clips of a new single, "Get Lucky," their fan base exploded. But when the album finally arrived, that hugely hyped single was buried far down its track list, emphasizing that most of these songs are very much not like "Get Lucky" -- or a lot of the pair's previous music, at least on the surface. The album isn't much like 2010s EDM, either. Instead, Daft Punk separate themselves from most contemporary electronic music and how it's made, enlisting some of their biggest influences to help them get the sounds they needed without samples. On Homework's "Teachers," they reverently name-checked a massive list of musicians and producers; here, they place themselves on equal footing with disco masterminds Giorgio Moroder and Nile Rodgers, referring to them as "collaborators." That could be self-aggrandizing, yet it's also strangely humble when they take a back seat to their co-stars, especially on one of RAM's definitive moments, "Giorgio by Moroder," where the producer shares his thoughts on making music with wild guitar and synth solos trailing behind him. Elsewhere, Daft Punk nod to their symbiotic relationship with indie on the lovely "Doin' It Right," which makes the most of Panda Bear's boyish vocals, and on the Julian Casablancas cameo "Instant Crush," which is only slightly more electronic than the Strokes' Comedown Machine. And of course, Pharrell Williams is the avatar of their dancefloor mastery on the sweaty disco of "Lose Yourself to Dance" as well as "Get Lucky," which is so suave that it couldn't help but be an instant classic, albeit a somewhat nostalgic one. Indeed, "memories" is the album's keyword: Daft Punk celebrate the late '70s and early '80s with lavish homages like "Give Life Back to Music" -- one of several terrific showcases for Rodgers -- and the spot-on soft rock of the Todd Edwards collaboration "Fragments of Time." More importantly, Random Access Memories taps into the wonder and excitement in that era's music. A particularly brilliant example is "Touch," where singer/songwriter Paul Williams conflates his work in Phantom of the Paradise and The Muppet Movie in the song's mystique, c

「トロン:レガシー」のサントラを挿みつつ、オリジナル作としては8年ぶり、レーベル移籍第1弾となるニュー・アルバムだ。もともとディスコ・リエディットやザックリしたネタ使いの妙が大きな魅力だっただけに、ほぼサンプルを排して演奏家を起用したことを証左に〈生のパワー〉とか〈ホンモノ〉とか絶賛されている様子は、そういう変な〈オリジナル〉や〈人力〉信仰のある層にもアピールしたようでいろいろ感慨深い。冒頭からサンプリングのように正確なナイル・ロジャースのギターが小気味良く響き、メロウな西海岸テイストの導入は今回もスムース。大らかで甘い作風はミュージシャンシップの導入というよりブギーな時流の変化によってもたらされたものではないかと思うが、今回も大傑作なのは言うまでもない。

フィルター・ハウスやエレクトロなど、リリースのたびに新たな時流を切り開く彼らですが、今作ではディスコ〜ブギーのトレンドを大きく押し進めた感。ファレルやナイル・ロジャース、モロダーの人選もグラミー受賞も全てが完璧。
これには驚いた!ダフトパンクは1stこそが素晴らしいと思い込んでいた頭が硬い自分のダフトパンクヒステリーをこの作品が覆してくれました。ダンスミュージックへのアプローチはテクノロジーの進化に寄る所も大きいですが今作の持つ妙な懐かしさは普遍的に持つ肉体性こそがダンスミュージックの魅力なんだと言わんばかり。最高です。
