We still have 50 days OP, don't give up hope, they're obviously gonna release it. Right?

I h-hope so...

Alive 2007 had the best fucking opening

>ROBOT... HUMAN

It's perhaps my favorite electronic album of all time, so fucking good.

Now imagine all of this, user:

-having actually been a Daft Punk fan since Homework, liking the old videos, initially thinking Homework was weird and abrasive in spots at first (Rollin' and Scratchin'), and then it finally clicks
-having purchased Discovery within days of initial release, and the master version of HBFS is so much better and more musical than the leaked, weaker stuff that Napster had (though I'm not as crzy about the new pop direction, there's plenty good here)
-having taped the anime clips on toonami before the Interstella 5555 DVD came out
-But then, Human After All comes out and feels like a letdown, it's too repetitive, okay they were experimenting but it does feel like they're falling off, Steam Machine is kinda annoying...
-But then, these video clips start coming up on Youtube. Oh My God, That Fucking Set. Oh Balls they're Mashing it all up! Oh Shit nigger this is great!
-NOW I LIKE THAT HUMAN AFTER ALL STUFF BECAUSE IT'S BEAT-FODDER THAT I WAS ALREADY FAMILIAR WITH AND IT'S BEAUTIFULLY COMPLEMENTING THE OTHER SONGS! :DDD

-AND THIS DELUXE CD'S STANDOUT TRACK, TOO LONG/STEAM MACHINE, WASN'T EVEN PART OF THE ORIGINAL SET SO I'M GETTING SOMETHING NEW AND ON TOP OF THAT IT'S THE BEST FUCKING PART OF THE SET

-AND I PLAYED THAT SHIT SO OBNOXIOUSLY LOUD THE FIRST NIGHT I BROUGHT IT HOME THAT THE QT IN THE NEXT DORM ROOM OVER BURSTS IN AND TELLS ME TO TURN THAT SHIT DOWN, I'M STUDYING DAMMIT AND I'M JUST SO HAPPY TO BE LISTENING TO THIS MUSIC THAT I SMILE AND PUT MY HEADPHONES IN! :D

Alive 2007 was both perfect mashup and perfect marketing/fan experience. It dethroned Underworld's "Everything, Everything" as my favorite live album.

Real talk tho, does Alive 2007 even count as a live album?

>daft punk
>in 2007
wtf!?
justice was what it was all about in 2007 if you dug electronic music
alive 2007 might've been good but it almost certainly didn't have jack shit on cross
t.enormous daft punk fan who thinks that dp died with discovery

please stop posting on Sup Forums

Why wouldn't?

Good, it'd be shit.
They sold out with Get Lucky.

R.A.M is good actually.

it has very little to to with daft punk
its more of a tribute to the 70s music than a daft punk album
its almost sorta of a cover album in all honesty

>artists can't do more than one genre
what's wrong with Daft Punk evolving and trying nu-disco, funk, and pop instead of the dead french house? RAM is a great album

>talking about Daft Punk "selling out"

You're an asshole. Daft Punk has always been a carefully marketed brand and has never not been that, with tie-in DVDs, bonus content (Daft Club), pins and doodads, etc. They sold fucking action figures for Interstella 5555 on their website. It's why the masks shtick: they do like their privacy but they also

Complaining about Daft Punk "selling out" makes about as much sense as the same complaint about some major pop act like Michael Jackson, which was always designed and built to make catchy pop music and get rich and famous and sell shit doing it.

The word "Punk" is in their name. The similarity with punk ethics ends there (it's not a fucking punk band), and everyone has known it for twenty years.

*but they also want to present an all-appealing, pop-corporate image that people can project their own stuff onto.

thank you, tired of avant teens who don't get Daft Punk shitting on RAM

Would've loved to see how they mash RAM with their older stuff

because that's not the music that made me a fan of theirs in the first place
had they made "nu-disco, funk, and pop" from the very start i would't have had even gotten to the point of noticing them let alone anything else

Fuck off.

These guys have been disappointing me for many years. They were on top of their game, helping to push the envelope for electronic music in the late '90s and it all went wrong when they began branching out, because they did so in the safest and most marketable way possible. Alive 2007 was a return to form for them, but it was short-lived.

I'll take The Chemical Brothers, Orbital and Underworld instead any day of the week.

That's your problem, not theirs m8. A good artist doesn't spend their entire career doing the same thing over and over again. The fact is, a french house album by Daft Punk in 2013 would've probably been very mediocre, that genre is dead and both of them were tired of it by then. They made RAM because they were inspired to, Daft Punk aren't the type of artists that shit out albums like nothing. If they make something it's because they feel it's necessary.

Did he die? I didn't know whether to call the police or not, I mean I'm done with the police they're shite

Yeah, Daft Punk is definetely better than The Police.

I'm assuming that it was a completed album that they just played live? Did they actually have any interaction with the music?

+ the Tron soundtrack, an S&M style live album would have been really cool, like a huge symphony and band with the pyramid in the back.

>implying discovery didn't fuck with disco vibes

Yeah RAM was basically making the kind of music they sampled off of Discovery.

...

french house?
discovery?
that's not what got me into them
acid-house,techno,raving culture,303's are some of the terms i primarily associate them with (homework era-the only which i truly like)
french house came after with discovery(at which point their magic had almost completely faded)for which i don't care
nobody even mentioned french house let alone asked for it

this
veridis quo = very disco
the title is a play on that too...

dude, homework is absolutely a french house record...
Im not saying it's all it is, it's also techno, but come on
>homework era-the only which i truly like)
jesus christ
then you're not a fucking daft punk fan, you're a fan of the album Homework
not saying there's anything wrong with that, but i don't understand why you're arguing RAM is not a true Daft Punk album and a departure from what made them good if you only truly like their first album...

>tfw I got Daft Punk's Alive boxset new for under $60

Let me reword what I said then.

Their music has been dog shit ever since Get Lucky and only a tasteless faggot would defend it.

the few live shows they've done since the release of RAM are fucking amazing. like the grammy performance
>no tour scheduled
REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
WHY WONT THEY FUCKING DO IT

heres hoping for Alive 2020

I get the feeling they'll release another album before they tour

well it's gonna be another 10 years then

the daft punk i see is not the same daft punk these newfag "fans"see,in fact they seem to be two completely separate musical acts altogether
for them daft punk is alive 2007,pyramid,robots,discovery while for me daft punk is this
youtube.com/watch?v=Fx80kEQPKpE

I just feel like that cause it would be weird for them to tour when their last record was released 4+ years earlier. At this point RAM is old enough that i'd expect another record before another tour. Maybe neither, maybe they'll pull an Andre 3000 and just stick to collabs and features like what we saw with The Weekend

ok

Oh fuck off you asinine cunt

alive 2007 was released two years after human after all which was a huge let down at the time
seemed like it wasn't even a tour to support the album. i just want a 20 year alive trilogy

human after all was released in 2005 and the alive tour started in 2006. But you're right about it not being a traditional tour in support of the album, so there's still hope i guess

This it's the closest thing to the truth to be honest, RAM is almost half a decade old, why postpone Alive so much since then? Can't be that after almost 5 years they'd working on the songs for the tour

>Homework was weird and abrasive in spots at first (Rollin' and Scratchin')
jfc

i was hoping they were going for consistency. releasing a live album every 10 years

>that genre is dead
It lives on as Future Funk.

We all did, but it's not like they're gonna start the tour suddenly, out of the blue with less than 2 months left in the year
I'm really curious as to why they chose not to do alive 2017, im sure it would have been a huge success in all fronts...

their old and not into touring anymore

it'd be a win-win situation for everybody

Calm down

if mick jaggers old ass can still hobble around a stage for an hour and half
then these two can stand motionless in front of an ableton push for an hour and a half
i think it's more of time restraints and working on other projects and just don't have the time, or like the other guy said waiting to release another album
theres really only a couple songs off RAM that have the energy for a live performance

i guess they could still put some random people behind the masks to be present while their pre-recorded material plays live
that's what i meant by "win-win situation"

>theres really only a couple songs off RAM that have the energy for a live performance
>Get Lucky
>Lose Yourself to Dance
>Contact
>Giorgrio by Moroder
>Touch
>Fragments of Time
>Instant Crush
that's more than enough

Fuck that guy, might as well post the entire album, also, I want various different RAM songs melted with Discovery songs before I die, is that much to ask? might as well stop postponing my suicide already.

Alive 2007 is amazing but I think Access All Arenas is the better live electro album. I'd kill to see them mix together RAM with their previous stuff too.

So you concede that you were wrong and retreat to a minor immaterial later stance, cool I win.

I assume you're the above user who above all loves Orbital, Underworld, 90s techno generally etc over Daft Punk's pop act. If so, I respect your opinion (if you read the thread, you'll find that Everything, Everything is my second-favorite live album). I get you. I myself initially balked at Discovery, and frankly I don't listen to RAM.

That said a group should be able to do what they feel, ffs, and you don't have to like what they're doing at the moment. For me personally, as a young weeaboo, the anime flick was the best possible thing they could have done (marketed), and it even holds up as a general story. Sup Forums is primed to shit on this kind of thing, but I actually did feel at the time like that animu movie was made for me, taking these two things I liked and putting them together. Then they topped it with the great live album. For me, there's just so much to like overall that I can get past the general "pop-shift" of their style, which has dominated their career of course, to remember what I like about what they do.
