Random Access Memories

Random Access Memories is the fourth studio album by French electronic music duo Daft Punk. It pays tribute to the late 1970s and early 1980s era of music in the United States, particularly the sound of Los Angeles recordings of the period. Daft Punk recorded the album largely using live instrumentation with session musicians, and limited the use of electronics to drum machines, a modular synthesizer and vintage vocoders. The album also features collaborations with Panda Bear, Julian Casablancas, Todd Edwards, DJ Falcon, Chilly Gonzales, Giorgio Moroder, Nile Rodgers, Paul Williams and Pharrell Williams.
So, anyone else listened to this yet? What are your thoughts? I'm absolutely loving it, even if it is a bit weird in places :lol:

It's a varied album, highlights for me include:
- Giorgio by Moroder
- Instant Crush
- Contact

The rest is awesome too though. Been on almost constantly since Monday :lol:
