Dec 20, 2021Dazzling 80's synth masterpiece in a catalogue overwhelmed with career best. Equally pop and experimental it delivers a fulfilling sometimes obscure journey through a night disco you never want to end. It doesn't reach new heights or push boundaries for the duo but rather shows off what they've mastered throughout these years cementing them not jist as icons in their genre but in music in general.

May 21, 2013With this album, the highs are extremely high and the lows are quite low. Tracks like "Instant Crush" are far too poppy for my liking, but then tracks like "Give Life Back to Music" and "Within" are exquisite. Too hit-and-miss as an overall project, unfortunately.

album mt bom, agora só escrever pra passar dos 75 caracteres. -
Aug 28, 2013This is an overrated mess of an album. Too random and no access, this will not make any good memories. "Get Lucky' is the only highlight on this stain of a record.

Jun 8, 2020I listened to the whole album and I think it's OK. It did gives me lots of disco vibes and it brings me back to the 80s. (although I wasn't born in the 80s, I was born in 2003 LOL). Anyway I think I like this album. But I don't understand why this album won over Red by Taylor Swift at the Grammys, which at the end, as considered one of the best albums of the decade of 2010s.

Aug 22, 2014Gets all a bit bloated sometimes. It is a great CD, the greatest of last year, just flawed. "Touch" should've been a single. And "Lose Yourself to Dance" is mediocre.

Sep 24, 2015While grossly overrated, Random Access Memories is still a good album with many high points, but also suffers from a bloated ego that doesn't seem like the same duo that made Homework and Discovery. Though, "Within" and "Contact" are strokes of pure genius.
-
May 21, 2013When I first listened to Random Access Memories, I had a blast. Sure, there were a few tracks I didn't like, but I enjoyed a damn good portion of it, and after spinning it a few times, I realized that I didn't care about it anymore. Daft Punk's homage to 70's disco, jazz fusion and soft rock is an interesting direction to choose, but it's only meant to be loved once.

Jun 5, 2016My Oh My!. Daft Punk is my favourite electronic duo and this album represents who Daft Punk are. Not just one or two songs are the best. But every single song on this album are just awesome. I cannot even stop listening to them. They're literally the best.

Sep 18, 2013Daft Punk's greatest effort to date. Yes, you heard me correctly-- it's better than both Discovery and Alive 2007. It isn't even really close, either.
-
Dec 17, 2014Nadie se copia de Daft Punk, su estilo es único, así como su forma de ver el House desde su perspectiva mas empírica, desde sus componentes musicales como la experimentación con sus raíces, la música disco, algo que sin duda hacen mejor que nadie en el mundo de la música House.

Jun 19, 2013The french duo return after sitting back for seven years(not counting their score work for TRON: Legacy.) And they are back with a vengeance. With Random Access Memories, Daft Punk continues to show why they are the face of House music.
-
May 28, 2013This album sounds like a past-prime Daft Punk fading into the sunset. I think the album is competently done, although it sounds generally uninspired. RAM is nice lounge music and will be a shoe-in for some commercials. I can't be mad at Daft Punk because all good things must come to an end and when they were good, they were great, but this should be their last album.
-
May 22, 2013One cannot expect anything stronger this year. To dance and to contemplate. A bombastic return of disco gods. Panda Bear and Moroder as cherries on top of a pie are tasteful. Yummy.

Jun 30, 2013The album is perfect in every way. Since the first time I've heard it, I was hooked. The disco electronic beats are amazing. At first, I was doubtful. I haven't thought Daft Punk would deliver such an amazing album. You should definitely listen to this.

Dec 6, 2018Incredible work of art that draws on inspirations from the birth of electronic music, paying homage to the great Giorgio Moroder, Beautiful, soulful synth sounds that capture the essence of what makes electronic music great. Such high quality production, such emotion. This could be one the greatest albums of all time I thin

Jun 2, 2013One (if not) the most anticipated album release of the year, the duo awoken from their circuital slumber to once again shake the EDM scene. From "Give Life Back to Music" to "Contact", Guy-Man and Thomas dazzled our ears with the disco vibed LP. In their fourth album, many would question the LP stance as an electro music, but all (or most) would inclined that RAM is the best album of 2013 so far.

It is a masterpeace and i am sorry that you cant see it, society! -
May 31, 2013All that can be said of disco and funk music in daft punk is clearly in this album. full of innovative rhythms and giving new life to the music that we have lost in these last year, these guys came back with their best album in years. personally, I think is better than discovery although not as good as Homework but still it's such a classic album for new generations who want music with a 70s air.
-
Jul 21, 2013Daft Punk once again surprises us with a new disco themed album that represents the light at the end of the dark tunnel in the modern music industry. It's a hit or miss, but when it hits, it really hits.
-
Dec 25, 2017Random Access Memories is a great throwback to the soulful tunes of the 70's. Funky, spacious, groovy, thematic, and gorgeously arranged, Daft Punk made an amazing album without a single dud, proving they deserve their spot as some of the best producers of our generation. just sit back, put some headphones on, and enjoy the damn music.
-
Dec 25, 2021It deserves all the prizes it got. It IS that good. The addition of Daft Punk in a more focused Disco style is perfect, and the features of other artists just make it better.

-
May 15, 2014Daft Punk have continued to provide us with mellow beats and good songs. This is an album that I could lose myself in whether on my way home or anywhere else. Thumbs up!

Jul 26, 2013I have to applaud Daft Punk for doing something a little different than their previous albums. Random Access Memories is not necessarily one of my favorites from them, but it's solid. Get Lucky is a killer track. However, I was not crazy about Giorgio by Moroder. It's a bit long. And after a while I found myself skipping it to go on to the next track.

Apr 11, 2022A masterpiece. The best electronic album I've ever heard. A perfect combination of fun pop numbers and fully realized emotional journeys, It will leave you crying joyfully on the dance floor.
There are no skip tracks, but the standouts (imo) are: Game of Love, Instant Crush, Touch, Doing it Right, and Beyond. -
Dec 12, 2013Daft Punk managed to incorporate powerful emotion, playfulness, and melodic funk in what is arguably one of the best releases of 2013, hearkening back to the 'sounds of the 60s and 70s'.
EDIT: I originally gave this album a 5/10. I realized I didn't give it the fair listen it deserved. -

May 26, 2016It's a shame that most people only recognise this thing because of "Get Lucky", because it has a lot of wonderful tracks that are much better. "Touch" being my favorite btw.
-
Sep 20, 2020Este sin duda alguna es el The Wall de nuestra era, de los mejores discos de la decada.
los maestros del loop nos demuestran que pueden hacer un gran album sin samples, con variados generos musicales, mas por el lado funk, es algo increible y muy dificil explicar el como este es de los mejores albumes, daft punk tiene el complejo de que cualquier album suyo es excelente. -
Jul 2, 2013This is just an excellent example of how music and conceptual albums should be done. And that is exactly why the release started with Give Life Back to Music.
-
Jul 21, 2013Elevator muzak for cubicle dwellers, RAM mashes the sounds of a half-remembered past into golden, sticky goo that sounds good coming out of your laptop speakers. But check the list of ingredients and it says only this: corn syrup, food coloring, artificial flavors.
-
Jul 24, 2013It's more than overrated, it has its moments but most of the time it just sounds like something Pharrel Williams could do by himself (and in that case I'm pretty sure there wouldn't be a hype for the album like this), at some points I could hear Justice instead of Daft Punk.

Jun 20, 2013I wouldn't say this album is a masterpiece, but I do say it is remarkable. I like to think about it as the extension of some of their 'less popular' songs like "Veridis Quo". It doesn't mean that Daft Punk gave up their willingness to make people dance as they used to do, this time they wanted to make people think about their emotional B-side.

May 22, 2013Daft Punk's most intelligent and deepest album to date, absolutely phenomenal. The scale of song's such as 'Touch', 'Giorgio by Moroder' and 'Contact' prove that Daft Punk are STILL ahead of the curve. Personal favourites are, 'Give Life back to Music', 'Touch', 'Instant Crush', 'Get Lucky', 'Doin' it Right' and of course the epic 'Giorgio By Moroder'.

Jun 18, 2013Very solid album by Daft Punk. Still great after 5-7 listens, but unfortunately after those 5-7 listens the album gets pretty boring. A good album is the type that gets better after you listen to it more and more, not saying this album is bad in any way, but RAM lacks in playback value.

Oct 18, 2013Best and most creative work of Daft Punk. Instead of focusing on making futuristic music, back to the past, the genres of disco and electronica that was surely gave the album the innovative touch. Random Access Memories is not only the best album of the French duo's career, but also becomes the best album of the year.

Mar 13, 2022At first i was underwhelmed by this album but after a good few listens it grew and it grew and it grew in my estimations finally entering the Pantheon of my all time favourites . A joyous ,melodic and just plain "Daft" set of wonderful tracks . Pitchforks decision to down grade it means they can go f*** themselves themselves
-
May 26, 2013At first, Random Access Memories could feel as empty, but the more you listen to it, the more beautiful it becomes. It is a departure from their previous work, but this album is a triumph, and the very proof that no matter which path the duo takes, they know how to make it rock.
-
May 23, 2013This isn't what i expected. But in a good way. It hooked me in with it's nostalgic, yet modern feel. It's a look back, but very today. There are a couple slight misses, but as a whole, it is quite the sublime record. Looking for a hi-energy non stop all out dance record? This isn't it. Looking for a brilliant, retro-mod ride? Then pick this up.
-
Jun 13, 2013Great album! Every song on this album is just amazing. I wasn't much of a daft punk fan before this album.
But now I am! Brilliant Album!

Jun 5, 2013The un-doubtful style of Daft Punk is clear in every song. Old times come back to mind and I must say Giorgio by Moroder is one of the finest pieces I've heard him in.

Jul 12, 2013As a record standing almost entirely on nostalgia, sure, it gives schmaltzy ’70s dance music a fine, not-sacrilegious update and sets it to a pleasant neon glow, but it’s a trip through history that’s almost more educational than immersive.
-
Jul 3, 2013RAM has the immediate appeal of disco, but never overstuffs with candied hooks, even when we want it to.
-
Jun 26, 2013They've wisely chosen to not compete with the younger generation of DJs, and shown the upstarts the roots of dance music. They've also proven that they are not one-trick ponies who can only build beats on samples. They do just as well with a completely different sonic pallette.
