My other favorite tracks include "Nightvision", "Superheroes" (why do I actually think of comic book superheroes when I hear that song? Aerodynamic" eschews breakbeats for an Yngwie Malmsteen-ish guitar interlude that somehow ends up meshing in a crazy blend of stomping bass lines and hyped-up harmonics. Doesn't feel like much use reviewing an album this huge, but Discovery is too important to me as a person not to.

Nightvision” is a mellow, wordless, Quiet storm-meets-Eno soundscape, while in an interpolation sure to gain plenty of attention, “Superheroes” marries a Barry Manilow sample to an unrelenting house beat. So I’ve got this 2 disc version of the Discovery Album, and it’s the same songs on both sides of one of the discs. These guys can go on for hours about who their influences are, and in fact spend much of the album doing so. Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" is a resounding standout amidst the retro/Vocoder deluge that transpired after Cher's Believe turned the kitchy disco device into a worldwide pop music trend, spinning a clever groove around an ever-escalating string of computerized seduction. This album has some of the most infectious melodies and masterful sample work in the history of music as a whole.I can't believe it took me until 2012 to actually get the whole album rather than only knowing 2 or 3 of the most famous singles. It's much poppier than Homework and has most of the hits you might know by them (no "Around the World" though). Aerodynamic" is amazing because it uses electric guitar like a piano player uses his keyboard, not just for show, but to extend and play with a melody, finally turning it into a music-box version of itself before transforming into my favorite song on the album "Digital Love". There are dashes of 1999-era Prince and oodles of new wave and disco cheese, from Harold Faltermeyer and Gary Numan to the Bee Gees, all set off with efficient house beats. The vinyl came in very safely packaged in a box bigger than I expected to prevent damage to the vinyl.

In March 2001, the electronic duo released their second album discovery, a total of 14 tracks, driven by the hit singles one more time, aérodynamic, harder better faster stronger, digital love…a multi-platinum album. Discovery is Daft Punk's best work in my opinion, and it was vital to me in developing my taste for Electronic music as a teenager. While Daft Punk’s second recording still focuses on the maximum accessibility that earned its debut such high marks, there’s less of an obvious focus on pop hooks. Very quiet in between tracks that aren’t gapless with lots of crispy bass and everything sounding even and true, levels are great and no discernible distortion towards the middle of the disc, probably helped by the fact that it’s a 2 disc affair and the run out on each disc is pretty large keeping a lot of the “music” towards the outer edge as much as possible. Nightvision" is a mellow, wordless, Quiet storm-meets-Eno soundscape, while in an interpolation sure to gain plenty of attention, "Superheroes" marries a Barry Manilow sample to an unrelenting house beat.Daft Punk's defining album comes directly from the horses' mouths, seeing a new vinyl edition in 2022 released via the ex-duo's own Daft Life Ltd.

Starting off with the irresistibly hummable "One More Time," the record blows through a head-spinning array of styles and samples, creating a pop-culture stew of funky loops and dance-floor anthems.

The most famous track on the album is probably Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger having been sampled by Kanye West. An exclusive unreleased track ('Ouverture') and several remixes (streaming only) were then accessible.We acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land throughout Australia and recognise their continuing connection to land, waters, communities and culture. The beat is so infectious that I found I absolutely had to move to the song while I was listening to it. They go around impersonating aliens and robots in their interviews, they put records out only once every three years, and they make music that evokes a million other artists--while not really sounding like any of them.
