Alive 1997
New - LP - RP1 113912
Sealed 2014 180gm Reissue Of Their 2001 Live Album. Custom Hype Sticker On Shrink. “Alive 1997 Reveals The French Duo Daft Punk As One Of The Brightest Entertainers In The Occasionally Stale World Of Album-Based Electronic Dance. True, Techno And House Djs Can Light Up A Crowd Like Few Others, But The Increasing Artist Slant Of Electronica Often Results In Push-Button Programming And Straight-From-DAT Live Performances, With Most Of The Heavy Lifting Relegated To The Lighting Supervisor And Effects Computers. This Brief Glimpse At Daft Punk's Live Show Circa 1997 (Their Major Breakout Year) Is A Tour De Force Of High-Energy Theatrics And Flair. Aside From The Pair Of "WDPK" Interludes, Alive 1997 Includes Only Three Tracks, But They're So Radically Different From Their Album Versions That They're Only Barely Familiar. The Duo's Biggest Hit So Far, "Da Funk," Is Stretched Out To 16 Minutes With A Start-And-Stop Improvisation Section That Brings The Crowd To A Peak, While "Rollin' & Scratchin'" Never Looks Back After Breaking Right On Through The Red-Line. An Energizing Document, Alive 1997 Is One Of The Few Live Records To Approximate The Excitement Of The Original Live Show.” – John Bush, AMG

New - LP - 0190296617164
Sealed 2022 2LP Gatefold Reissue. "Four Long Years After Their Debut, Homework, Daft Punk Returned With A Second Full-length, Also Packed With Excellent Productions And Many Of The Obligatory Nods To The Duo's Favorite Stylistic Speed Bumps Of The 1970s And '80s. Discovery Is By No Means The Same Record, Though. Deserting The Shrieking Acid House Hysteria Of Their Early Work, The Album Moves In The Same Smooth Filtered Disco Circles As The European Dance Smashes ("Music Sounds Better With You" And "Gym Tonic") That Were Co-produced By Dp's Thomas Bangalter During The Group's Long Interim. If Homework Was Daft Punk's Chicago House Record, This Is Definitely The New York Garage Edition, With Co-productions And Vocals From Romanthony And Todd Edwards, Two Of The Brightest Figures Based In New Jersey's Fertile Garage Scene. Also In Common With Classic East Coast Dance And '80s R&b, Discovery Surprisingly Focuses On Songwriting And Concise Productions, Though The Pair's Visions Of Bucolic Pop On "Digital Love" And "Something About Us" Are Delivered By An Androgynous, Vocoderized Frontman Singing Trite (Though Rather Endearing) Love Lyrics. "One More Time," The Irresistible Album Opener And First Single, Takes Bangalter's "Music Sounds Better With You" As A Blueprint, Blending Sampled Horns With Some Retro Bass Thump And The Gorgeous, Extroverted Vocals Of Romanthony Going Round And Round With Apparently Endless Tweakings. Though "Aerodynamic" And "Superheroes" Have A Bit Of The Driving Acid Minimalism Associated With Homework, Here Daft Punk Is More Taken With The Glammier, Poppier Sound Of Eurodisco And Late R&b. Abusing Their Pitch-bend And Vocoder Effects As Though They Were Going Out Of Style (About 15 Years Too Late, Come To Think Of It), The Duo Loops Nearly Everything They Can Get Their Sequencers On -- Divas, Vocoders, Synth-guitars, Electric Piano -- And Conjures A Sound Worthy Of Bygone Electro-pop Technicians From Giorgio Moroder To Todd Rundgren To Steve Miller. Daft Punk Are Such Stellar, Meticulous Producers That They Make Any Sound Work, Even Superficially Dated Ones Like Spastic Early-'80s Electro/r&b ("Short Circuit") Or Faux-orchestral Synthesizer Baroque ("Veridis Quo"). The Only Crime Here Is Burying The Highlight Of The Entire Lp Near The End. "Face To Face," A Track With Garage Wunderkind Todd Edwards, Twists His Trademarked Split-second Samples And Fully Fragmented Vision Of Garage Into A Dance-pop Hit That Could've Easily Stormed The Charts In 1987. Daft Punk Even Manage A Sense Of Humor About Their Own Work, Closing With A Ten-minute Track Aptly Titled "Too Long."" AMG Review By John Bush.

Random Access Memories (10th Anniversary Edition)
New - LP - 19658773731
Sealed 2023 3LP 10th anniversary expanded edition. Features 9 previously unreleased outtakes + a poster housed in a deluxe tri-fold jacket. Custom hype sticker on shrink. "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 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 Nile Rodgers and Giorgio Moroder, who shares his thoughts on making music with wild guitar and synth solos trailing behind him on one of RAM's definitive moments, "Giorgio by Moroder." Elsewhere, Daft Punk celebrate their close relationship with indie music 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" and "Get Lucky," which is so suave that it couldn't help but be an instant classic, albeit a somewhat nostalgic one. "Memories" is the album's keyword: As Daft Punk celebrate the late '70s and early '80s with deluxe 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," they tap 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, charm, and unabashed emotions. Daft Punk have never shied away from "uncool" influences or sentimentality, and both are on full display throughout Random Access Memories. It's the kind of grand, album rock statement that listeners of the '70s and '80s would have spent weeks or months dissecting and absorbing -- the ambition of Steely Dan, Alan Parsons, and Pink Floyd are as vital to the album as any of the duo's collaborators. For the casual Daft Punk fan, this album might be harder to love than "Get Lucky" hinted; it might be too nostalgic, too overblown, a shirking of the group's duty to rescue dance music from the Young Turks who cropped up in their absence. But Random Access Memories is also Daft Punk's most personal work, and richly rewarding for listeners willing to spend time with it." All Music Guide - Heather Phares

Used - LP - 5054197919916

Known for its warm, laid-back rhythm and the soft, computerized vocals that express tender longing, "Something About Us" stands out as a poignant piece in Daft Punk's discography. The track's association with the animated film "Interstella 5555," which visually narrates the "Discovery" album, adds an extra layer of narrative, complementing its heartfelt tone.
The vinyl release serves as a collector's item for fans of Daft Punk and those who appreciate the fusion of music and storytelling. Its cover art, reminiscent of the bold and colorful aesthetic of "Interstella 5555," provides a visual representation of the song's themes.

TRON: Legacy (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)
New - LP - D001356101 ST01
Sealed 2022 2LP Repress, Housed In An Embossed Gatefold Jacket. Features Two Previously Unreleased Tracks. "The Game Has Changed" Is The Name Of One Of The Tracks On Daft Punk's Score To Tron: Legacy, And It Also Fits Thomas Bangalter And Guy-manuel De Homem-christo's Music For The Film. When It Was Announced That The Duo Would Score The Sequel To One Of Sci-fi's Most Visionary Movies, It Seemed Like The Perfect Fit: Their Sleek, Neon-tipped, Playful Aesthetic Springs From Their Love Of Late-'70s And Early-'80s Pop Culture Artifacts Like Tron. However, Tron: Legacy Takes A Much Darker, More Serious Approach Than The Original Film And Daft Punk Follows Suit, Delivering Soaring And Ominous Pieces That Sound More Like Modern Classical Music Than Any Laser Tag-meets-roller Disco Fantasies Fans May Have Had. Tron: Legacy's Legitimacy As A Score May Surprise Listeners Unaware Of Bangalter's Fine Work On 2003's Irreversible; While That Score Actually Hews Closer To Daft Punk's Sound, It Showed His Potential For Crafting Music Beyond The Duo's Usual Scope. Working With The London Orchestra, Bangalter And De Homem-christo Fuse Electronic And Orchestral Motifs Seamlessly And Strikingly. "The Game Has Changed" May Be The Most Dramatic Example: It Starts With A Wistful Wisp Of Melody That Sounds Like A Ghost In The Machine, Then Swells Of Strings And Brass And Buzzsaw Electronics Submerge But Never Quite Overtake It. Elsewhere, "Recognizer"'s Pulsing Horns And Synths And "The Son Of Flynn"'s Arpeggios And Strings Are So Tightly Knit That They Finish Each Others' Phrases. Daft Punk Get In A Few Clever Nods To Wendy Carlos' Tron Score, From "The Grid"'s Blobby Analog Synth Tones To "Adagio For Tron"'s Mournful Sense Of Lost Wonder. However, For Most Of Tron: Legacy, They're Concerned With Pushing Boundaries. It's Not Until The Score's Second Half That The Duo's More Typical Sound Emerges On "Derezzed"'s Filter-disco And On "End Of The Line," Where Witty 8-bit Sounds Evoke '80s Video Games. These Tracks Come As Welcome Relief From The Tension Daft Punk Ratchets Up On Almost Every Other Piece, Particularly "Rectifier" And "C.l.u." Encompassing The Past, Present, And Future Of Sci-fi Scores, Tron: Legacy Feels Like It Grew And Mutated From Its Origins The Same Way The Film's World Did. Without A Doubt, It's A Game-changer For Daft Punk." AMG Review By Heather Phares.

TRON: Legacy (Vinyl Edition Motion Picture Soundtrack)
New - LP - D001356101 ST01
Sealed, latest run of the 2022 2LP reissue. Gatefold jacket, no hype sticker. ""The Game Has Changed" is the name of one of the tracks on Daft Punk's score to Tron: Legacy, and it also fits Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo's music for the film. When it was announced that the duo would score the sequel to one of sci-fi's most visionary movies, it seemed like the perfect fit: Their sleek, neon-tipped, playful aesthetic springs from their love of late-'70s and early-'80s pop culture artifacts like Tron. However, Tron: Legacy takes a much darker, more serious approach than the original film and Daft Punk follows suit, delivering soaring and ominous pieces that sound more like modern classical music than any laser tag-meets-roller disco fantasies fans may have had. Tron: Legacy's legitimacy as a score may surprise listeners unaware of Bangalter's fine work on 2003's Irreversible; while that score actually hews closer to Daft Punk's sound, it showed his potential for crafting music beyond the duo's usual scope. Working with the London Orchestra, Bangalter and de Homem-Christo fuse electronic and orchestral motifs seamlessly and strikingly. "The Game Has Changed" may be the most dramatic example: It starts with a wistful wisp of melody that sounds like a ghost in the machine, then swells of strings and brass and buzzsaw electronics submerge but never quite overtake it. Elsewhere, "Recognizer"'s pulsing horns and synths and "The Son of Flynn"'s arpeggios and strings are so tightly knit that they finish each others' phrases. Daft Punk get in a few clever nods to Wendy Carlos' Tron score, from "The Grid"'s blobby analog synth tones to "Adagio for Tron"'s mournful sense of lost wonder. However, for most of Tron: Legacy, they're concerned with pushing boundaries. It's not until the score's second half that the duo's more typical sound emerges on "Derezzed"'s filter-disco and on "End of the Line," where witty 8-bit sounds evoke '80s video games. These tracks come as welcome relief from the tension Daft Punk ratchets up on almost every other piece, particularly "Rectifier" and "C.L.U." Encompassing the past, present, and future of sci-fi scores, Tron: Legacy feels like it grew and mutated from its origins the same way the film's world did. Without a doubt, it's a game-changer for Daft Punk." All Music Guide - Heather Phares
