Daft Punk are back for the first time
in eight years and they’ve brought plenty of human friends along
for the ride this time.
You won’t have escaped the chart
dominating single, Get Lucky, featuring Pharrell Williams’ smooth,
vocoder-free vocals and Nile Rodgers on a real-life guitar and you’ll
be pleased to know that the rest of the album lives up to that
smasher of a debut tune yet is still a classic Daft Punk creation,
despite the collaborations.
The enigmatic duo have again offered a
perfect split of post-disco floor-fillers and impossibly smooth
grooving ballads, with each track nodding heavily to their best-loved
stuff from the first two albums, Homework and Discovery.
Taking their time with this comeback
has definitely paid-off creatively and rights the wrongs of their
slightly less than stellar third album, Human After All.
Perfect.
