They have announced their new album called "Random Access Memories" -> www.randomaccessmemories.com. The release date is 21. May.

So far, two ads on SNL have been aired:
First: http://youtu.be/922-y641Ask
Second: http://youtu.be/xqNQRTlhY7I

7 collaborator-videos out, last update 11.05.2013
Episode 1: Georgio Moroder -> http://youtu.be/eYDvxo-M0OQ
Episode 2: Todd Edwards -> http://youtu.be/yf2bu0P_4Vo
Episode 3: Nile Rodgers -> http://youtu.be/da_Yp9BOCaI
Episode 4: Pharrell Williams -> http://youtu.be/6QVtHogFrI0
Episode 5: Panda Bear -> http://youtu.be/Q8jmBbG4T6c
Episode 6: Chilly Gonzales http://youtu.be/Kc3I0Ent9Zg
Episode 7: Dj Falcon -> http://youtu.be/gca9hrmVapE
Episode 8: Paul Williams -> http://youtu.be/C683ACADxkw
Album is available on Amazon for pre-order right now!

Impressions: From the ads and the collab videos, it does sound like they are going back to the more funk/disco-sound they had in Discovery, which for me atleast, is not a bad thing at all, quite the contrary!

The collaborators that have been confirmed so far are all awesome producers in their own respect.

Will post updates as we go along the road to May. 21, but feel free to step in, discuss and post rumours of your own!

//edit

So, Coachella aired a commercial for the new album, with Pharrell on the mic! Check it out -> http://youtu.be/CGP2rkuEDl4
Also, an exclusive interview with Rolling Stone Magazine -> http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/ … m-20130413

I CANT WAIT!

New soundcloud mash-up of all aired spots -> https://soundcloud.com/alexandre-karpin … cky-with-1

//edit 13.05.2013

Oh man, I'm so excited for this album! I loved the bit at coachella, good thing someone there had the presence of mind to whip their camera out and film it for us haha.

Excitement is building around Daft Punk's infectiously funky new single, "Get Lucky" featuring Pharrell. Once you've heard it, you may not be able to get it out of your head.

I'm getting confused on what's the original one, but my god I've probably heard this song about 30 times today, still loving it!

choice nr. 1

choice nr. 2
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xX9PVc8m … 1366030926

choice nr. 3(think its a remix, and i find it even better)

Apparently this might mean something, http://clients.allaccess.com/mail/D/daf … snl-h.html .

If they do drop 'Get Lucky' this Friday, it would make my week.

Apparently this might be fake. If it is though, it's the best damn fake I've ever heard.

In other news, "Giorgio By Moroder" has been leaked. I haven't heard it myself, but people on www.thedaftclub.com says its amazing. I'm staying away from leaks as long as i can until the cd drops in my mailbox.

A video teaser Thingamajiggy has been released on Vimeo from Nabil Elderkin, who has done photoshoots for Kanye West, videos for James Blake and the like.

Check it out here: http://vimeo.com/65874505

First radio interview with aussie radio host Pete Tong here:
http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/media/s3756590.htm

Rumours also has it that the album has been shipped to record stores worldwide, so a leak of the album itself is imminent.

//edit

Also, new collab-videos are up for those who missed it!
Check first post!
