Daft Punk is an electronic music duo consisting of French musicians Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter.
Random Access Memories is Daft Punk's proper new album in eight years. Its set for a release on the duos label Daft Life Limited, under Columbia Records. May 17th is the official release date, but your guess is as good as mine when we'll see an album download leak.
The album has been confirmed by several news outlets since it was listed on iTunes. It's been announced that Giorgio Moroder, Nile Rodgers, and Panda Bear will feature as collaborates.
A radio edit of first single "Get Lucky" leaked recently, and since there were fakes floating around with the ads and promos simply mixed together, many questioned the songs legitimacy. Turns out the radio edit was in fact real and you can read our full report about the singles official launch.
Below you can listen to Get Lucky making its debut on a dutch radio station.
Can’t wait!
Get Lucky, first live performance (or first live playback):

This album should be epic!
Get Lucky broke the record for most streamed song in one day in UK and USA. Awesome
It looks like this album is being released on May 17th in Australia, so we may be able to find some bootleg version around then!

I feel like I’ve been waiting “too long” for this album. It needs to leak now “around the world”. There’s just so much “emotion” when I think about this new record, I almost “short circuit”. For now this is the “end of line”. I’m going to listen to Get Lucky “One more time”, it sounds so “Fresh”, It’s “Off the grid”. Think I’m gonna “Fall” in “Digital love”.
Know that feeling bro xD
Episode 5 of the Collaborators with Panda Bear out now.
Here is the second single (Lose Yourself To Dance) with the download link!
[Link Removed: No downloads + see comments below]
Fake
It’s not eve Pharrell singing. Plus, any song with Niles on guitar would have WAY groovier chords and melodies.
I know it’s already been said, but that’s definitely not Daft Punk. The sound mixing is awful.
I’ve been waiting 8 years for this album, I’m sure it’ll be awesome !
I can’t wait for this…if they were touring somewhere in the US I’d be there ASAP but it doesn’t seem to be happening.
Did anyone else get really excited when they saw the article had some stuff added to it, thinking it leaked?
Yeah I thought the same thing lol! False hope :(
Sorry to disappoint!
It’s alright! You’re helping provide this free service to all of us. That’s more than enough.
Yeah no worries, it’s just cause we are so excited lol! Nice article too :D
This album seriously needs to leak, like ASAP.
The italian page Electro Italia just posted a status with written “Random Access Memories… LEAKED!”, do you know something?
It probably doesn’t mean anything. If the album really leaked you would be almost 100% certain that it did.
New Collaborators with Chilly Gonzales.

Apparently many people have been reporting the album just leaked.
Reporting on this site you mean ?
Would be quite nice if it has leaked! That said, give it a few hours and we’ll know for sure.
I was on soulseek the other night and, just for laughs, did a search for Random Access Memories. Tons of fake crap, most without song titles. Why do people do that still?
The reports of leaks are probably just more fakes capitalizing on the fact that DP finally allowed journalists to publish track by track reviews. With the rumored legal hoops you had to jump through to listen I doubt this thing leaks 3 weeks early (esp. after the HAA debacle)
I don’t know bigf74x, it could still leak quite early. Chances are there are a lot of copies around now, so it wouldn’t shock me if it happened, though I’d bet on it being a webrip. That said, what is HAA?
Nevermind that, I’m a dumbass. HAA=Human After All. Total brainfart on my part.
Normally I’d totally agree but I think they’re taking pretty insane precautions this time around. I’ll try and find the link but I remember a reviewer saying he had to sign more paperwork to listen to RAM than he did for his mortgage.
On general principle I agree, but there is a massive difference here between other releases. A lot of people use the Jay-Z/Kanye West Watch The Throne CD as an example of how not to let an album leak, but it almost certainly was in the hands of listeners before its release, Jay-Z simply spent an inordinate amount of money to have all links squashed by outside supporters. In other recent cases, like Justin Timberlake’s physical copies weren’t provided until very close to release or only to a very select few reviewers. Here, while there are parties and listening sessions, copies are being circulated in large numbers, probably in the mid-hundreds. It’s almost a certainty that someone has sold a rip of their copy to an elite bootlegger or collector which will result in it showing up. It’s only a matter of when.
I won’t say how but I can vouch that the Timberlake album was around prior to the iTunes stream. I’d heard some of it, I could tell it was legitimate, and they were the same versions on the album. The people that had it knew they’d be fingered if they leaked it though, and while I respected that, they weren’t going to share it with me regardless. I understood and respected their stance and still do. I know not everyone does respect that position, but these days that’s the best way to remain safe if you are blessed with early access to some of the most wanted content in the world.
This is torture! Reading all these track by track reviews of how awesome this album is!! This needs to leak soon or I’m gonna loose my shit.
iTunes will stream it on the 13th.
is this a theory or confirmed?
Whaaaat? o.o
It was confirmed on a german magazine, in the millions of reviews released yesterday. Can’t remember which, but you should find it on the Daft Club.
Last sentence here talks about stream on the 13th.

Update on iTunes stream: “”Das Album gibt es ab dem 13. Mai in voller Länge im Stream auf iTunes.””, the sentence that confirmed this, was deleted. I think Columbia isn’t happy about this being revealed.
If itunes is gonna stream on 13th maybe we’ll get a leak even earlier :D
Who knows? But 13th already makes me happy.
Also, after investigating with my folks on the Daft Club, we found out that the LYTD “leak” is in fact the song “Tonight is The Night” by Yellowire, which is nowhere to be found online now.
Or… That sentence was removed because it isn’t correct. But yes, it’s more likely they will stream it in advance to combat any physical leak.
Update: this is now news.
Yap, 13th that’s good for me!
this will leak way before the 13th
But it already is way before the 13th.
So the Japan bonus track got a name, FINALLY. ホライズン , which translates to Horizon.
So many reviews of the album and we dont get to listen anything, it’s not fair T.T
Not leaked yet. Why, Internet, WHY?!
