New - Daft Punk - Human After All - 2xLP

Widely regarded as an innovative synthesis of techno, house, acid house and disco, Daft Punk's 1997 debut Homework stands among the most influential dance music recordings of all time. 2001 follow-up Discovery found the duo embarking down converging paths of analog and digital music by incorporating samples from the late '70s and early '80s to flesh out a distinctly more pop-oriented sound leading to the smash singles "One More Time," "Digital Love" and "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger."

Daft Punk's third album Human After All was recorded in the duo's home studio in Paris between September and November 2004. A mix of guitars and machines, the long awaited 2005 effort takes us from the hardcore "Brainwasher" to the pumping "Technologic" with the addition of rockier tracks such as "Robot Rock" and emotional moments such as "Make Love." Human After All is a different facet of Daft Punk, the shimmer of vulnerability that defines every artist, and a prophetic indicator of what was to come musically.

"Daft Punk were the first to bring songwriting to dance music. They made dance songs popular because those were songs, not tracks. If you look at how big electronic music is now, everyone who is doing it big started by idolizing them." - A-Trak aka Alain Macklovitch
