One year anniversary of RAM 10 feels like a good time to share this: I've spent the past several weeks making nine (9) unique animated sprites of Daft Punk through the years and editing them into a video project. This is a labor of love and I'm very excited to finally publish it! =)

i think someone's asked you your favourite daft punk album before, but if you had to rank all of them how would you do it?
have a nice day!
*in columbo voice* Jeez, I dunno.....
Here is my list (from least favourite to favourite) of the Baft Dunks
Tron Legacy (2010): This is the one Daft Punk album I really don't have much to say about it. I haven't seen the movie itself, and I haven't really listened to this soundtrack either. Derezzed and Son of Flynn are pretty good though.
Alive 1997 (1997): Contrary to what many believe, Alive '97 isn't that boring. It's a pretty good sampling of what Daft Punk concerts were like pre-robot and as a result it's very raw and primitive. In a good way, of course (it was recorded at the Que Club in Birmingham, one of the great bastions of the UK rave scene so of course it'll sound raw). 10 Minutes of Funk and the Daftendirekt remix are a highlight for me.
Homework (1997): Move the gun away from your screen, let me talk for a bit. I really like Homework, and I think a lot of the songs on it are perfect French Touch tracks (Around The World, Fresh, Indo Silver Club, the list goes on). But when I look at that album length I think I die a little. Other than that, an absolutely smashing record.
Human After All (2005): This is the first album on this list that I really love. Maybe it's because I really like repetitiveness, but this album almost acts as a brain massage. Maybe it's because of the robot humming in the title track, or the Madness Mantra style lyrics in Technologic or the calm instrumentations of Make Love, but it calms my nerves down, in a weird way. Give this album a second chance.
Random Access Memories (2013): This was the first Daft Punk I ever properly listened to, and I've got a very distinct memory of it, being in the back of the car on the way to an Elton John concert. The concert itself was alright, but nothing could compare to when I heard Giorgio by Moroder and Touch for the first time. Although we didn't know it then, I think this album serves as a perfect finale. It's an homage to the robot's heroes (prominent features from Nile Rodgers and Paul Williams), and to the ones they inspired (my boys Julian Casablancas and Pharrell are on two of the biggest songs off this album). Makes me tear up a bit every time.
Alive 2007 (2007): Ooh yeah baybee. Da reeeal shit. Literally every single song off this album fits like a fucking jigsaw puzzle. It was so good it made critics reconsider HAA. Television / Crescendolls. Prime Time / Brainwasher / Rollin' / Alive. Human After All / Superheroes / Rock'n'Roll. The list goes ON. There isn't a single moment off this record that I don't remember, especially the crowd, who sing Da Funk somehow. Best live show and best live album.
Discovery (2001): Not a single dull moment off this record. The instrumentation. The virtuoso-level sampling. The visuals. My absolute favourite album from Daft Punk, and my favourite album period.
I watched Funny Games (1997) on Saturday and have not stopped thinking about it since, but I’ve come to the conclusion that Paul and Peter are impossible to draw- like nothing I do looks like them
This is quite literally as close as I’m ever going to get
