Additional notes

Album Notes: Recorded In Palais Omnisport Paris Bercy , June 14, 2007.
In 2001, Parisian house duo Daft Punk released a bestselling live album (ALIVE 1997) recorded at the height of their commercial success. It is a testament to the unit's creativity and staying power that their second live album, recorded a decade later, also entered the charts immediately on its release. Captured in June '07 at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy, the blistering set is presented with excellent sound fidelity, and includes their biggest U.S. hit, "Face to Face."

Album Reviews: Rolling Stone (p.196) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "This is the first-rate live album that Electric Light Orchestra should have made but never did."
Spin (p.119) - 4 stars out of 5 -- "ALIVE 2007 is the rare synth-based concert album to capture and transcend its creators' studio-bound essence."
Entertainment Weekly (p.71) - "The master DJs blend all their biggest hits into one enthralling, seamless mash-up of pumping bass lines, steady drumbeats, and cooing vocoders." -- Grade: A-
Uncut (p.89) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[This set] sees them mash the Kraftwerk-ed likes of 'Aerodynamic' and 'Robot Rock' into the girlfriend-on-the-shoulders set that's seen them own 2007's festival season..."
Vibe (p.110) - "Old cuts are supercharged....The effect is gripping..."
Q (Magazine) (p.115) - 3 stars out of 5 -- [I]t's a spectacular show, from the moment the kick drum starts to thud during 'Robot Rock' to the techno-rave meltdown..."
Mojo (Publisher) (p.100) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "ALIVE 2007 reveals that the duo still know how to target their electro-weaponry straight at the adrenalin gland."
Blender (Magazine) (p.144) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "The set captured here is a mash-up fest, with tracks colliding and merging at exhilarating, unexpected angles."
