WARNING: PARTY STARTER
Review of Discovery - Daft Punk by
tedwards542
Advantages: Applies to everyones taste.
Disadvantages: None
Daft Punk are a duet of two French robitically-masked musicians, their identities well hidden allowing them to bask in the glory of their Dance fame yet lead a normaly life outside music (if there is such a thing). But what they refuse to hide is their brilliance and this album optimizes their talent, it being filled with songs that take about a second to fall in a dope-like trance to.
The first song of this album, entitled "One more time" is exactly ... ...of the tune and the album in total. It also contains the original version of the duet with Kanye West on the track "Stronger," under the name "Harder, Faster, Better, Stronger." Daft Punk are heavily underestimated when it comes to their musical ability, as they started off in a rock band and were not always just a couple of DJs, they just progressed. Within the album there is vocals, drum, guitar, bass and keyboard all perfectly blended together ...

Collected - A truly amazing collection!
Review of Collected - Massive Attack by
fivepointedstar
Advantages: On the limmited edition it has all the music videos on it as well! An excellent touch I think!
Disadvantages: The cover is the only downside that I have found, it looks nice now but after time it's going to be a bit scruffy as it's made like a hard back book with no plastic covering.
Collected is a true master piece and one that Massive Attack should be proud of. It pulls together everything they have achieved over the years and pulled it together into one neat little CD. Also just for the added touch they have released a limited edition two disk version which includes all of their videos on CD 2 which I have found to make for an interesting viewing. The first CD includes all their great tracks such as Protection, Teardrop, Unfinished ...

Not So Daft After All
Review of Human After All [ECD] - Daft Punk by
dakyzerman
Advantages: Amazing, Lengthy tracks, Danceable
Disadvantages: Brain Washing, Lack of tracks
..."The Brainwasher" does exactly what it says on the tin. But not all the songs are Hardcore. If you just want to relax, songs like "Emotion" or "Make Love" is just the cup of tea for you.
Whether your Human or Robot this is a great album of choice. ...

Daft Punk certainly done thier Homework!!
Review of Homework - Daft Punk by
seismicjab
Advantages: Brilliant diversity, pioneering filtered French electronics
Disadvantages: NOTHING!
This is Daft Punk's first and by far the best album they have released to date. It is by the far the least commercial and most underground release as the newer releases like 'Discovery' tend to go a bit on the poppy side which is expected due to their success.
If you like that filtered French house sound this album ticks all the boxes. As well as the distinct sound theres lots of variation with some of the tracks bordering on techno. Favourite Tracks:
... ...tracks of all time - funky and fresh
Da Funk - Twisted downbeatish sort of breaks track - awesome video also
Burnin' - Filtery and funky house track - definitely a pioneer with the likes of Junior Jack and numerous other house producers following the trend.
Rollin' & Scratchin' - Tough and technnoey - Chicago influences apparent, contains some lovely crazy noises and whooshes also
If you are a techno enthusiast, please check out this page for ...
