Random Access Memories is the only Daft Punk album to top the US Billboard 200, and was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. It combines disco, progressive rock and pop, with collaborations with Giorgio Moroder, Panda Bear, Julian Casablancas, Todd Edwards, DJ Falcon, Chilly Gonzales, Nile Rodgers, Paul Williams, Nathan East and Pharrell Williams. It was the final album Daft Punk released before their disbandment in 2021.įollowing the minimal production of their previous album, Human After All (2005), Daft Punk recruited session musicians to perform live instrumentation and limited the use of electronic instruments to drum machines, a custom-built modular synthesizer and vintage vocoders. Recording sessions took place from 2008 to 2012 at Henson, Conway and Capitol Studios in California, Electric Lady Studios in New York City, and Gang Recording Studio in Paris, France. This theme is reflected in the album's packaging, as well as its promotional campaign, which included billboards, television advertisements and a web series. It pays tribute to late 1970s and early 1980s American music, particularly from Los Angeles. Random Access Memories is the fourth and final studio album by the French electronic duo Daft Punk, released on through Columbia Records.
