If the alien rock band from Interstellar 5555 made a comeback, they would totally have a dance party to this song. This track is my personal favourite on the album – it’s everything you could want from Daft Punk and Panda Bear. It’s super smooth and sounds a bit like The Doobie Brothers - again, this is really, really not a bad thing. Is ‘tubleweed disco’ a thing? I feel like it should be a thing now, based on this song alone. While it’s quite possible this person is talking about the next track, this Tweet does raise an interesting point. Remember a few years ago, when every hipster dance act sounded a bit like Fleetwood Mac? I’m calling The Eagles as the next go-to ‘70s reference. ‘Motherboard’ has a touch of the psychedelic about it, as flutes and swirling synths give way to bleeps and bloops in the latter half of the track. It’s dripping in vocoder, and spaced-out synth sounds, and probably rivals ‘The Game Of Love’ as the album’s best bedroom track. Yep, this is one of the album’s more out-there, psychedelic tracks. The album version is slightly different from the single, and, um, it’s also really great. What is there left to say about this one? It’s been on your radio forever, every doofus with a YouTube channel has covered it, and yet it still holds up like magic. ‘Touch’ is easily the soppiest track on Random Access Memories, and it moves through an insane number of tones and styles over its eight-plus minutes, even incorporating a choir at one point.Īww, that’s kind of harsh, dude. The grown-ups like it too, because it has a lot of… I don’t know, dance music-y words and stuff. The kids like this one, because it has a lot of YOLO and SWAG. Some people feel like his distinctive, sneering vocals are too heavily treated…īut you can’t argue with the guitar solo.
The track feels like something off the back half of Discovery, maybe ‘Something About Us’. Julian from The Strokes makes a cameo on this track, and Daft Punk have manipulated his vocals to the point where he also sounds like a robot. This comment roughly translates as: “To listen to someone of the opposite sex (or same sex, depending on you) guaranteed success.” Yeah, Theo here knows what’s up.Įveryone’s a critic… 05: ‘Instant Crush (feat. This is yet another one of those slow, sleazy, robots-in-love tracks that Daft Punk seem to do so well. This big, sprawling proggy track is an early contender for fan-favourite. It contains not only the editorial and commercial photographs he's now known for, many which are of Grace, but also the sketches he made beforehand to art direct the photo shoots.Giorgio Moroder delivers a master class in respect for your electronic music elders, in a voice that sounds remarkably similar to Arnold Schwarzenegger. Goude worked on the book "to keep sane" after he and Jones had a child and became unhappy in their relationship. Kim Kardashian re-enacts Carolina Beaumont, New York, 1976, one of many images that are immortalized in Jean-Paul Goude's 1982 book, Jungle Fever. For example, he put Jones' body in an impossible pose for her iconic Island Life album cover, which has since been re-enacted by multiple models and muses ( including Amber Rosefor Complex's August/September 2009 issue).
Later becoming Grace Jones' partner and image consultant, Goude was an innovator in image retouching before computers made it possible.
It's worth noting that both PAPER covers are done in the iconic style of photographer and illustrator Jean-Paul Goude- a humorous, illusory style he has perfected since the '60s when he was as an art director at Esquire. And maybe that's the real point, since it's getting harder and harder for celebrities to shock the public or get our attention, even when they're completely naked. Now that there are hundreds of additional memes making fun of the cover, it's safe to say that Kim owns a significant portion of the Internet's attention today. Even if PAPER magazine's new "Kim Kardashian Break the Internet" cover hasn't caused the interwebs to completely shut down yet, it has broken the concentration of anyone using social media.
