Daft Punk New Album, 2013 Tour: Daft Punk "Get Lucky" with Comeback Single / "Collaboration is Cool" Says Pharell Williams

Daft Punk is back on top with their latest single, "Get Lucky" off their upcoming album Random Access Memories. "Get Lucky" beat out Imagine Dragons and Justin Timberlake as the top streamed track on Spotify (April 22-28).

Daft Punk's first album in eight years, Random Access Memories features contributions from Nile Rodgers, Giorgio Moroder, house producer Todd Edwards, Animal Collective's Panda Bear, and guest vocals from Pharell Williams and Julian Casablancas.  

"The idea of people collaborating is cool," Pharell recently told Rolling Stone. "But I think more than anything else I'm just excited about the change, a new wave in music. There's something happening in the ether, and you know about it or you don't. And if you know, it's because you're probably somewhere engineering the change. If you don't know about it then you're probably somewhere missing your call, and you're gonna end up chasing it."

Daft Punk fans may be a little shocked with the move away from over processed electronic sounds on Random Access Memories. Instead, on the new album, Daft Punk is moving towards a more human element.

"Get Lucky" is more of a straightforward disco [champagne infused] track than an electronic song.

Grammy nominated, Canadian musician [who lived in Paris for a while] also collaborated with Daft Punk on Random Access Memories. Though he's not usually a fan of collaboration, Gonzalez made an exception for Daft Punk.

"The fact that they were asking for this musical bridge to happen just shows that they have absorbed a lot of what classical composers were obsessed with," Gonzalez said, "which is that musical key dictates so much of what someone feels."

Daft Punk's Random Access Memories is due out May 21st.
