The absolute best piece of advice I can give to any fan of daft punk,or even someone who is acquainted with daft punk in general is this

This is NOT Discovery 2.0 This is NOT Homework part deux This is NOT Human Afterall 2:Electric Boogaloo

This is an evolutionary phase of two individuals who just want to make music.

I love love love Discovery for what it is,but I would absolutely hate to have a couple of variances of Digital Love spread over a few albums.

Any musician can attest to the fact that music will always need to move forward,whether or not it's the right step forward is completely subjective,but what is certain is the fact that Daft Punk have taken their next steps in a direction that will continue to define them as a group,instead of being defined as a genre.

If their iconic helmets and excellent discography weren't enough to separate them from everyone else in EDM,this new direction certainly will.

This is an evolutionary phase

You're joking right? There is barely any evolving going on, and that's part of the issue I have with it. Daft punk wanted to revive that 70's and 80's groove/funk, and there's nothing wrong with that. But there is nothing new going on here, and on top of that the arrangements boarder on easy listening, or music you might hear on the weather channel. I feel like the entire theme is bordering on pretentious, with Daft Punk literally stating that they are "giving life" back to music. Give me a break.

Edit: I'm not Tiesto, but I do make some of my own music. So here's some shameless self-promotion...feel free to be as critical as I am. And if you live in PA message me, we need a bass player and a drummer!

I completely agree, I told my friend who had yet to listen to it at the time that it was more like Various artists feat. Daft Punk. I can't believe Daft Punk gave Pharrell so much publicity.
