Among the many collaborators on the upcoming new album Daft Punk is Italo Disco legend Giorgio Moroder and he has spoken for the first time about his role on the much-anticipated Random Access Memories.
In a 'Creator's Project' video by Vice, Moroder indicated that the album will be a giant leap for the dance music genre. "Daft Punk wanted to do something and do it in a way that's not done by just pushing a note or a chord", he said. "You definitely hear that it's nice and full, the drums and the bass have that warm, that full sound. This is like a step forward."
Moroder is just one of several co-conspirators lined up for the Random Access Memories, with Nile Rogers, Chilly Gonazales and Panda Bear also adding their talents.
Random Access Memories will be released on May 17th.
