That literally makes zero sense, although I've come to expect your posts to be as such.

I found it sounded too polished. It just lacked character. The mix was trying to sound like the 70s steeley dan but it just sounds so vanilla.

you made a really lame insult. I suggested a recipe for a better one. It does make sense if you aren't a retard.

Pop music marketed to younger people sounds too polished and lacking of character? No way, I refuse to believe it!

No, it makes sense in your head because you're a retard. I'm sorry, that was insensitive. Because you're autistic and read/write at an elementary level.

You know first time I heard Get Lucky I was like meh...
But it's growing on me. I hope someone makes a proper summertime remix of it. I think the vocal could be excellent.

I agree. Pharell's vocals on that track are pretty bad. He sounds almost off key in a few spots.
I rather like the vocals on this version.

Oh . :stongue:
Look, he said that it sounded too polished and lacked character. It's a pop album that is being heavily targeted towards a younger (read: 15-25) audience. Most pop albums that have been targeted to that same audience in the past twenty years have, more or less, sounded the same way. Would you disagree?

Holy , do... do we all possess certain CHARACTER TROPES that tend to clash?

Well, I think Daft Punk have a far larger fanbase than just 15-25 year olds, and I also think it's a bit silly to base our critical framework of their material on demographics detailed in brightly coloured pie charts currently being enthusiastically pointed at by some android executive in a boardroom high above the streets of Mega City One in the upper reaches of the glittering corporate ziggurat that is Sony Music's headquarters.
I also think Daft Punk are more or less the most popular act in dance music, rightly or wrongly, so their work is subject to a much higher volume of discussion and analysis than it perhaps deserves. I think they have also made some ostentatious comments in press-releases about how fake electronic music sounds and how they've made a point of using live musicians for this album, which elevates their change in methodology from a creatively-exhausted band trying to reinvigorate their process to Daft Punk opening their work up to broadside cynicism if it fails to live up to the grandiose billing. I've heard the lead single a few times and even without analysing the technical and musical aspects it seems wholly regressive and defunct to me, basically a repeat of what acts like Chromeo were doing 7 years ago, which themselves were obvious pastiches of a large pantheon of prior music, and so Daft Punk are open to all kinds of justifiable critical sniping as to their conservatism, even if the album is perfectly fine on a technical level.
Most of all, I think this isn't the first time Ritchie has started a thread just to on the new Daft Punk release in an extremely belligerent style, and from the moment he clicked New Thread he was just gagging for someone to take issue at him being so aggressively dismissive of what is, at worst, a mediocre dance record so he could launch into his usual patterns of self-gratifying condescension and abuse, because he is a childish clown with self-confessed social dysfunctions. The fact so many people are camped in this thread offering up -awful responses to his baiting rather than seeing the blindingly obvious means this thread is an irredeemable cluster- full of stupid people arguing past each other about nothing, while somewhere in the background a valid discussion fails to materialise. All there's left to do is pull up a deck chair, crack open a cold tin and mock everyone who wanders into your cross-hairs.
