Discovery (Daft Punk album)

Last updated

Daft Punk initially planned to release every song on Discovery as a single, according to Orla Lee-Fisher, who was head of marketing for Virgin Records UK at the time, although this plan was eventually shelved. [34] "One More Time" was released in 2000, ahead of the album's release. The album was available on 12 March 2001, [35] with singles of "Aerodynamic", "Digital Love", "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger", "Something About Us", and "Face to Face" launched afterward.

The ideas for the album's music videos formed during the early Discovery recording sessions. [13] The album was originally intended to be accompanied by "a live-action film with each song being a part of the film", according to Todd Edwards. The band decided instead to concentrate on an anime production. [34] Daft Punk's concept for the film involved the merging of science fiction with entertainment industry culture. [36] The duo recalled watching Japanese anime as children, including favorites such as Captain Harlock , Grendizer , and Candy Candy . [37] All three brought the album and the completed story to Tokyo in the hope of creating the film with their childhood hero, Leiji Matsumoto, who had created Captain Harlock. [37] [36] After Matsumoto joined the team as visual supervisor, Shinji Shimizu had been contacted to produce the animation and Kazuhisa Takenouchi to direct the film. With the translation coordination of Tamiyuki "Spike" Sugiyama, production began in October 2000 and ended in April 2003. [36] The result of the collaboration was an anime film, Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem , which features the entirety of Discovery as the soundtrack. [37]

Daft Punk adopted robot costumes in the lead up to Discovery's release. The group told the press they were working in their studio at 9:09 am on 9 September 1999, when their sampler exploded. They had to undergo reconstructive surgery, and, regaining consciousness, they realized they had become robots. [2] [13]

Shortly before the album's release, the group launched Daft Club, a website that offered exclusive tracks and other bonus material. Every Discovery CD included a Daft Club membership card bearing a unique number that provided personalized access to the website. [2] Bangalter said this was "our way of rewarding people who buy the CD". [25] The service provided by the site ended in 2003; most of the tracks were then compiled into the remix album Daft Club . [38]

Commercial performance

Discovery reached number two on the UK Albums Chart [39] and the French Albums Chart, [40] and number 23 in the US Billboard 200 . [41] It debuted at number two on the Canadian Albums Chart, selling 13,850 copies in its first week. [42] It was certified triple platinum in France in 2007 for shipments of 600,000 copies, [43] and certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America on 11 October 2010. [44]

As of May 2013, Discovery had sold 802,000 copies in the US. [45] "One More Time" was its most successful single, reaching number one on the French charts [46] and the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs charts, and reaching the top ten on seven other charts. It remained Daft Punk's most successful single until the release of "Get Lucky" in 2013. The album's fifth single, "Face to Face", reached number one on the Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs chart in 2004. Discovery had sold at least 2.6 million copies as of 2005. [47]

Discovery received generally positive reviews from critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream publications, the album received an average score of 74, based on 19 reviews. [48] AllMusic's John Bush said that, with their comprehensive productions and loops of manifold elements, Daft Punk had developed a sound that was "worthy of bygone electro-pop technicians from Giorgio Moroder to Todd Rundgren to Steve Miller." [16] Q wrote that the album was vigorous and innovative in its exploration of "old questions and spent ideals", hailing it as "a towering, persuasive tour de force" that "transcends the dance label" with no shortage of ideas, humor, or "brilliance". [54] Q named Discovery one of the best 50 albums of 2001. [57]

Joshua Clover, writing in Spin , dubbed Discovery disco's "latest triumph" and said although it "flags a bit" before the end, the opening stretch of songs was on-par with albums such as Prince's Sign o' the Times (1987) and Nirvana's Nevermind (1991). [12] Stephen Dalton from NME found the record's pop art ideas enthralling and credited Daft Punk for "re-inventing the mid-'80s as the coolest pop era ever". [11] In Entertainment Weekly , Will Hermes wrote that the "beat editing and EQ wizardry" still excite after Homework, despite the newly imbued sense of humor. [49] Mixmag called it "the perfect non-pop pop album" and said Daft Punk had "altered the course of dance music for the second time". [51]

Ben Ratliff from Rolling Stone was less impressed and wrote that few songs on Discovery matched the grandiosity of "One More Time". He found most of them "muddled – not only in the spectrum between serious and jokey but in its sense of an identity." [55] In The Guardian , Alexis Petridis felt Daft Punk's attempt to "salvage" older musical references resembled Homework, but was less coherent and successful. [50] Pitchfork critic Ryan Schreiber found the "prog and disco" hybrid "relatively harmless" and said that it was not "meant to be judged on its lyrics", which he dismissed as amateurish and commonplace. [52] Robert Christgau, writing in The Village Voice , facetiously said the album may appeal to young enthusiasts of Berlin techno and computing, but it was too "French" and " spirituel " for American tastes. [58] In a retrospective review for The Rolling Stone Album Guide (2004), Douglas Wolk gave Discovery three and a half stars and wrote that "the more [Daft Punk] dumb the album down, the funkier it gets" with an emphasis on hooks over songs. [59]

Legacy

Pitchfork named Discovery the 12th-best album of 2000–04 [60] and the third-best of the decade. [61] In 2021, Pitchfork included Discovery on its list of review scores they "would change if they could", upgrading its score from 6.4 to 10 out of 10. Pitchfork critic Noah Yoo wrote: "If scores are meant to indicate a work's longevity or impact, the original review is invalidated by the historic record. Daft Punk's second album, Discovery, is the centerpiece of their career, an album that transcended the robots' club roots and rippled through the decades that followed." [62]

In 2009, Rhapsody named Discovery the 12th-best album of the decade. [63] It was also named the fourth best album of the decade by Resident Advisor. [64] In 2012, Rolling Stone named Discovery the 30th-greatest EDM album. [65] Rolling Stone included it at number 236 in its 2020 "500 Greatest Albums of All Time" list. [66] The album also was included on BBC Radio 1's Masterpieces in December 2009 presented by Zane Lowe, highlighting its growing standing over the decade. [67] In 2023, British GQ ranked Discovery as the sixth best electronic album of all time. [68] In 2024, Apple Music included Discovery at number 23 on their “100 Best Albums” list. [69]

Several songs were sampled by other artists. Kanye West's song "Stronger" from the album Graduation features a vocal sample of "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger". A live performance of "Stronger" was featured at the 2008 Grammy Awards, with Daft Punk performing in their trademark pyramid structure while Kanye West was on stage rapping. [70] Wiley's song "Summertime" from the album See Clear Now features a sample of "Aerodynamic". [71] Jazmine Sullivan's song "Dream Big" from the album Fearless features a sample of "Veridis Quo". [72] "Veridis Quo" was also sampled in the Maluma song "COCO LOCO", from the album Don Juan (album) (2023). [73] "One More Time" was sampled in the Drake and 21 Savage song "Circo Loco", from the album Her Loss (2022). [74]
