Hump Day Hit 2/1/17

I liked #HumpDayHit so much, I decided to do it again this week. In these tumultuous days we’re living in, I know you don’t get a chance to take a break this often. Daft Punk feels your pain too. Two Frenchmen with a penchant for electronic music teamed up 24 years ago, and have made an everlasting relationship that has birthed an amazing array of pioneering music. Their music is one I’d call transcendent; with many of their songs providing an escape to another world. While “Discovery” is probably their most critically acclaimed album, and for good reason, “Random Access Memories” is their most commercially successful, their first #1 album and winner of the Album of the Year Grammy in 2014. Teaming up Pharrell, pioneer for his work with The Neptunes, and Nile Rodgers, pioneer from his work with Chic, for two songs on the latter, this song, “Lose Yourself to Dance”, feels like a precursor to the other collaboration, “Get Lucky”. Both going hand in hand for what I’d consider an unforgettable night. One where there are no worries. Where friends and I just click, and build those random access memories as we lose ourselves to dance.
