Daft Punk have shared new version of ‘Motherboard’, succeeding the statement and announcement of the first track from the impending Drumless Edition of Random-Access Memories, today the second track “Motherboard (Drumless Edition)” has been unveiled.
The drums and percussion kick in rapidly on the original recording of “Motherboard,” a fan favorite track, that emulates a continual occurrence of quick-wittedness throughout.
By shedding the drums and percussion, this new edition becomes more meditative, and spectators can determine fresh layers of arrangement that they may not have noticed before: bass lines, wind instruments, and sounds that are evocative of previous eras of music. The track release is accompanied by a visualizer featuring illustrations from Daft Punk’s long-time creative director Cedric Hervet.
Daft Punk’s ‘Memory Tapes’ content series continues, most recently with episodes featuring Pharrell Williams and Nile Rodgers. Directed by long-time Daft Punk collaborator Warren Fu, interviews for Memory Tapes were conducted at Henson Studios in Los Angeles and Gang Studios in Paris, where much of Random-Access Memories was recorded. The episodes encompass new dialogue as well as archival footage and never before seen studio footage of Daft Punk as they constructed what became their final album. Random Access Memories (Drumless Edition) is available to pre-order now and will be released on November 17.
