Discovery is an album which was released in 2001 by French duo 'Daft Punk' features 14 superb songs all of which played the soundtrack to the movie "Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem"

This is one of my favourite albums I've ever owned. I love all of the songs on it which is unusual for me.
I will now comment on the my main favourite songs of the album.
"One more time" is an excellent party/clubbing track just to get a general good vibe going. If someone has heard a daft punk song it's almost definitely gonna be this one.
"Aerodynamic" features no actual lyrics or words whatsover, but is still a great listen, with a very exciting beat mid song and an interesting rhythem throughout.
"Digital Love" is my personal favourite of the album, with great lyrics at the beginning and the perfect song whether you're on your own, with that special someone or enjoying or to set a calmer mood at a party.
"Harder Better Faster Stronger" has a long intro (51 seconds until the lyrics start) but that doesn't hinder it's impact. The lyrics can be repetitive but it works very effectively in creating a simple but interesting song for any situation.
"something about us" sets a moodier love-story tone with only a few lines in the song but it's a powerful song none-the-less.
"Face to face" Feels sort of like a cross between the more cheerful beats of earlier songs combined with a slightly less cheerful tone of 'something about us' creating a unique song that can lift the listeners spirits or calm them if stressed.

Discovery is a masterpeice of alternate music you won't be likely to hear in clubs, at parties or played on the radio (Apart from 'one more time' when it first came out, it was a hit and played often in clubs etc!) which genuinely relieve me on the more stressful days and lift my spirits on the sadder ones.
I also love listening to some of the earlier tracks in the album along to games on the xbox 360 (Crackdown, call of duty 4, geometry wars etc) as I find the exciting beats often suit the gameplay of such games.

You could look on youtube for these songs if you're unsure if you're going to like them, but the album itself is usually really cheap as it is, yet worth every penny imo :)

I hope you find this review helpful

Daft Punk's breakthrough album, Discovery, is quite simply musical genius.
Discovery is an album that sits alongside the Beatles 'White Album' and Michael Jackson's 'Thriller' as a masterpiece of music to be cherished and replayed.

Each song has it's own personality, but together chronicle an animated story that is told through sound rather than word. In particular, 'One more time' and 'Harder, better, faster, stronger' display the range and wit Daft Punk possess.


I'd recommend Discovery to anyone who likes rewarding music.

One of their best albums. great tracks including their most famous ones one more time and airodynamic. If this CD doesnt get you dancing nothing will.

Bought this album after hearing One More Time on radio 1, the whole album is brilliant, the high points have got to be Harder Better Faster Stronger, Aerodynamic & Face To Face. Well worth a listen, Classic Daft Punk.

What can I say its simply just a great album from a great band there music is brilliant and this album just goes to show that.

the album is fantasic and is great to listen to
what super super album.

what a great buy ! ! !.

Discover a new taste in music with Daft Punks Discovery CD. High quality music has always been produced by Daft Punk.
All tracks are recommended, all tracks are uniquely produced and give you a buzz. Most recommended tracks on my behalf are, tracks 1, 2, 4, 7, 9 and 11 [One More Time, Aerodynamic, [Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger], Superheroes, Something About Us and Veridis Quo].

The CD is so good that I keep listening to it over and over again.
The music in a way is very calming, but there's some tracks in which you have to get up and dance to, it's impossible not to!

The music will not give you a headache and all of the tracks unlike other albums have their own beat and style, no track sounds like another track which is what Daft Punk fans want, hearing the same beat in a tune can get quite borig at times.

I give this album 5/5 because like I stated in my other reviwes, Daft Punks music has always been excellent, and will always be excellent.

Thankyou for reading!

Had it, lost it, missed it, got it again, electro dance with soul, said (though as a sequel, the mystery of the first still lingers misamalike)

Bought this album when it first came out in 2001. I personally think it is ground-breaking for various different reasons. One of the best dance albums of all time, and Aerodynamic is a song I will never get bored of hearing.

The first four songs are unbelievably good, but then it drops down in quality a bit. Aerodynamic has a brilliant guitar solo that sounds so good.

Whilst a far cry (?) from the house-infused persuasions of 'Homework', 'Discovery' is a confident stride in a new direction, marking a change in both visual and musical style, the liquid metal embellishment of Daft Punk's both pervasive and influential early work (those unfamiliar will doubtless turn nostalgic attentions towards 'Da Funk' and 'Around the World'), and not much has changed .. The facade, the album art, is very much attentive to the clarity found on the front sleeve of 'Homework'. Both albums share an at-a-glance eponymy. 'Discovery' breaches the at-once house music constraints of former efforts and instead attaches itself to what people would call a 'synth-pop' or 'disco' style. 'Discovery', the girl's choice of the Daft Punk discography. 'Discovery', Paving way for the more overt zest and gusto of 'Human After All'. Most people will take a shine to this album. It is only after you have broken the seal and overcome the initial turbulence found within its opening tracks, that you will find solace within simple, enjoyable, musical production. No more a champion than its predecessor (or successor), 'Discovery' is a wonderful, though painful, album. It will leave you at once submissive to Guy-man and Bangalter, and ashamed at the fact that you didn't get there first.

I decided to buy this album as it is my favourite and i found it dirt cheap!. And what a buy some of the best music around is within that CD i particularly like the tracks, One more time, digital love and high life. In my opinion some of daft punks greatest works yet! Would definetally recommend to any music enthusiast.

This, the french duo's second and easily best album has the pair evolving their french techno disco sound to the mainstream.

Where the first album contained a couple of stand out singles, Discovery had every single song released due to the amazing quality of each track.

From the number 1 opener "One More Time", through to the piano grooved final track, Discovery will have you dancing, playing air guitar and working harder, better, faster, stronger.
