Daft Punk - Random Access Memories

After a pre-release campaign that took on Hollywood-esque proportions, French pair Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo and Thomas Bangalter returned as Daft Punk with their fourth studio album Random Access Memories in 2013, with quite the A-list cast of collaborators. Two other iconic names - Giorgio Moroder and Nile Rogers - had some serious input into it too, so it's understandable that proceedings have a classic disco feel, with the ubiquitous lead single 'Get Lucky', undoubtedly the biggest tune of that year, a good indicator of the rest of the album's glitterball contents. Those hoping for a return to Daft Punk's rough edger Homework heyday may be disappointed, but there's no arguing with the power of the tunes themselves, many of which soon became huge pop monsters in their own right.
