Ah ! This album !
I was a huge fan of Daft Punk and I bought that disc day one.
Well, I totally hated it when I first listened to it.
It was probably too different from their previous work.
Still, I listened it again, not that terrible. Again, actually pretty cool. Again, incredible. And after multiple listenings, I finally accepted that, at least to me, it was just a masterpiece and I totally missed it.
And now, already a decade later, I have a strong feeling of nostalgia every time I stumble upon it and it’s one of my favorite music albums ever.
Still, I cannot describe why I love it so much. It just talks to me.
I wouldn’t even recommend it nowadays because if you are like me, you’ll not appreciate it by listening to it once on Spotify.
Or maybe I’m wrong, it’s just awesome and I was the one having a block. In this case, I’d recommend you to avoid listening to this track or this track but go for the full album because it was totally made like a full art piece.
And it’s actually a nice album to listen in background.

>you agree to consult LiveATC.net prior to linking directly to any of the audio streams Why jump to that conclusion? She could have consulted with them while building this.
I would hope crediting and/or linking LiveATC would be a part of such an agreement. More likely, they are breaking TOS.
There is a link to LiveATC. It isn't clearly labeled, but that isn't required in the TOS and since this site has been up since at least November of 2021, I expect they're fine with it.

#54Maybe you should become an ATC if you're that fascinated from listening to it

#55This is great. Wish it had more international airports (could only find US and canada) edit: I see you can request them since they are added manually
Cool, hope the poor site author is not deluged with too many requests from us HN nerds outside the US (I already put in a bid for Zurich and Geneva, if that saves on duplicate requests...)
I understand the feeds come from LiveATC, which has a FAQ answer explaining why UK feeds are legally forbidden [0]. Anyone happen to know why there are no German/Austrian airports on LiveATC [1], is it a similar legal issue?

It's absolutely a masterpiece. There's no small amount of irony that THIS is the album that shows them to be Human After All, considering just how much live-action instrumentation is on this album. It demonstrated this flexibility and scope that their typical pure genius sampling hadn't necessarily ascended to.
My favorite track is almost certainly Moroder. What a thing to gift us: a brief autobiography/biopic from the grandfather of electronic music himself, explaining how he came to create the ancestor sounds of what we're listening to... and then on top of which some of the goddamn best drums (and real drums, to boot) and just an absolute banger.
Couple that with Nile Rogers appearing multiple times with some of the best guitar licks... the genius of Contact, building this narrative of an alien from Apollo 17 recordings... and the beautifully textured... almost "chunky" Motherboard. Man, this album is great. I really love Daft Punk.

According to wikipedia [0], ATC in Germany is subject to the Fernmeldegeheimnis [1]. It’s the same law that protects snail mail and other communications. Anyone who wants to even listen to ATC has to be certified [2], and then has to comply with that law.

Daft Punk and Gorillaz do that to me.
First listen of new albums, it's a no.
Then with each and every listen, it gets better and better.
I have no idea why that is.
