I would be more excited if it were unreleased work from the Homework project. "Get Lucky" is pretty much the only track that came out of RAM that I can revisit with as much appreciation as when I used to listen to it. The bonus tracks are basically drafts. Listening to a track featuring people talking in a recording studio isn't much to get excited about.

Truly one of the greatest albums ever made IMO.

Rather odd thst a retrospective of Giorgio Moroder is mid credited to some masked 21st century bandits who basically sing “we have nothing original to offer the world” over and over in an autotuned vocoded voice

I personally loved Give Life Back to Music! How can you not like the guitar riff?

Funny, RAM is my favorite Daft Punk album. I love every song

I'm a huge fan of Horizon, one of the original bonus tracks from RAM.

Find yourself a copy of the Alive '99 CD. It's a live set from the homework era and is awesome.

It also came with a video DVD of a few tracks performed live, sans robot suits

Funny, because Get Lucky is the pop-iest, worst song on RAM. Possibly the worst take you can have on the album

It’s catchy as hell though. And I can play it for my EDM hating friends and they don’t complain. So there’s that.

Touch is the worst song on RAM. Instant cringe.
