Daft Punk have revealed a new Spotify playlist of the music that was inspiring them during the making of their latest album, Random Access Memories. Listen to the tracks below.
Unsurprisingly, the list features artists that appeared and collaborated with The Robots on the record, such as Chic, The Strokes, Animal Collective, Giorgio Moroder, N.E.R.D. and Panda Bear.
There's naturally quite a strong disco and Motown element to the playlist, alongside some surprise inclusions from the likes of James Blake, Bon Iver, Jai Paul and Chilly Gonzales.
The full tracklist is:
1 Chic 'Good Times'
2 Phoenix 'The Real Thing'
3 The Strokes'Tap Out'
4 Carly Simon 'Why'
5 Animal Collective 'My Girls'
6 MGMT 'Electric Feel'
7 Giorgio Moroder 'Tears'

10 Chilly Gonzales 'Knight Moves'
11 N.E.R.D.: 'Hypnotize U'
