Giorgio Moroder: 'New Daft Punk album is a step forward'
Disco legend praises Random Access Memories
- Haim - TBA: Haim have a lot to live up to this year, and so far they're showing no signs of underachieving. Currently taking SXSW by storm, the sisters have already garnered a ton of attention just by virtue of their Forever EP. So far they've been compared to everyone from Friends to Gloria Estefan. Here's hoping that their album will finally allow Haim to define their own sound. Either way, we can't wait to hear it.

Daft Punk have collaborated with Vice's Creators Project and Intel to create a new video series which interviews the big names they have teamed up with for their new album, Random Access Memories.
The first in the series features Italian producer Giorgio Moroder who explains how he first "met the synthesizer" and how he felt when he first heard Daft Punk's 'One More Time'.
Moroder helped to engineer some of Donna Summer's biggest hits and has worked with Daft Punk on their eagerly awaited forthcoming album Random Access Memories which is set to be released on 20 May, 2013.
The Italian disco legend says: "Daft Punk wanted to do something and do it in a way that's not done by just pushing a note or a chord.

"You definitely hear that it's nice and full; the drums and the bass have that warm, that full sound. This is like a step forward."
Daft Punk have worked with a number of different names including Nile Rogers, Panda Bear and Chilly Gonzales, all of which may be interviewed for other fascinating webisodes in the Daft Punk - Random Access Memories - The Collaboraters series.
