2023 marks the 10th anniversary of Daft Punk's multi Grammy-winning hit record Random Access Memories.

To celebrate the milestone, this special expanded edition of the album contains 35 minutes of unreleased music in the form of demos and studio outtakes. The triple vinyl includes a special Lose Yourself To Dance poster and a 16-page booklet.
Daft Punk have never shied away from 'uncool' influences or sentimentality, and both are on full display throughout Random Access Memories. It's the kind of grand, album rock statement that listeners of the '70s and '80s would have spent weeks or months dissecting and absorbing — the ambition of Steely Dan, Alan Parsons, and Pink Floyd are as vital to the album as any of the duo's collaborators. For the casual Daft Punk fan, this album might be harder to love than 'Get Lucky' hinted; it might be too nostalgic, too overblown, a shirking of the group's duty to rescue dance music from the Young Turks who cropped up in their absence. But Random Access Memories is also Daft Punk's most personal work, and richly rewarding for listeners willing to spend time with it. - Heather Phares, AllMusic, 5/5
Having played a massive role in the rise of EDM in the late '00s, Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo turned away from EDM altogether for a Seventies disco record featuring appearances by Donna Summer producer Giorgio Moroder and Chic's Nile Rodgers (who played guitar on the gigantic hit 'Get Lucky'). The result was a mushy, otherworldly concept LP that was retro, futuristic, trippy, and weirdly human all at once. - Rolling Stone
