“Just a simple touch and it could set you free/ We don’t have to rush when you’re alone with me.” Tesfaye also teamed with Daft Punk for the album’s title track. Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo formed Daft Punk in Paris in 1993, in hopes of defining the French touch style of house music. Featured in their “Epilogue” video announcing their retirement last week, Daft Punk described this track as the core of their fourth and final studio album “Random Access Memories.” Vocals by Paul Williams reminisce on the feeling of touch, invoking the ever-present human versus robot dichotomy central to Daft Punk’s work. The rest of the album is a disappointment considering the craze around “Get Lucky.” In 1992, Daft Punk’s once and future idol Brian Wilson said, “It was a childhood dream of mine to make music that made people feel loved.” That same year, Thomas Bangalter and Guy Manuel de Homem-Christo formed the indie-rock band Darlin’ (named after the Beach Boys song, natch) with Phoenix’s Laurent Brancowitz. “I Feel It Coming” was the last single for the band and a collaboration with Canadian singer the Weeknd, from his third studio album, “Starboy” (2016).
