Daft Punk Unveil ‘Drumless’ Version Of ‘Random Access Memories’

The release rounds off the album's 10th anniversary year and follows on from a wider reissue earlier this year

Daft Punk are releasing a ‘drumless’ version of their fourth and final studio album, Random Access Memories.

Due out in November, the alternate version of the French duo’s 2013 album will round off its 10th anniversary year, which previously saw a wider reissue of the original record with added bonus material back in May. The Drumless Edition of the album strips away all of the drum and percussive elements from the original tracks. You can preview the new version via ‘Within (Drumless Edition)’ above.

Columbia will release Random Access Memories (Drumless Edition) on November 17, 2023.
