Over the last few weeks it was rumored that Daft Punk would be releasing a deluxe edition of their most recent album, “Random Access Memories”. Just the other day those rumors transformed into fact as Columbia Records announced a box set filled with collectors items ranging from posters to flash drives. Priced at $275, the Random Access Memories Deluxe Set could be considered a gift from the heavens to die-hard Daft Punk fans. I have to admit, this offering is really cool. Check out the details below and pre-order your box set as soon as possible.
Random Access Memories Deluxe Set
The Deluxe Box Set Edition is presented in a cloth-bound box (333mm x 333mm / 13” x 13”) stamped with the Random Access Memories logo in gold foil on the cover. All individual contents are separated by vellum dividers printed with a circuit pattern texture inspired by the gloves of the Daft Punk Robots.
