As suggested last week, Daft Punk's Random Access Memories is getting a deluxe box set. The box is detailed at their website here and in the graphic below. It ships in early December and is available for pre-order now. It costs $275.
It's a cloth-bound box with a stamp of the album logo in gold foil. Inside, you'll find the record itself as a 2xLP with gold and silver foil labels and an eight-page book of lyrics and art, plus a bonus 10" with an extended version of Giorgio Moroder's interview from "Giorgio by Moroder". The album's audio comes digitally as well, on "gold and silver plated, metal encased" USB drives, which also include the bonus track "Horizon" and Daft Punk's self-remix of "Get Lucky", plus the full-length "Lose Yourself to Dance" video, the Random Access Memories television ads, and an extended version of their Coachella promo with Pharrell and Nile Rodgers.
The box also contains a 56-page hardcover book featuring photos from the recording sessions and video sets, plus a foreward by Paul Williams. And there's also "two sets of Robot helmet design schematics" and two "full body Robot design schematic posters." Not to mention an original film strip from the "Lose Yourself to Dance" video.
