We know the new record is out, but take a trip down memory lane and remember why you still love Daft Punk when you hear the Seven Handle Circus perform their string-laden bluegrass rendition of One More Time. (Thanks Brandon!)

Musician Sam Westphalen plays “the whitest version ever” of MC Hammer’s 1990 classic, backing up his quirky Aussie rap with his impressive percussion guitar style. Needs more Hammer pants. (Thanks Patrick!)

Who can blast out the more precise musical lip syncs from a variety of genres – Jimmy Fallon or John Krasinski from The Office? If you can take about 9 minutes out of your busy day, you can find out right now. (Thanks Phil!)

Daft Punk’s latest album won’t be released until 05/21/13, but the robots have made Random Access Memories available for streaming via iTunes. Click the thumbnail to launch the program and play the entire stream.

Watch Jack Conte, an animatronic face and a hexapod play a song about effects pedals. Behind the scenes here. You can download the EP for free, but you might also want to donate at least $1 to Conte for his efforts.

Collective Cadenza has done medleys about wooing before. Recently the group put its collection of modern serenades to good use, brightening up the day of random ladies (well, except for the last one) in New York City.

The classic Russian theme song to Tetris gets a catchy ragtime redo by musician Scott Bradley. We can close our eyes and visualize countless bricks dropping into perfect lines already.

YouTuber MrSolidSnake745 cranks out another Daft Punk classic on the most appropriate of musical instruments – a set of eight floppy drives. He also offers up One More Time, Something About Us and some Digital Love.

The Gregory Brothers jumped onto the story of Cleveland’s heroic Charles Ramsay quicker than you can say “big testicles,” with their songified version of his colorful post-rescue interview. So grab some ribs and sing along!

YouTuber gundersonmunderson uploaded this video to share his SEGA Genesis-style intro for Drive. But the real star here is the chiptune version of A Real Hero, which he made using an emulator of the SEGA Genesis’ sound chip.

Another head-boppin’ remix by Nick “Pogo” Bertke brings the denizens of Bikini Bottom together for some good times. So do the thing with the thing, please, crank up your speakers, and check it out now.

Sounds Just Like presents pairs of songs that sound alike. You can listen to samples of either song; sadly you can’t play both samples at the same time. You can also search for a song and suggest pairs of songs.

One-man orchestra Jason Yang’s latest clip is a lovely medley of themes from The Game of Thrones, The Hobbit and The Dark Knight. Just one question: When is the movie coming out?

If Ellen has sent her staff to find this young boy in the Philippines to sing on her show, would we be disappointed? No. Aldrich Talonding has big talent and soul in a kid’s body. (Thanks Fred!)

Erock returns with another rockin’ arrangement, this time shredding The King of Pop’s classics Smooth Criminal and Beat It on his electric guitar. We’re betting he couldn’t play as fast wearing a sequined glove though.

(NSFW: language) Well, that explains things: Bitchy Resting Face is a disorder that affects millions of women each day; thanks to our friends at FoD, recognition of the problem is the first step to a cure. (Thanks Joshua!)

A nifty popped-up cover version of Daft Punk’s Get Lucky by musician George Barnett, which we dare say, is as good, or maybe even better than the original. Of course, George can’t take his show on the road without cloning himself.

Because Rhett and Link enjoy local late-night commercials, they created this one for Arlen Transmission in Burbank. It features Goorgen, the singing mechanic. Satisfaction guaranteed.

Musician Denise Reis can play two instruments at the same time. One of them is the guitar, the other is the trumpet – or is it? Listen as she Dreams of Jeannie, gets Bewitched, and then Gets Smart. She adds vocals to the mix here.
