Daft Punk - Veridis Quo

Daft Punk's 2001 album Discovery was a big departure from the house sound of 1997's debut album Homework, but personally I like it better. I haven't played it in ages though and when a few days ago I heard this track I didn't recognize it right away. "Veridis Quo" is a stunningly beautiful instrumental track, sampling Cerrone's "Supernature" and Secret Service's "Aux Deux Magots", coming across as some kind of futuristic sci-fi love song without words. To me it sounds as if the road to last year's perfect Random Access Memories album starts here.
