d'you wanna play with me?

it's no lie, I love songs that sample audio tracks of children. they are wonderful and adorable and so full of imagination, I don't know what to do with myself. it may come across as a bit of cheap gimmick from time to time, but when it comes to my dearest M83... I have the utmost faith in its artistic authenticity. Speaking of, it might be a bit of an early prediction, but Hurry Up We're Dreaming has my unconditional sponsorship for best album I've heard this year. It's explorative and soaring and emotionally poignant and just... everything I love about music. i clearly have a soft spot for raconte-moi un histoire, but i would recommend the full album with everything i have. don't waste any time - get it. any way you can.

M83 - raconte-moi un histoire

the city is my church

oh hey y'all,

do you remember M83? I DO! anthony gonzalez is the creator of one of my favourite songs in the entire universe AND one of the best album covers ever - it's like playing pictionary for angsty 80's/90's movies - AND one of the only musical acts i know of named after a particular region of outer space (unless perhaps you count young galaxy)

well in any case he is back with a new single, midnight city, and i am smitten. the track is layered, varied, and features the soaring vocals unique to M83 that always remind me of flying. take a gander and see if it tickles your fancy; and be ready to pounce when hurry up, we're dreaming comes out sometime this year. maaaaybe NOW?

how about now?

M83 - midnight city


M83 - we own the sky
