Yes, I know. It’s all over the internet and unless you’ve been hiding under a soundproofed rock this past 24 hours you’ll have already heard this. But, whatever, it’s an awesome tune, I was bust yeaterday. What?
Anyway, M83 has given the world a taste of what to expect from his long, long, awaited new album, to be titled, ‘Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming’. ‘Midnight City’ is a pretty amazing teaser. Densely layered, yet spacious in it’s production (by Justin Meldal-Johnson, who has worked with Beck, Nine Inch Nails, The Mars Volta and Goldfrapp) the track is weird, but perfect, combination between 80’s Pop and modern Indie, as in it has a really 80’s vibe to it (and includes an epic, epic, sax solo) but doesn’t feel dated or retro. intelligent ElectroPop with so much going on in it, yet it all works together so well, and when the chorus kicks in, pure musical excitement.
‘Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming’ is released 18th October.
