M83 - Junk (CD)

"On the last album, there was too much of me." That s how Anthony Gonzalez - the sonic auteur behind the sublime sound of M83 - describes the primary inspiration for his forthcoming album JUNK, released in April 2016. Album opener "Do it, try it" is a catchy yet melange of old school house music pianos, synthesized vocals and pop art bubblegum hooks.

For this album Gonzalez found himself listening to 60s film soundtracks and 70s groovy hits for a fresh timeless sound. Highly anticipated, JUNK is not just M83's first studio album in half a decade; it s also the follow-up to Hurry Up, We re Dreaming - which, upon release in 2011, placed M83 in the direct current of the mainstream.
