After 29 years spent crafting dream-pop par excellence in his native France, M83’s Anthony Gonzalez packed up his keyboards and moved to La La Land a couple of years back, in search of a new challenge. Now returning to the public with two discs-worth of expansive electro-shoegaze, it’s safe to say he found it. The word “ambitious” doesn’t really do Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming. justice: Gonzalez has truly reached for the stars with this epic sonic adventure. Loosely based around the concept of dreaming, it covers everything from sublime orchestral arrangements, on ‘Soon, My Friend’, to air-punching, 80s-pop, on ‘Midnight City’, with pretty magical results.
