Ten Thousand Favorite Songs, v. 11

-M83 manages to make nostalgic-au current- and future music, all while building natural excitement and extending empathy.  Strange brew.



--such a great career arc too, made music for the moody kids for years, now somehow realized how many people feel like outcasts, at least some of the time.  I always underestimated the value of big tent music.



---best French artist since Edith Piaf?



----weird analogue, but the only American band I can think of that manages to skew formula but cobble together dynamic, unpredictable songs that thrill



-----Adam Goldberg!
