M83

M83 is the musical project of French musician Anthony Gonzalez, who emerged from Antibes, France, in the early 2000s. Known for lush, cinematic soundscapes that blend shoegaze, dream pop, synthpop, and ambient electronica, M83 initially began as a duo with Nicolas Fromageau before Gonzalez became the primary creative force behind the project. M83 achieved breakthrough success with the 2011 album "Hurry Up, We're Dreaming," which featured the global hit "Midnight City" and garnered critical acclaim for its sweeping, nostalgic melodies and innovative production.

Over the years, M83 has continued to push boundaries with albums like "Before the Dawn Heals Us," "Saturdays = Youth," and "JUNK," demonstrating a unique ability to channel emotion through ethereal synthesizers, stirring vocals, and experimental instrumentation. Gonzalez’s evocative soundtracks have also made their mark on film and television, enhancing M83's reputation as a vital force in contemporary electronic music.
