The album s release didn t span much further than Europe until September 2005, when Mute Records reissued the album antibes M83 band for a worldwide release. M83 has also remixed Placebo s Protège-Moi, Goldfrapp s Black Cherry, Depeche antibes Mode s Suffer Well, and Bumblebeez 81 s antibes Vila Attack. Similarly, M83 s songs have been remixed by Gooom labelmates Montag and Cyann & Ben. In 2006, after the Before the Dawn Heals Us US antibes Marineland tour, Anthony Gonzalez continued to explore a musical direction already heard on earlier M83 tracks and began writing and recording a collection antibes of ambient works.

M83 is an electronic/dream pop act by French musician Anthony Gonzalez. It is named after a spiral galaxy, Messier 83.

The same year, M83 provided a remix of The Pioneers by Bloc Party, which was also included on Bloc Party s antibes remix album Silent Alarm Remixed. M83 s second album Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts followed in spring 2003 (and summer 2004 in North America) to widespread critical acclaim.

The resulting project is called Digital Shades Vol. It is intended to be part of an ongoing series of ambient works. Saturdays = Youth, M83 s fifth studio album, was released in April 2008.

After worldwide touring for Dead Cities resumed, Nicolas Fromageau left the band. It was the occasion for me to do a tribute to this 80s music, but also a tribute to my teenage years.

The album was recorded primarily at his home studio with the assistance of Antoine Gaillet. 1 and was released in September 2007 with a sleeve illustrated by Laurent Fetis (known for his work with DJ Hell, Beck, and Tahiti 80).

It was recorded with Ken Thomas (known for his work with Sigur Rós, The Sugarcubes, Boys in a Band, Cocteau Twins and Suede), Ewan Pearson (who has also produced for Tracey Thorn, The Rapture and Ladytron) and Morgan Kibby (of The Romanovs). and now Gonzalez records mainly on his own, often with the help of his brother Yann Gonzalez, vocalist/keyboardist Morgan Kibby, guitarist/bassist Pierre-Marie Maulini, and drummer Loïc Maurin. In spring 2001, M83 released their self-titled debut album.

The band was founded in 2001 by Gonzalez and former member Nicolas Fromageau in Antibes. Gonzalez returned to the studio to record the third studio album Before the Dawn Heals Us, which was released in January 2005.

The album features a more focused approach to song structure and form, and Gonzalez stated that the main influence of the album came from music of the 1980s: I think that 80s music is such a brilliant period for music history. Because the main theme of the album is being a teenager, and being a teenager means a lot to me. In December 2008, M83 supported Kings of Leon on their UK tour.
