Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I’ve been listening to M83 since 2003’s Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts, which was when Nicolas Fromageau was with Anthony Gonzalez. I loved that album. But they’ve changed, become more pop less ambient / shoegaze, less gritty. And I keep wanting to hate what they do now thus me avoiding their last album like the plague. But truth be told, I don’t. They consistently release good pop tunes. And there ain’t nothing wrong with that. Congrats M83… And what’s that wailing at the end? ace is what it is… (PS. If you haven’t heard Dead Cities it’s pretty amazing… highly recommended)
