The highly anticipated new album ‘Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming’ is released on 17th October through Naïve. The single ‘Midnight City’ released last month, has already gained M83 much acclaim, getting A-listed at 6 Music and Q Radio, as well as bagging plays on Radio 1 from the likes of Annie Mac, Rob Da Bank and Nick Grimshaw. The track hit Hype Machine’s number one spot twice, first in its own right and again with this brilliant mash-up by White Panda, pairing ‘Midnight City’ with Kanye West’s ‘Good Life’ to create ‘Midnight Life’:
