Saturdays = Youth

M83

A cinematic love letter to 1980s adolescence. Shimmering synth-pop meets shoegaze textures to create a lush, neon-lit world of suburban longing.

April 14, 2008 · Mute

A shimmering, euphoric longing for the intensity of being young and misunderstood.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the ambient piano of the opener into the driving, neon-drenched pulse of Kim and Jessie.
The massive, eight-minute dancefloor ascent of Couleurs that strips away the pop structure for pure rhythmic hypnosis.
The spoken-word bridge in Graveyard Girl that captures the earnest, slightly cringey poetry of being fifteen.
