I just picked up this album while Christmas shopping, and it is quite bizarre, but the perfect background music that you can also listen to on an attentive level. The band is called M83, they’re from France, and they make the music dreams are made of. And when I say dreams, I don’t mean “One day I dream to be a rock star.” I mean that stuff that happens to you when you go to sleep and enter a world that doesn’t make any sense except while you’re there. Which is probably why the album (or should I say DOUBLE ALBUM) is called “Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming.” I also was listening to their previous album “Saturdays = Youth” while reading the Sandman Graphic Novel Series. Great music to get reading done, and it was the perfect soundtrack for a series about, well, dreams. So, I recommend the band, the album, the graphic novel series, and getting some sleep and having dreams of your own.
