Awesome.

After several more listenings I'll expand on exactly why, but I completely dig it. Can't wait to hear the whole album and see how it stacks up with Saturdays=Youth

Listened to it yesterday, tweeted about it all day, and still loving it today! Can't wait for the full release and when M83 comes to Atlanta in October!

Everyone thank you so much. The reception has been pretty overwhelming! Anthony and I are so pleased. You never know when you're in the submarine making a double album for a year. As the creation finally becomes external, only then will you know if the fruits of your labors resonate with other souls.

I'm just so happy. The press is off the chain. Album coming in October, so hopefully people will likewise enjoy that.

Love the song JMJ..as a person who was a teen in the 80's I can tell you the song immediately made me think about some of the great music from that period...will you be touring with m83 this fall? I would imagine this music lends itself to some pretty cool live experiences.

Depends on how you define "touring". In a word, no. Maybe a show here and there? Quite possibly.
