On their fourth full-length release "Saturdays=Youth", M83 deliver is a haunting nostalgic ode to the 80's. More specifically, a nod to new wave pop. Like The Cocteau Twins, Kate Bush and The Simple Minds, M83 have crafted sparkling synth pop songs that light up the sky. They demonstrate that a simple and good formula never stops working. Filled with their trademark shoegaze-esque washes of fuzzy guitar as well, M83 threaten to lose you in a foggy landscape of noise. "Kim & Jessie" evokes all of the synth soaked new wave that filled the soundtracks of John Hughes' films. "Skin of the Night" sounds like The Cocteau Twins in all their atmospheric brilliance - showcasing a collaboration of neon synths, pounding bass, and modulated vocals. Equally stunning, ethereal, and eerie, "Coleurs" is vintage new wave dance revitalized. Flashy synth lines soak the atmosphere over smoothly textured dance beats. "Up" is vintage Kate Bush, duplicating the essence of her music in a gorgeous homage. "We Own The Sky" is a vivid, electro-fused, cloud of blissed out synths and vocal harmonies. The atmosphere is cloaked in choking fog, leaving the whole album to feel like a dream. It also adds to the flashback-nature of the songs and gives it a mysterious depth. "Saturdays=Youth" is a flashback to a different era, no doubt lost forever but re-captured to live over and over again.
