m83 junkAnthony Gonzalez, aka M83, announces the highly anticipated details of his forthcoming full-length album, ‘Junk’, to be released via Naïve Records on April 8th, 2016. Following the critically acclaimed silver album ‘Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming’, featuring Grammy nominated single ‘Midnight City’, and two triumphant years of world touring, Gonzalez - who serves as M83’s musical architect, songwriter, front man and primary vocalist - returns with an artistic evolution, explaining, “I want to show different sides of me on this album. I want to come back with something more intimate, yet somehow with…less me!”

Feeling a renewed kinship with Gonzalez’s early musical inspirations like Tangerine Dream, Aphex Twin, and genre-expanding visionaries like Brian Wilson and Kevin Shields, Gonzalez both returns to his roots with this album, yet makes a logical leap forward. And while M83 albums has always combined genres in a nostalgic and provocative way – from Shoegaze and ambient to synth-pop and ’90s alt-rock – for ‘Junk’, Gonzalez experiments adventurously with sounds and styles he’s never previously attempted in his music. “All my albums have layers of eclecticism to them, but with this album I wanted to take that even further,” he says.
