M83

I've recently discovered a band called M83. Their early-80's throwback sound is a nice change from today's music and even the cover is awesome. It looks like a scene from some remake of The Breakfast Club. The album is worth a listen and it has inspired me to inspire you.

I'd like you to find a copy of M83's "Skin of the Night" song and have a listen, then write me and tell me what it brings to mind. It's a sensual-in-an-80's-kind-of-way song, so here's mine as an example:

I picture some movie with Rob Lowe and Phoebe Cates. He is on the run after getting mixed up in a tax deal. The FBI wants him and the bad guys (his girlfriend's dad) want him dead. He and his girlfriend (Phoebe Cates) have run out of NYC and are on the east coast trying to make sense of things. In the middle of a heated arguement, in which Rob Lowe has revealed that Phoebe Cates' father is indeed the bad guy and wants them both dead, she grabs him and kisses him. A love scene ensues. This is the soundtrack to that whole thing.

Now, that movie never happened. It should have, but the band members of M83 look like they weren't even born yet, so there's the whole being a fetus thing working against them. I don't know of many fetuses that can play instruments.

Anyway..have a listen. You have three days. Let's hear your story.
You can find their album "Saturdays=Youth" on several sites.
