I originally found out about M83 through TheSixtyOne. I confess, I’ve been spending more time on this site then on the 10 or so other music blogs that I regularly browse, but I’ll probably get back to most of these blogs in the next week or two.

M83 is one of those bands that do particularly well in the independent music discovery engines. They cross a variety of styles, and appeal to music fans of most of these styles, including indie rock, electro, new wave, and experimental. They remind me of the band Mew quite a big, especially their song The Zookeeper’s Boy.
