M83 Set New EP Release

03/22/2012
. Mute have set a May 8th release date for M83's Reunion EP on May 8th, 2012. The EP features the second single to be taken from the M83s fifth album Hurry Up We're Dreaming, the double album that hit number 15 on the US Billboard charts. Mute sent over these details and some news about some live performances:

The single will be released with a stunning and diverse remix package of 6 exclusive re-works of the track, which include Mylo, Sei A, The Naked And Famous, Polly Scattergood, and White Sea.

Mylo leads the Reunion remix charge with his trademark funky synth bass lines and beats, cleverly weaved into the spaced-out original vocal track to create a contradiction of sounds and another hit for M83. Sei A, the up and coming Glasgow based producer, is hailed as one of the most exciting producers in the techno-house scene, and has given Reunion a glimpse of Glaswegian industrialism through his loop filled minimalist mix. The White Sea remix is a spaced out dubstep nugget, whilst The Naked And Famous take an altogether different route with their rework by building the track into an electronic cacophony of synths, guitars and drums, much the way M83 do performing live.

M83 hits electronic music's largest stage this weekend for Miami's sold out Ultra Music Festival, where 200,000 fans will be watching. The band will take the Live Stage on Saturday March 24th at 8:00pm. Additionally, new shows have been added to the tour including The Fox Theatre in Pomona, CA on April 12th and Osheaga Festival in Montreal (date TBC). Having extensively toured since the release of the album in October 2011, M83 is selling out shows across the world, and has become an unstoppable force of musical nature. Full list of dates below.
