This is pretty good. I think I recognised Midnight City from This is pretty good. I think I recognised Midnight City from somewhere. Interesting mix of electronic and indie rock. Drum machine was a bit cheap, especially in the snare, but eh. 4/5 based on the 45min I listened to - even that was only about halfway. I got the data I needed.
Hurry Up, We're Dreaming is a nice French electronic / dream pop album. "Reunion" is a fantastic song. The first 6 tracks are great, but after these the quality drops and the songs get indistinguishable and boring.
I normally give up on albums that last this long but this was so enjoyable and so different.
This album has a kind of grandiosity that I like very much! Some songs are very bombastic. While others are much more danceable. I thought of M83 to be a one hit wonder (Midnight City still is a banger), but this album proves me wrong
This was some nice 70s jazz with good variety to keep it interesting. The usual sax, steel drum song Opus Pocus… a lot to like here.
Very nice! 4 stars.
A bit long, but forgiven as it has 2 songs from the travis rice "higher" snowboard film soundtrack - when outro came on, all I could think about was Travis dropping out of a helicopter onto a crazy Alaskan spine in 1080p glorious slowmo
Synth-pop, ambient, shoegaze. Agradable para tenerlo de fondo. Un 4, venga.
Very much enjoyed this and even knew some! Although I don’t know where from.
This reminds me of early 20s. And I really appreciate it for what it is. It's not something I would listen to regularly, a bit too intense and epic. Definitely suited me more when I was younger. But I still think it's good music!
Hurry up, it’s that one song from those TikTok’s and others! Feels like this could’ve been on the list as a representation of the modern electro beep boop music but we still got here
New to me. Perfectly nice, finds a nice groove. Midnight City and the last song, Outro caught my ear and I also enjoyed Wait. 3.5 rounding up because it happened to be a nice day for gentle.
Rating: 8/10 Best songs: Midnight city, Wait, Ok pal, Year one one ufo, Steve McQueen,
Modern electronic indie. Very much one of those "Two songs everybody knows and then 50 minutes of songs that vaguely sound like inferior versions of those two songs everybody knows" albums, but it ain't bad.
Familiar with some of the songs on the album, good modern indie music, just suffers from being too long an album.
A bunch of this felt very familiar to me and I can't figure out why. It was fine, didn't really wow me and I thought the overall sound was a little monotonous.
A solid indie electronic album. Midnight Coty has to be one of the most Shazam-ed songs ever. It’s been in so many movies and you hear that riff and it resonates. The whole album is definitely above average but it’s not as good as the first few songs let on. 7.0/10
Been there dreamt that
Fine, I guess
It’s always a nice feeling when you hear a song that recognize and have that oh huh it’s that song, from a band you aren’t familiar with from this list. Overall not really my thing but I think the music was decent.
3.5 if I could
Quite a good all-round album. Too long though
Not bad at all but was never really into them
Hey it's that band that wrote that one song also wrote 90 more minutes of music that sounds like that.
