About awakening, craving, and conquering, Hurry Up, We're Dreaming pushes into new vocal territory for M83. Here we see Gonzalez test out different ways of singing, ranging from a spectral breathy whisper to a howling scream. "I think it is a reflection of my 30 years of being a human being. It's a compilation of all my previous music together. It's a retrospective of myself", says Gonzalez.

M83 has also announced a tour that kicks off in Washington D.C in the US on October 28th �� where a second, late night show has been added due to demand �� for dates throughout the US and Canada, including a headline performance at the Fun Fun Fun Fest in Austin, TX alongside Lykke Li, Passion Pit, and Odd Future.
