On Sunday April 23, M83 came to Roadrunner in support of their new album Fantasy, delivering a sensational performance that wowed the crowd.

Jeremiah Chiu started things off for the evening, walking on stage to work with a suitcase-sized setup. He delivered an unflamboyant performance built upon looping beats and modular synthesizer to prime the audience for the headlining set.

M83 began their show with the first three tracks of Fantasy in order, and conjured an ethereal wall of sound that rose in intensity before leading into the rest of the set. The evening’s set heavily featured the new album, with a near complete performance of the LP, but fan favorites such as “Wait” and “Midnight City” from Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming made prominent appearances. Longtime M83 fans were also treated to a few songs from far back in the band’s discography, such as “Teen Angst,” and “*” that haven’t been seen on an M83 setlist in years. The soundscape created by M83 throughout the evening was at times chill and down-tempo, with an almost ambient vibe, while at other times funky and rollicking. The crowd followed along for the ride, and swayed, head-bobbed, and jumped accordingly. By the time the last notes of the appropriately-placed encore song “Outro” finished ringing throughout Roadrunner, M83 was taking a well-deserved bow to fans screaming their approval.
