"At their best, M83 invoke grandiose visions, melding luscious immersive sound with irresistible beats that rock the dance floor."

"It's utterly dreamy, but within the elegant perfumed beauty of these tunes there is a dark and brooding gothic edge."

"This album characterises dark and troubled times in a way that most other artists simply avoid."

"Webb seemingly loses himself in performance, allowing a certain eccentricity to shine. "Got this number in Paris," he boasts."

"Catering for his ageing fans this album deals mellow vibes in a blue-eyed soul kind of way."

"Apparat's vocals walk the line between despair and hope without invoking melodrama and sentimentality."

"Browne unexpectedly delivers an album of big brash pop tunes that spreads jam on some fine grooves."

"Although well into her 80s, Bhosle's greatest asset is her delightfully sweet voice that so capably runs up and down octaves to brilliant effect."

"It's the unfettered love of Caramel that sees Grant's vocals take flight and head towards somewhere more hopeful."

"It's a glittering sludge of noise that at once has heft, but with an underlying playfulness adds a certain lightness."
