NYC electronic duo The Knocks enlist vocalist Mandy Lee for their take on M83's 'Midnight City.'
CentryLink Field rocks even when it's empty! Very rarely do I get to mix my two passions: music and the Seattle Seahawks . Sure, I've made draft day playlists , but unless I'm writing about the Craig Terrill Band , I usually must post about one or the other. However, thanks to Jimmy Diebold and his directorial magic, he's found a way to incorporate both in an amazing stop motion video, personifying CenturyLink Field to the backdrop of M83's "Midnight City".* [...]

" Midnight City " es probablemente el sencillo más exitoso que haya tenido Anthony González en mucho tiempo. A continuación les dejamos el remix del dúo neoyorquino The Knocks para este, el primer sencillo del último disco de M83 , Hurry Up, We're Dreaming, en el que también podemos escuchar la voz de Mandy Lee acompañando la canción.
Considering how the proliferation of Lana Del Rey and Avicii sampling has officially surpassed the global population growth rate, it's surprising more artists haven't had their way with one of 20112s most popular songs, M832s "Midnight City." But if one group could give such a sacred track the respect it deserves, it's The Knocks-and they've proven themselves yet again with this cover, featuring vocals from the lovely Mandy Lee . If M832s anthem captured the anxious insecurity of 2011, The Knocks have brought it into the new year with the glimmer of upbeat optimism 2012 continues to deliver. The [...]

DZ Deathrays Review and pictures by Melissa Tan with additional photography by David Payne. St Jerome's Laneway Festival returned to the gates of Footscray Community Centre on Saturday. Walking through the gates at 11, it felt more like a small gathering on a residential road rather the large franchise patron St Jerome would have intended. The crowd dribbled in small droves as the morning went on, but the sun did not. As the afternoon went on, the raging celsius turned the pale, insipid skin of punters down [...]

Covering a song as universally adored as M832s sublime "Midnight City" is risky business, but New York's The Knocks , joined here by vocalist Mandy Lee , manage to lovingly recreate the night driving anthem and dress it in new, disco-bound clothes. The original is by no means a stranger to the dance floor, but with their cover, The Knocks make it that much easier to play "Midnight City" at your next glow stick-appropriate event. Listen and download this hump day treat below: Continue reading: MP3: The Knocks - "Midnight City" (M83 [...]

NY based producer/DJ duo The Knocks are back with their rendition of M83 's smash hit "Midnight City". Mandy Lee joins on vocals and collectively they absolutely kill this cover. With the level of success and coverage this record received last year, it's crazy to think that a rework could sound just as good if not better than the original, but these three just may have pulled it off.
So here's an interesting cover from one of my favorite music duos, The Knocks. They cover M83's hit song "Midnight City" and get Mandy Lee on some vocals. I'm not sure if I like the vocals on this song but I really dig the production as it doesn't sound so electronic and is more natural with [...]

Crozet: We'll Be Gone By Then - Crozet are a synth pop duo from New Jersey. Channeling influences from electronic masters like M83 , Crozet craft pop songs in a sometimes lo-fi vain, but maintain an upbeat tone throughout their debut with masterful skill. Synth pop has taken a number of different forms over the years, but few of those artists actually have the crossover appeal that Crozet has. This is primarily because their vocals, along with the ambitious programming, etc., are quite exceptional, but I'll get into that later... [...]
The Knocks might be the only duo out there, that iw ould still have any faith giving the much overplayed "Midnight City" any new life. Well, they recruited singer Mandy lee, and they proved me right again. Giving the track a spanking new upbeat, female-sung feel, dare I say this rivals the original in catchiness. Seriously, the hook on this, is undeniably HUGE. Enjoy the light-hearted prancing in the clip below.
You'll understand why there was a certain amount of trepidation when I saw the phrase "Midnight City cover" roll through the blogosphere this past week. After all, the crown jewel of M832s Hurry Up, We're Dreaming (our No. 1 album of 2011) was undeniably the adrenaline-soaked, saxophone-filled "Midnight City" (Sean's No. 1 song of 2011), [...]
