Madeon - The City

"There is a place in the distance"

This track premiered a couple of days ago and I can't stop listening to it. I previously featured Madeon's epic Finale on the blog and raved about what an amazingly awesome producer he is. This is gonna be more of the same, though The City is far more uptempo and radio friendly. You can definitely see some Daft Punk influences in the track (it'd sound right at home on their Discovery album), but Madeon continues to do his own thing. I hear that he's been working with Lady Gaga on new material and I hope this is true. I can see him crossing over to even poppier music and being a huge success. For now, he's two for two when it comes to his most recent releases.

Madeon - Finale

"Go out fighting, go out young"

My Summers tend to be about ten times as busy as the rest of the year (that's why posts don't always come every day), and I'm often looking for some pump-me-up music to keep myself awake and energetic. I think this totally fits the bill. Madeon is an amazing, prolific, young new French producer. This is his latest track and it's an absolute behemoth of a song. Incorporating elements of dubstep, UK rock and dance, it's the kind of track that makes me want to run up a mountain, pump my fists and just scream up to the sky. In other words, screw energy drinks. This'll get you up in the morning.
