M83 or M-83 may refer to:
M83 are a French electronic music band led by Anthony Gonzalez and currently based in Los Angeles, California, United States. Formed in 2001 in Antibes, France, the band initially was a duo featuring Nicolas Fromageau. They have released six albums and two soundtracks, including the Grammy Award-nominated Hurry Up, We're Dreaming.
Gonzalez and Fromageau parted ways shortly after touring for their second album Dead Cities, Red Seas & Lost Ghosts, with Gonzalez now recording primarily on his own, often with the help of his brother Yann Gonzalez, vocalist and keyboardist Morgan Kibby, and drummer Loïc Maurin. In 2011, Gonzalez posted an open audition on the M83 website for a multi-instrumentalist who could join the band. Nineteen-year-old Jordan Lawlor won the audition. Fromageau formed a new band in 2009 called Team Ghost and has released two albums to date.
Gonzalez first developed an interest in music while in high school. Together with Fromageau he formed a post-rock outfit called My Violent Wish. At the age of 17, Gonzalez bought a synth to record a demo, which he sent to a number of French labels. When Gooom Records appeared interested, he recruited Fromageau to "help me because I didn't feel like I had the shoulders to carry the project on my own". The band is named after the galaxy of the same name.
"Midnight City" is a song by French electronic music band M83. The track was first released in France on 16 August 2011, as the lead single from the group's sixth studio album, Hurry Up, We're Dreaming. The song was written by Anthony Gonzalez, Yann Gonzalez, Morgan Kibby and Justin Meldal-Johnsen. The track saw international success, peaking at number eight in France and charting on Billboard Alternative Songs and Rock Songs charts. Due to French network TF1's use of the song as the closing theme after the UEFA Euro 2012 football matches, the song topped the digital French chart. Elsewhere, "Midnight City" rose to acclaim in the United Kingdom in 2012, following its selection as the theme to reality TV show Made in Chelsea and prominent usage for the BBC's London 2012 Olympic Games coverage; peaking at number thirty-four on the UK Singles Chart.
Gonzalez's observations of Downtown Los Angeles at night helped inspire "Midnight City"'s lyrics. Gonzalez created the song's opening riffs by heavily distorting his own voice. The song ends on a saxophone solo played by Fitz and The Tantrums' James King. Regarding the solo, Gonzalez said: "Sometimes a song needs an element to be finished. You know that this element has been overused in the past and is considered cliched or cheesy, but the song needs it."

I do not value sunshine and sparkling fountains,
in the way which children do with enthusiasm.
I love the darkness and the shadows,
where I can be alone in my thoughts.
I come from an older generation.
Time is an abyss, a thousand nights deep.
Centuries come and go.
Centuries come and go.
People can't do things as they get old, it's terrible.
Death is not everything, there are so many things that
are worse.
Can you imagine that one outlives centuries,
