Perhaps unsurprisingly, when M83’s Anthony Gonzalez told Consequence of Sound that “EDM is probably one of the styles of music that I hate the most,” not everyone was best pleased. Fans of the genre, who embraced M83 in 2011 when he had a hit with Midnight City, had to suffer the indignity of hearing Gonzalez say: “Sometimes I wish that I could erase that fanbase but I don’t think it’s possible to do that.”
But wait, because M83 has now apologised and suggested that something was lost in translation.
