Daily Rec: Kim & Jessie by M83
Song: Kim & Jessie
By: M83
After I saw Ulrich Schnauss live earlier this year I went through an obsession with shoegaze. Although that has passed (for now), this song has stuck in there and is still a regular in my play lists.
It’s just such a huge tune. The opening screaming vocals are so delicate and haunting all you can do is listen in awe. Once you add extra vocal layers in the chorus the song becomes so emotional you’re mesmerised! I guess that’s really the idea behind shoegaze, huge reverb and echo with dreamy vocals. What’s really great though is the incorporation of a stadium-rock style guitar towards the end, it serves to make this a true epic!
As a side note I’ll add this in case anyone is interested. I discovered this song on an advert on E4 for 90210. It took me a little while searching online to find out who it was by, but at least this time it didn’t take years! So in case anyone finds this post searching for the same info here it is
