Song Of The Day: M83 – Do It, Try It
Some songs defy categorization. M83’s “Do It, Try It” is one of those rare gems—a kaleidoscopic blend of sounds that feels like it’s been pulled from the collective dreamscape of the ’90s, the future, and a euphoric warehouse rave all at once. From the very first note, “Do It, Try It” dares you to abandon reason and simply experience the ride.
The opening chant—“Do it, try it!”—is a bold command, a mantra for the adventurous. It’s laid over a hypnotic piano riff that feels plucked straight from the Euro Dance era, an unapologetic nod to the ’90s, when music was as fearless as it was fun. Then, just as you think you’ve settled into the groove, the song evolves, dropping into a euphoric chorus that’s pure rave energy. It’s the sound of neon lights, spinning disco balls, and the kind of joy that makes you forget everything else.
A Sonic Adventure in Layers
M83 doesn’t stop there. No, the track transforms again—this time with a swirling synth solo that feels both playful and cinematic, like a moment from a lost John Hughes film scored by synthesizers. And just when you think the track can’t get any more exciting, it hits you with that bassline. Bouncy, bold, and brimming with personality, it’s a sound that feels alive, as if the bass itself is dancing right along with you. It’s the kind of sonic detail that makes you hit repeat, just to relive the magic.
M83 has always been a master at creating music that transcends boundaries. Their ability to blend nostalgia with innovation, joy with melancholy, is nothing short of alchemical. With “Do It, Try It,” they’ve once again proven their knack for crafting musical masterpieces that feel as cinematic as they are experimental. This is not just a song—it’s an experience, an invitation to step into a world where sound becomes story.
