This is not house, and neither is the album version. I might go as far to say that maybe it has been influenced by house, but it is definitely not house or even "prominently" house. I'd say most of anthony's music is influenced by early post rock from the mid 90's - 2000 and other various shoegaze, experimental bands and electronica artists such as Sigur Ros, and Brian Eno.
I don't understand how you don't see my point. I never said that this song was just purely house music. I (in an indirect manner) said it was influenced by house music, and then it is morphed, twisted, and reworked into a full blown M83-style song.
Have you listened to this song before? And I don't mean just this live version. It has a lot of elements of house music.
This live version is very post-rock-like. And that's expected of a live M83 show. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but it's not the same as the album version.
Have you listened to the song? Bumping 4/4 drum beat through the entire song, synthesizer riffs, and electronic percussion. I can see post-rock in the song, but house is definitely prominent.
your right, it is quite good how they can turn something as complex as this kind of music and transform into something so brilliant :) but its not that uncommon-other bands do a similar thing-like mogwai with electroney rocky music :)
It's just one guy in the studio who writes all the music (anthony), but he can't do it all live so he gets a band together. The girl actually sang on his new album though.
purely awesome... i'd be humping the shit out of the equipment too if i was making music like that.

when are all you people out there going to stop the incessant noise in your heads that cares when people make negative comments
think of all the negative energy and time it takes for you to stoop to the exact same level
people have stupid thoughts and comments and have different opinions
so be it
ask yourself why do you care so much to prove a silly person who is being negative wrong???
this song is incredible!!!

The ability of this band to take a house song/groove and make it one of the most emotional songs I've heard in a long time is really just awesome.

yeah, couleurs is my favourite song of his, off any album, but I dont see how it can be called house, its closer to post rock than anything.

doesnt mean its house, synthesisers, 4/4 beats? yeah, that stuff originated from house alright, but this very song is very far removed from house
