A 1986 mustang slowly drives through a dark anonymous street, lit only by neon signs. It stops. The bass from the music inside the car can be felt in the air. The door opens and purple smoke comes billowing out. All that can be heard is the blasting synths of Anoraak. Anoraak is an electro act from where else, but France. Through their music and aesthetic they have been able to completely capture the 80’s throwback. Obviously influenced by the electro founders, M83, Daft Punk etc. but they have taken their sound in a new direction. Their album Nightdrive With You was just recently released and almost sounds like the soundtrack to a dark 1980’s futuristic sci-fi flick.
