Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by John Richards, host of the Morning Show on KEXP, is "Mirror" by M83, a 2023 single on M83 Recording Inc/Mute.
It's not déjà vu: if you feel like you've heard this M83 song before, it's possible you have! Today's Song of the Day dates back to the 2011 album Hurry Up, We're Dreaming, and was released as a hidden track found as a secret download in the packaging of the CD. For those who don't own a CD player anymore, the song was then re-released as a Record Store Day exclusive 7-inch single in 2012. And now, the fan-favorite track has been re-re-released as a digital single.
"“It’s a track that never came out digitally and we close our shows with that song," M83 mastermind Anthony Gonzalez told Billboard. "The response of the audience has been great so far, and it’s an unknown song that deserves to be properly released in my opinion.”
