Porcelain Raft is going on tour with M83 and that is amazing because if you manage to make it to one of those shows you will actually witness an entire audience crying all at once. But that's not to say that "Put me to Sleep," from his upcoming Strange Weekend reaches for the same lofty, emotional heights of nostalgia that M83 goes for. Porcelain Raft's music has always been about tiny moments blown out only as big as our capacity to relate to them—so "Put me to Sleep" feels intimate, not angry or sad or happy specifically, just understanding. Strange Weekend is out January 24th.
